UNION



I don't know what these rather baroque images are from. Maybe April knows(?)
There is a series of them, of this battle between the woman in the Power Ranger suit and the robot with the exaggerated muscles. The title, clearly, is UNION. The setting is a European city with gorgeously ornate buildings. During the year that Seth and April lived in Florence, they paid a visit to Prague, and I am wondering if the city here in this story doesn't owe some of its feel to that visit, a city which I have heard is often used in movies set in cosmopolitan Europe during World War 2: a beautiful city that evidently doesn't have too much of the plain, square "modern" style of architecture.
For a guy who at first avoided doing backgrounds, Seth certainly grew to do sumptuous ones.
