Battle of the Bulge, page 5.

When tidying up some of my piles, I mean files, I ran across something interesting: A photocopied "The Battle of the Bulge" book, already translated to English! The hard way - I'd laboriously pasted pieces of paper over the word balloons, and written the translation by hand.

   How about it, would you prefer these ov...

The Mink in Gratitude, page 7.

I only let people I know, like and trust into my pants. The criteria for entry into my mind, my very last bastion of identity, would be even stricter.

The Mink in Gratitude, page 6.

I won't say moral purity is impossible. But if they live long enough, even the most upstanding people might find themselves compromising a principle or two.

The Mink in Gratitude, page 5.

Huh. Max without his machines is just a stocky guy in shorts. How about that...

TEEKA, page 12.

Teeka is brave, but there are limits. Aren't there?

Program Switch, page 43.

Ladies, if you ever find yourself in this situation, a friendly blowjob will dispel any doubts about whether it's him or his monster dick you have problems with.

Battle of the Bulge, page 4.

Yeah, the start is exposition-heavy. But fear not, the fights and cheap gags are coming. And hey, here's Roy's bought-used-on-instalments spaceship (and flown by a robot he won in a card game) blastin' into the sky!

The Mink in Gratitude, page 4.

Hmmmm. I missed an opportunity for cameos in the mob that's chasing the Mink. Now I'm making new pages, I can do such off-the-cuff stuff. If you have an avatar, lemme know if you're interested in having 'em appear in the background of Mink comics.

The Mink in Gratitude, page 3.

Conversation between the highly intelligent tends to be fast-moving: They can skip over bits that are obvious to their keen, quicksilver minds. If anything, this exchange between Mink and Max has been "slowed down"  to aid the audience's comprehension.

The Mink in Gratitude, page 2.

The Mink is not normally a killer. In her defense, she had just been hit from behind with a baseball bat, and was severely concussed. Her primal survival instinct was in charge when she let that lightning bolt fly.

TEEKA, page 11.

Yes, yes, I'm an old perv, putting my long-suffering characters through all sorts of size games. But judging by the sales figures of these breast expansion/cock growth stories, I am far from the only one.

Program Switch, page 42.

Hmmmmm....it seems that this "sex" invention still has some kinks that need to be ironed out.

Battle of the Bulge, page 3.

We don't have some mildly portly Sidney Greenstreet character as our fat man. In space, you can get REALLY fat!

The Mink in Gratitude, page 1.

We're finally there: New, never-before-seen Mink pages. That's another thing I like about Patreon: Not just the money, although that's an enormous help. But also that it forces me to produce, to finish stories that had been languishing for years.

   My body of work grows and gets better. I love that!

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 10.

"Statistical probability curve" is the only way Max can say "God". To say he is not a practicing Jew would be an understatement.

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 9.

Oh ho ho, indeed.

TEEKA, page 10.

And just to appease the eye-searingly ugly (in body and spirit), mean-spirited,  glaring, staring-just-past-your-shoulder, teeth-gnashing, froth-spitting, sadistically demented censor types - yes, all characters in this story are over 18, or whatever the age of consent is in your jurisdiction. If you don't believe me, I can...

Program Switch, page 41.

The "time do fly" thing at top is a reference to the fact I penciled this page decades ago, when the "Program Switch" story idea was first jelling. And now, in 2016, it finally gets inked as part of the established story.

    Time is not linear for the children of my mind. It twists and turns, a strange, slinky beast...

Battle of the Bulge, page 2.

Yes, I inked this with a Sharpie. It was the 80's and I was a flat-broke teenager.

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 8.

I'm back from vacation. I voluntarily left sunny-yet-cool Iceland, and the VIP treatment my generous family was handing out to me...... in order to return to the killer heat of Tucson. Literally - this summer's heat has killed several hikers around Phoenix and Tucson. I must be insane. It's madness, I tell you!

   Ah...

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 7.

Max is not an exploiter, per se: He just wants to know everything. Even so, facing him while concussed was probably not the best decision.

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 6.

There have been mystery men, masked vigilantes and villains, in the Mink's world for some time. But now actual super-powered characters are starting to appear. This development is not popular among the mere mortals tasked with dealing with them.

TEEKA, page 9.

And as ever, the Sunday strip is followed by free dessert. And I think it's pretty obvious why Dogorn is doing this, the horny ole perv.

Program Switch, page 40.

Thanks to a friend with a scanner, I managed to make this while traveling. And yes, even simplified realities can be tricky to deal with, if you don't know exactly how they work. "Reality, what a concept!"

Battle of the Bulge, page 1.

OK, I'm vacationing in Iceland at the moment. Whilst there, I found the original art for my first fully realized and inked graphic novel, "The Battle of the Bulge". It's done just for fun, in a burst of teenage enthusiasm. Full of the things I liked - robots, imperfect heroes overcoming ridiculous odds, crusty spaceships, scener...

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 5.

It's Captain Rumbolt of the Faltown Metro Police, again. And it seems he's got a witness?  One of these days, I'll run his solo adventure here...

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 4.

OK, I'm a bit jetlagged. I haven't slept properly since Saturday night.....but I think it's very early Wednesday morning, so I'm uploading while I got a net connection.

   As for the above....I don't think this will end well.

The Mink in Strange Favors, page 3.

Being a tech genius does not necessarily translate to emotional smarts. But Max can learn scary fast.

TEEKA, page 8.

Another page demonstrating Teeka's commitment to her warren. Her courage, her................OK, it's gonzo porn.

Program Switch, page 39.

I dunno what to say here, really. I think what's happening here is clear and needs no explanation. Graphic, that's the word.
