You can explain the second and third panels as Castela moving from far right to far left, or the first and third as Scarlet moving in the other direction, but you can’t explain each girl occupying each position with less than two moves. And POV change requires the three girls to do simultaneous about-faces, and since no panel is a mirror-reversal of another, it still requires two changes of position. That’s getting weird.
If you plot their positions from overhead, each of the girls remains in the same place with only minor changes of stance while the “camera” rotates around the outside of the group in a counter-clockwise motion. It seems pretty easy to follow from that perspective and I don’t see any awkwardness in the layout, but then I’m accustomed to visualizing blueprints and other flat designs in 3 dimensions.
Too right Forrest: in the first panel, Scar is on Stela’s right, who is on Day’s right, who is on Scar’s right, now look at the last panel, camera POV has changed, but they are still on the correct girls’ right
Please, Pablo, don’t do this turntable-trick ever again. I think it broke several comic rules and also my brain.
Yay for ghost stories, though (as long as it won’t introduce a new girl to the team…)
Who ya gonna call?
Ghost Blasters!
Looks like Scarlett is the brains here.
So we need to train her to say jenkees then?
Daylla is *so* adorable… Sorry, gotta call it out…

It isn’t trespassing if you get the owner’s/occupant’s permission…
Was just going to say that
The girls are moving around a lot from panel to panel. Confused me for a while.
Castela moved a little. Other than that it was the POV that changed.
Yeah, it was the camera that moved, not the goils

Most cartoonists avoid doing that. Paul took his own path…

I think Paul’s use of alternating perspective was brilliant! Kind of like what they did in the basement scenes of “That ‘70s Show.
Perhaps they can investigate the ghosts at the paranormal mall.
Por que no los dos?
Forgive us our trespasses…. 🥴
