Ok, I admit, this one got shorter shrift than some of the others. Totally on me, John gave me plenty of time (and a great bit of inspiration)
The labyrinth is an ancient symbol. Painted and carved across the world for millennia. Compared to the course of the stars, ripples upon water, the ridges on our fingertips. Perfecting and mastering the labyrinth may be one of humanity's oldest magical acts. #FolkloreThursday

Time was short, on first read, I knew I wanted to play with a spiral shape - setting the panels in such a way that you'd have to read it in a spiral. I *think* it works, but not 100% sure. And then the final panel - totally on me - I thought it would be a funny undercutting of the building seriousness of the strip (and the dialogue here is mine rather than John's).
Now, my original plan was to have John walk through a labyrinth as he talked you through of all these things and ending with him facing something? Unsure what.
But I didn't have the time, so, instead, it was large images. Which meant grabbing stuff from wikipedia. It looked like this:

I did toy with expanding the images out to make our first photo comic, but figured I should put some effort in.
Next week's will be better.
