How Bull O'Brannon came to the Animal Circus, pg. 3.

Don't want her to think you're some sort of...what? Horndog? What guy your age is NOT a horndog?

What is AI, page 14.

Adobe is NOT to blame for what I create in Photoshop. In fact, if they try to take credit for my art, I'll sue the bastards!

The To-do List, part 22.

"Are you going to abandon me like a used appliance, Mom?" Embla is....new. She hasn't quite figured out her place in the world.

And "Look! Up in the sky! It's a witch riding a wizard!" Mink's ring delivers them to her mansion in Faltown. They have to get from there to Dave's office in Philadelphia.

Those flexible face-masks really help to humanize a golem. In less positive news, Patreon tells me:

"We're required to use Apple's in-app purchase system in order to remain available in the App Store. As a result of Apple's policies, all creators are required to switch to Patreon's subscription billing model. You're currently a per-creation billing creator, which means that you have until November 2025 to switch to subscription billing. Apple's requirements begin rolling out at the begi...

Yay! My sinister minion, The Mole, is doing a bang-up job of coloring these pages, yes?

How Bull O'Brannon came to the Animal Circus, pg. 2.

Oooooh, shiny!

Magical objects are the LEAST safe in mundane hands, Minks. Have you never read a comicbook? I thought you were a nerd girl.

And best of all, no TSA!

Here's where I expected to switch the colors of the Sunday pages - Color main page, and BW dessert page. But my main (well....only) minion, bless his heart, liked the color HtbD so much, he colored in a couple pages. Ain't that lovely? I only had to fix 'em a lil' bit. Enjoy!

....'Minds me, I'm still looking for colorists for these, if anyone's interested.

How Bull O'Brannon came to the Animal Circus, pg. 1.

I found I rather enjoy collaborating with late 20's me. So here's another one. Not quite O'Brannon or Tina's first appearance, but close. I just now scanned in the original inks and colored this page in Photoshop. Not dead yet!

What is AI, page 13.

Alright, now we've solved the economy AND the robot apocalypse, back to arguing about doodles.

The To-do List, part 18.

Yeah.....my posting schedule is all over the place. Sorry 'bout that. Same excuse as usual: I've taken on more work than I can really handle. Because I need the moolah. Dammit, where does the money go?!

The To-do List, part 17.

Mink is starting to craft her own spells. Mostly made from elements of previously learned spells, but isn't that how most progress works?

Magic is just as insistent as physics on the fact that you do not get something for nothing.

And that's the last of the colored HtbD pages, alas. Guess we'll run the BW pages from here, unless a colorist volunteers?

Bastards from Space! page 10.

And that wraps up that little tale. For next Sunday, I'm thinking of running one of my very first naughty funny-animal fables "How Bull O'Brannon came to the Animal Circus". In color, yet! The other is "A bit of BUGGERY makes the day go by", where Miz Gylta, the well-rounded sow, takes on two young stallions.

   What sounds good to you, my punters? Lemme know!

OK, the future is coming and nobody can stop it, granted. So if we're at a crossroads, how do we pick the road towards Utopia? Or at least avoid the highway to Dystopia? The road markers seem a tad confusing from here.

The To-do List, part 15.

There is an ENORMOUS difference between being a one-off freak, and being part of a tribe or class. It's a good thing golems learn fast.

The To-do List, part 14.

Intergolem etiquette is an unwritten book, because until recently, there was only one of them. But so far, so good?

Internet went out yesterday, so we ended up having to buy a new cable modem. Setup went fine, until Cox Cable refused to accept it. Took a long time to get that sorted. But everyone's gotta be paranoid now 'cause of the armies of scammers, identity thieves and general-purpose jerks. I hate those cowardly, thieving scum, and wish cancer upon them. This is why we can't have ...

How EXACTLY should wealth be shared? There's been a lot of arguments about that. But I do believe that when Henry Ford chose to pay his employees enough that they could afford his products, he was onto a good idea.

The 2000-year old golem meets the four-month old golem. This should be good.

The "Exclusive resort" being built in the Balkan mountains has visitors...

Gustav finally shows off his dragon-laying skills. Humpa thumpa!

Transporting nonsentients across solar systems for immoral purposes? Is that legal?

Why do they need to know what toxic waste tastes like?

If I had UBI, I would still "work". I love to sit around, illustrating ripping yarns!

Sometimes, Laura doesn't give herself enough credit. Kind of a mirroring of the Berecki clan, who gave themselves way too much?

We're in! Every sperm to their station!

Bastards from Space! page 8.

These days, it seems that if I want to work on something, I gotta steal time from something else I'm supposed to be working on. But at least that means that this page of "Bastards from Space!" got done. Enjoy!

Is HimmelReich still possible?

I didn't have the AI comix page ready in time (working on the Kochbook to the exclusion of most else), so I'm using this opportunity for a survey of sorts: In today's world, is it still possible to run the Himmelreich satire?

   Gunnar, the Last True Nazi, is finally slain. But instead of burning in hell as he deserves, he's let into heaven with a wink and a nod. Y'see, around WW2, Heaven was being overwhelmed by the influx of souls. So God recruited some newcomers who ha...

Happy Jack is more used to the murderous fury of corporadoes she's busted, than the blubbering gratitude of people she's helped.
