"Three Suns"

• Panel 1 (top wide): Nova, wearing a tank top and underwear, walks through a bright alien landscape with orange trees and three suns overhead, reaching toward a tree as heat shimmers in the air. • Panel 2: She leans against the tree, where a small stream trickles down its trunk like a natural spring; her clothing begins to smoke from the heat. • Panel 3: Nova cups the water and drinks from the tree, her clothes now smoking more heavily. • Panel 4: She winces sharply, arching her back as the heat intensifies and her clothing starts to burn against her skin. • Panel 5: Nova urgently begins pulling her top off, trying to remove the overheating fabric.

• Panel 1: Nova yanks off her remaining clothing, bending down to remove her underwear as smoke rises around her. • Panel 2: She pulls the garment free and tosses it aside as it begins to ignite. • Panel 3: Fully nude, Nova recoils as the discarded clothing erupts into flames on the ground. • Panel 4: She reacts to the heat on her body, her back now burning and her skin beginning to smoke as she tries to steady herself. • Panel 5 (bottom wide): Nova turns her head sharply toward something off-frame, alerted by a sudden noise, as smoke drifts across her face. A caption reads “To be continued.”
