"I don’t see the point in getting lost in endless theories, details, and possibilities. That’s paralysis."

Made for Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Retold's Clay-centric escapade, "Neutron Stars in his Eyes".

"Kristoph’s too good at this. It’ll be too easy. A greenhorn like you, though? I think you’ll put on a good show."

Maybe it was fear... An omen...

Mr. Misham will return in Turnabout Corner's prologue soon! I just felt compelled to draw him after editing the investigation phase for a while.

“This might break his heart,” Apollo warned, hoping his implication was clear.

“Better that than a bullet piercing it.”

In making a retelling of Apollo Justice, one of my favorite changes (that I don't get to talk about much) was making Drew Misham the prologue device for each case. No prologue in that game beats Turnabout Trump's haunting animated sketch. Who is this man? How does he know what went on in that room? Why is he sketching it? Misham is a walking question mark of a character.

So I decided each case will open with him.

Writing his POV entirely in the passive voice while having him foreshadow the events of the cases has been a fun challenge. So fun that I'm not even fully done with writing Turnabout Corner, yet I have the Drew prologue for Serenade done and the one for Succession in the works.
