Big Little Brother, page 9.

The winning suggestion did indeed get illustrated - you'll see the start of THAT story next Sunday!

A Love Story, page 4.

Yep, not a long or complex tale, but I kinda like it.

   Soooo, what comes next for main Sunday story? More Teeka? The Wolfboy trilogy? Last Ship Out? Come to think of it, have I posted samples of that story before?

   Or whatsisname, the young stallion that just can't keep his burgeoning dick out of any female that will stand still long enough? Guess I'll have to run some examples, get you good folks' votes.

 .....And now I think on it, I ...

Love in the Arena, page 10.

Whoops. There went Herman's most influential fan.

Scotman and Icelad, page 9.

As far as the outside world is concerned, you are what you do.

Scotman and Icelad, page 8.

What do they call it now-adays, "chaotic good"?

Scotman and Icelad, page 7.

Sometimes, it amazes me - not just how many powerful machines are at the modern man's beck and call, but how few seem to realize what they have at their fingertips.

Big Little Brother, page 8.

A boner poser! What should Mike do?

A Love Story, page 3.

Today was the last day of Midgard, the Icelandic comics and assorted nerdity convention. I was on the Artist's panel, and generally enjoyed myself. But after helping mine host dis-assemble his booth and then unload it from his van to his offices, I was a bit tired. Went to bed in a good mood....

.....And then a stray neuron asked - "Hey! Have you posted the Sunday stuff on Patreon, yet? Seems I haven't. So here you go, and sorry for the delay.

Love in the Arena, page 9.

Today's post has had to run a gauntlet to finally be posted. I'm in Iceland at the moment (story in my next massletter), where I have no scanner. But putting my crude social skills to use, I schmoozed my good host, Jean Posocco into scanning it for me.

   Even so, it was not quite perfect. So I labored to download Photoshop Elements onto my laptop, so's I could clean up the pic before posting. After 3 tries, I finally succeeded. Whereupon I discovered I had a trial versio...

Scotman and Icelad, page 6.

There is a serious side to S & I's shenanigans.

Scotman and Icelad, page 5.

Yes, that's a reference to the Waco massacre. Although to be fair, as usual the BATFE created the mess, and then called in the FBI to eliminate the evidence and/or witnesses.

Scotman and Icelad, page 4.

Yep, these stories grew out of idle talk as we cruised in an actual 

Oldsmobile. Those were the days....

Big Little Brother, page 7.

Can there be too much of a good thing?

A Love Story, page 2.

Bull O'Brannon takes the fight to the enemy.

Love in the Arena, page 8.

The Churn starts to settle....or does it?

Scotman and Icelad, page 3.

Ah what the heck, let's run the origin story. A tale from if not a better, at least a less uptight time.

Scotman and Icelad, page 2.

Hooo BOY,  is today gonna be busy! But that's what I get for being self-employed. The boss always knows when I've been shirking.

Scotman and Icelad, page 1.

I first penciled these pages back in 1997 - twenty-two years ago! Damn, Father Time keeps pulling these little mind-benders on me.

Big Little Brother, page 6.

Don't count on it!

A Love Story, page 1.

This month's Sunday color page will be a short and silly tale featuring that commodious kitten, Kelly!

Love in the Arena, page 7.

Unable to eradicate the lemons, the Church makes sour lemonade.

The Fugitive's Guide to the Pop-up Cities.

Second sample for a possible new story to run here: "The Fugitive's guide to the Pop-Up Cities", pop-up cities being places where Makers, bakers, brewers, steam/cyberpunks, anarchists, and and assorted other folk who cannot get used to the taste of corporate dick congregate.

   This story would be a vehicle for me to comment on current issues like extreme inequality, climate change and other things on my mind, via a near-future science-fiction type plot. I had already dra...

Sample 1: Himmelreich.

So here we go with samples of the assorted stories I might run next, here on Patreon. First up:

   The flood of souls from people slaughtered in World War Two was straining heaven's ability to process them. So St. Peter got practical, and recruited assistants from the ranks of arriving souls: Experts in the efficient herding of people. Yes, the Nazis.

    So when Gunnar,  the Last True Nazi, is finally slain, the lower bureaucracy of Heaven ...

No one lives forever! part 79.

For a gal who'd make a fairly ugly guy, Hündrat gets a lot of action. But Benny is a burly guy himself, and is old enough to know what he likes.

   So anyway, that wraps up "No-one Lives Forever!". I'll be running some samples of what the next story might be in the next few days. But if none of the samples float your boat, don't hesitate to tell me what you'd prefer to see!

Big Little Brother, page 5.

Where Maude gets worked in her behind.

Big Boys and Girls Card Game, page 16.

Aaaaaand that wraps it up. I'm thinking of running "Love Story", a short story featuring Kitten Kelly and Bull O'Brannon next. Unless I already have? I wish I was a better record-keeper, now that my memory is failing.

   But anyhoohah, it's never too early to tell me what YOU would most like to see next. Karno panders to his payin' clients without a shred of shame!

Love in the Arena, page 6.

Most bullies are craven cowards. They join the lynch mob to be able to abuse people, while protected from being held responsible for their crimes by the anonymity of the mob. Not to be picked off themselves - THAT'S no fun!

No one lives forever! part 78.

I don't think Max has noticed they're levitating, yet.

No one lives forever! part 77.

With talent like that, this boy will go far!

No one lives forever! part 76.

Poor Migtau - having your bouncing butts suddenly replaced by Max Solomon's scowling visage must've been a boner-killer. 

    Max did not actually discover any evidence against Bin Saluman - Sandoval was quite thorough. So he just barges ahead as if he had, and the cabal assumes the famously smart guy must be right.
