The command began at a mouse cable and climbed into the sky.

Development Room 404 Ep. 10: The Master — 2x2 four-panel webtoon. 1. Kkobugi sweats heavily and looks flustered while coding at a computer. Kim Saseum stands behind him with folded arms. Under the desk, the USB plug of the wired mouse is visibly disconnected from the computer. 2. The camera pulls back. Behind Kim Saseum, Manager Park Mulbeom watches them with folded arms and a mildly angry expression. A round bump on his head suggests he has just been hit. 3. The camera pulls back farther. Behind Park Mulbeom, a gigantic anthropomorphic company building holds a wooden club and stares down at him. With its other arm, the company holds Mulbeom's small family group hostage. 4. The camera reaches its widest view. A huge, frightening storm-cloud AI controls the company building with puppet strings. Many similar company buildings surround it, each suspended from strings controlled by the same AI.
