But... but they've both only got one eye, so why isn't Mercy getting Vincent to drive? I'm not saying that cyclops drivers are inherently more dangerous than regular bi-optical drivers, except that they measurably have less peripheral and focal vision spread so they're inherently more dangerous than regular bi-optical drivers. This one even seems to turn to look at the passenger instead of keeping his single eye on the road, dangit.
Also, sleeping for a week is called a coma, don't do that Mercy. Sometimes people don't wake up from those.

Ghoul ACTUALLY has two eyes. His hairstyle tends to obscure one eye to us, the viewers. See this page for a rare front-facing by our boy here.
Ghoul is being very careful driving, because he wants another chance (since Mercy hardly ever lets anyone drive her).
And let me get this straight: you would have been fine with goons or cultists stopping Mercy's life processes, but letting her slip into a coma (one of a number of tricks I could steal from soap operas) is off limits? Where are the bounds, man?

Nope, if it's hidden behind hair the other eye doesn't exist. That hippy needs a haircut! *shakes walker*
If you're really going to start borrowing clichés from soap operas I'm requesting you make Ghoul pregnant without being sure if the father is Emily, Luna or Mercy.

Okay, so does Ghoul have to be physically present (as in "tagging along") or can Mercy do a refill to capacity of her own reserves from his, and leave him somewhere safe?
I like the way you're depicting ambient exterior light on the pair--It gives a nighttime feel to the panels. :)

I'm a big fan of prybars because they're useful for breaking walls and doors, but they're a little conspicuous to carry outside of your car trunk or a collection of tools. At that point you might as well consider a firearm of some kind if you don't need to break down, into, or out of anything.
If this is really a two-fisted pulp action serial though, I say Ghoul should consider a classic Sten gun. On second thought, maybe a classic Sten gun upgraded to solve that minor pesky issue with accidental fire. Never underestimate the value of being able to fold the stock and pull out the clip to hide a full-size SMG in your jacket, or the versatility and improvement in the TCO of looting your 9x19mm ammo directly off of any cops, crooks, and Nazi zombies that you face.

"Hello, this is the answering machine of Mercy Black. If you hear this, it is likely that I didn't wake up from the ringing of my phone. Yeah, even when you are calling in the middle of the day. Why? Either you know already, or it is none of your business. Please call me again next week (NOT in a few hours or something, you won't have any luck then either), or leave a message after the beep."

That last panel is probably hyperbole...
...probably.
