Panel 1
(Exterior of an office building, music notes are floating out of a window.)
Caption: The following day...
Panel 2
(Inside the office, Miss Match looks distressed, covering her ears. Lightning Lady is also covering her ears. Through a glass window, Jeremy is seen playing a clarinet for Cassie Cruz, who sits at her desk.)
Miss Match: What’s that horrible noise?!
Panel 3
(Miss Match and Lightning Lady continue covering their ears in agony.)
Miss Match: Jeremy has been playing for Cassie for hours!
Panel 4
(Close-up of Miss Match and Lightning Lady, both wincing from the sound.)
Miss Match: This is terrible!
Lightning Lady: Tell me about it...
Panel 5
(Inside Cassie’s office, Jeremy enthusiastically plays the clarinet, with music notes filling the air. Cassie sits at her desk, looking unimpressed. A cobra in a basket, presumably meant to be charmed, looks just as miserable.)
Lightning Lady (off-panel, in a thought box): Just our luck we got a tone-deaf cobra!
VILF Shirt, Part FiveWell, the comments and the voting pretty much lined up behind Design Number One and Design Number Four. Four got more votes, but both sides were equally vocal.
So, I made a command decision and went with Number Four. I think it’s the most easily identifiable as a villainess. I think Number One was cleaner — and as a design itself, it’s my own favorite — but the image has to help bring the concept of “VILF” home. That’s where Number Four was a little stronger.
Now, let’s talk color. What color shirts would you guys be willing to buy? My gut feeling is black, but I also like the Navy blue and the red. Speak up!
I think we’re going to be hitting pre-orders by next week.
Thanks for all the feedbak, folks. 🙂
