What, you think you're gonna mess with our comic shop? Think again.
This is pretty much practice at drawing different poses from different angles. The comic shop made a decent backdrop, so here we are with girly Super Elliot and Justin again. We can only assume there's some foe at their feet who they're looking down on. Or... I dunno. Some sort of trash someone rudely left there? They're looking at SOMETHING, darn it!
To be honest, Justin's pose here is the sort of I hate most when there isn't adequate context. Characters standing around looking tough when they have no reason to look tough often comes off as fake and like they're just posing to me, because, well... they ARE.
Why are your arms crossed, dude? Because you're trying desperately to look tough? Yeah, that suggests insecurity more than anything else. I'd be more intimidated by a look of complete and total apathy than someone trying to scare the photographer.
Since I don't want Justin to come off like that, let's say they're looking down at a squadron of ninjas by the river who were thinking of starting something, but now they're all like "it's Justin and a floating girl in a short skirt! RUN AWAY!"
