    Thank God Anne’s first calls weren’t heard by anyone. I just hope Fold protocol doesn’t kill her because she’s inside the place that’s about to be folded. (And it seems we are about to learn how M.A.N.T.I.S. managed to leave practically no trace of their presence for the Guard or anyone to follow… Not to mention build a huge facility underground without it being visible from the outside — look at places where they burrow for underground railway tunnels to see what I mean.)

    Now, who is that speaking? Kenny, as the “you trained me” implies? Amy, since she’s the one who’s gone down here? One of the goons who were with her that other time (when Thomas died)? I’d say Amy. Though if that’s her, the work she’s reporting on has been done earlier (or by others who have been transferred earlier).

    Oh, and I hardly see Amy’s clothes anywhere, so they’re probably in a space obscured from the reader’s view but visible to Anne. Still, there’s a quite visible M.A.N.T.I.S. uniform, complete with helmet (possibly boots on the ground-level shelf) in panel 1. Will Amy have to wear it to escape Fold protocol?

    Oh, and in the third panel, the off-screen speaker’s second speech bubble starts with “Noone”. Wiktionary says it’s nonstandard for “no one” or “no-one”, but it’s all right if you want to do nonstandard.

    That being said, “impliment” in the same panel and the same speaker’s third speech bubble doesn’t appear to be an English word. Did you mean “implement”? It looks likely.

    (As of now I’ll no longer be saying that you can ignore or delete these remarks at will because you seem to appreciate them, but it will still be true. You are welcome to ignore or delete any spelling/syntax/grammar post from me at any time in the past or future, even if I don’t add it any more. Deal?)
