Ricky's quick to reset the tone!It's always the most fun for me when there's a lot of tone shifts in the character's performances on a page. We haven't often seen Ricky looking pensive or without his shit-eating grin!In dialogue heavy pages like this one, it's important to remember the dialogue is still a visual element of the page. In the last panel, splitting the dialogue around the hand on Freddy's knee is a sort of punctuation that only comics can do!
