Claws.
Again, sorry for confusion on the Page title/number. In the original order of pages, this one would have been right after the original Page 237, but when I revised the final order of pages it turned out being placed right after Page 228.
I wanted a better transition into the part where Bel attacks Liam. It ...

Concentration.
The set up from magic lore to Norman testing out his affinity was rough. I felt like it needed some extra OOMPH to really bridge the gap/transition. And Cal was the perfect demon for the job lol.
PLUS THIS TRANSITION WORKS SOOOOO MUCH BETTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR π₯΅

Devil on the shoulder, part II.
I liked this page because it also gave some nice dialogue exposition on Cal's views of the contract, the Kaiβba, and the mark from his father.

Devil on the shoulder.
I REALLY wanted to add an aside for Cal. He hasn't had many of his own moments outside of his interactions with Norman since he was summoned. So I felt like I needed to give him one before Volume 1 ended.
Plus, HOW COULD I RESIST the opportunity to take on the "angel/devil on the shoulder" b...

I wanted to give Norman somethingβanother scene of him working on his magicβ to really show his determination, but also showing his self-doubt.

Irresponsible.
For this part in Chapter 5, I wanted to flesh out Norman's conversation with Cal. We had a LOT of lore dump in the part where Norman explains how magic works. I wanted to offset that with a refreshing dialogue between our two golden boys.

DopplegΓ€nger.
One of the things I regret about the Cerberus/Jin fight in Chapter 5 was I didn't give enough space for the fight to really BREATHE and explore the world building I had set up.
Like what are demon sins? How do they work? What is the power structure among demons? Why is it important?
So I...

Sandtrap.
I hated the original way I wrote for this fight scene. It was very blocky. I also feel like I didn't give Daryl enough wiggle room in the original script to create effective panel transitions. So the original Page 156 got a bit of a rework and we added Page 156A to smooth out the change :)

I don't like seeing you starve.
For this page, I wanted to set up the long ass exposition Norman gives Cal on page 144 better. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the way Page 144 is written, I just felt like it needed more time to build into the dialogue there. So 143A fills the mold :)
