BTW - do you remember this panel from Slavic Nihilism #1?
It's nothing serious and I do not imply any sort of "Slav Nihilism Universe" or "continuity" (because this geek shit is poison), but I love having these tiny anchors in my stories. I think of "Old Man Gorcha" (whose name I borrowed from "The Family of the Vourdalak " by Alexey Tolstoy) and "One-Eyed Hare" as equal little bricks which I use in these comics.
(Also heads up for the first wave of my $20 patrons - your commissions are coming pretty soon! ;) )
