Needs Help: Losing A Shoe In The Struggle

While I don't consider the current image terrible, does anyone else think it looks a little text-heavy, and less effective than one that actually shows someone losing their shoe? That being said, the panel of the comic that shows the girl losing her sandal shows her in silhouette, so I don't know if that works any better.

Not feeling the current or the suggestion. I built this from the GITS example on the page...is the shoe loss clear enough?

I think the second frame by itself would be clearer and look better.

Yes, the first frame was confusing at first. I take it those hands are pulling that guy into the wall?

[up] Yup. I'm fine with just using the second panel, but the first definitely establishes that it's a struggle.

2.2 works on its own.

2.2 is solid enough.

2.1 is confusing. 2.2 doesn't show much of a struggle but I prefer it over the combo.

It's not terribly clear, but it works.

I agree, the GITS:SAC picture works a bit better than what's currently up there.

I can live with the second image on its own.

Good enough; the second panel is up and tagged. Caption?

Something that mentions a struggle, perhaps.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.

No consensus on a caption; locking up.
