1) You mentioned earlier that Kat was created long before you created the Sequential Art comic, and that she was a superheroine. What kind of powers was she going to have?

2) How long does it usually take to draw a comic page, and what kind of steps do you follow? Do you create a rough sketch by hand (paper and pencil), or do you do everything on computer?

1 - They were goung to be electric in nature.

2 - A B&W page takes 2 to 3 hours for me to finish. Colouring adds another 2 to 3.

Scholars of the Therin Collegium, from their comfortable position well inland, could tell you that the wolf sharks of the Iron Sea are beautiful and fascinating creatures, their bodies more packed with muscle than any bull, their abrasive hide streaked with every color from old-copper green to stormcloud black. Anyone actually working the waterfront in Camorr and on the nearby coast could tell you that wolf sharks are big aggressive bastards that like to jump.

Carefully caged, starved, and maddened by blood, wolf sharks are the key to the customary highlight of the Shifting Revel. Other cities have gladiatorial games; other cities pit men against animals. But only in Camorr can you see a specially armed gladiator (a contrarequialla) battle a live, leaping shark, and in Camorr only women are allowed by tradition to be contrarequialla.

This is the Teeth Show.

Locke couldn't tell if the women were truly beautiful, but they were undeniably striking. They were all dark-skinned Camorri with muscles like farm girls, imposing even at a distance, and they wore next to nothing - tight black cotton shifts across their chests, wrestler's loincloths and thin leather gloves. Their black hair was pulled back under the traditional red bandanas and threaded with brass and silver bangles that caught the sunlight in chains of white flashes. The purpose of these bangles was a matter of argument. Some claimed that they confused the poor eyesight of the sharks, while just as many claimed that the glare helped the monsters better sight their prey.
Each contrarequialla carried two weapons, a short javelin in one hand and a special axe in the other. These axes has grips enclosed by full handguards, making them difficult to lose; they were double-headed, with the expected curved blade on one side and a long, sturdy pick-head on the other. [...]
Contrarequialla fought across a series of stepping platforms, each about two feet wide and raised half a foot out of the water. These platforms were set out in a square grid, four or five feet apart, leaving plenty of room for the opposition to swim between them. The women would have to hop between these platforms at a rapid pace to strike out at the sharks while dodging leaps in return; a slip in the water was usually the end of the contest.

If you saw Kat, Scarlet, or Pip (or, more accurately, real life anthropomorphic animals resembling them; I mention the characters simply to give you a better picture of what I mean) ambling down the sidewalk, what would you do?
