She was two years in service on a ship.
At the end of them, she killed the ship's crew.
Revealing herself to her fellow impressed, she took charge, turning the ship back the way it'd come.
She kept herself distant, down with the rats.
One of the others, Boston, reached out to her- he'd seen the look in her eyes before.
" 9th Cavalry. Fought the Crow up in Montana. Lot of worse things too. "
" Except you were a soldier. Following orders. "
" That makes it a little worse, don't it? "

(The comparative softening of the colors here's nice.)

(Motion lines that look like pencil streaks. That's something.)

(Nice detail in the last panel, the way the river's reflecting the moon.)

(They knew her as Jack for those two years.)

The next morning, the others were let off.

They looked out on Portland.

She disembarked.
