First panel first page. What is going on with her legs?
Follow 'her' left leg down and there is another shoe behind it.
Follow the crease in the dress down for 'her' right leg and there is no leg at the end of the dress.
But there is a stump of a leg next to where your eyes expect the leg to be. Very odd.

Interesting catch. I see what's going on. The woman's right leg is bent so we see her right foot behind her. But Elkin draws her skirt billowing out in a straight line from her right thigh, giving the impression that the right leg is extended, not bent, and it's holding up the skirt. The "stump" is actually the corner of the couch, but unfortunately it's right in line with the fold on the skirt so it looks like part of the extended leg. It would have worked better had Elkin drawn the skirt draping downward from the right knee rather than billowing out. For what it's worth, the couch is out of perspective, too, but that's probably nit-picking.
