ROW 2

PANEL 5

Margot and Brendan are standing in absolute darkness, looking around, bewildered. There's a pair of red, glowing eyes seen in the background.

 
 

MARGOT: Where are we? I demand to see who's in charge!

BRENDAN: [looking like it's starting to dawn on him] I'm dead…

MARGOT: LISTEN, YOU… I was out on a nice walk with my husband when we were turned to STONE and somehow wound up HERE! This is CRUEL AND UNJUST! You can't tell me that we were meant to DIE in some kind of FREAK… STONED… ACCIDENT! I demand that you send us back NOW! Or I'll...

ANUBIS: [only the top of his head and sad red eyes can be seen]
