Talk:Dishonored: The Peeress and the Price/@comment-1500935-20171103145412

So I read the second issue and quite frankly... meh. I do understand that the writers wanted to develop the idea of Emily taking public matters in her own hands without her father. However, it could have been developed in a longer story. It introduced both Archibald and Luella as potentially interesting characters with opposed views on the Empire, but can't spend too much pages detailing them. They are other explanations that seem to have been set away in order to fit the two issues format, despite some interesting ideas behind showing the changes in Dunwall after Dishonored 2.

I also noticed a few world inconsistencies, if they can be called that. First, the artist took inspiration of Karnaca's style of buildings to draw on some panels. I can pretend it was a choice to show districts that do not share that Victorian Edinburgh architecture we've seen countless time in Dunwall, but... meh.

Secondly, there are Grand Guard in Dunwall, both regular guards and officers, the former wearing white instead of blue like in the original concept arts. Here again I can think of some convoluted explanation. The Duke lent some of his soldiers to help rebuild and keep the peace in Dunwall after the chaos Delilah wrought. The regular guards in Dunwall wear white to distinguish themselves from the City Watch, which are also present in the comics. Captain Laurence (introduced in the first issue) who is often discussing with Emily could be a liaison with the Grand Guard in Dunwall, since she wears a white Elite Guard uniform. If that's not an explanation that was not developed in the comic, I think the artist just took inspiration from early materials and didn't check if it was consistent with Dunwall.
