Well, not that I did much anyway...<BR/><BR/>Love this story--"I am Nurse Jane Bryant, and I am ROCKIN' the forehead curls!" When the "madman" attacked, I was thinking, "Holy shit! He's got Bluto locked in the dungeon!" I kid--the art was great, and I really loved the doctor's grotesque face. But is it wrong that my favorite panel is the one on pg. 4 with one of the patients screwing with the other one: "I've got to stop them burning Rome!" "Too late, I already burned it! HAW-HAW!" That kills me, for some reason.<BR/><BR/>And for some reason I find Jane--I mean, "myself"--much hotter with 4 arms than with 2. Maybe it's that Hindu goddess fetish of mine...<BR/><BR/>I've said too much.The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-16983087514791263812008-05-01T04:40:00.000-05:002008-05-01T04:40:00.000-05:00At first, I misread "Daring Bare-back" as "During ...At first, I misread "Daring Bare-back" as "During Bare-back" and wondered how this even saw the light of day way back when.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13836904680434822238noreply@blogger.com
