It's My Story and I'll Die If I Want To

I bet you thought I'd forgotten about this, right?

The start of year two had Halifax lying in the courtyard behind the Dead-End Bar, claiming to be dying of injuries he evidently had -- but nothing more was forthcoming. Everything else, remember, has been his own commentary of the situation to whoever is on the other end of that phone -- ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, place your bets now.

This is a slight modification of my usual colour style in order to achieve this grayscale effect - drawing it the way I did with that first part just didn't seem feasible, since that took me three or four days in itself to draw.

You'll also notice I'm getting a lot of mileage out of PotatoShop's cloud effect. That really is a picture of the moon behind it, if you're wondering, not just a white circle. More mileage also out of the drop shadows that PotatoShop seems to like doing.

Best bits: Halifax's bloody hand; the moon peeking out from behind the clouds.
Worst bits: dodgy brick wall backdrop that has erroneous lines on it; backgrounds also a little repetitive overall.
