"Caravans of Gor" - a new low.

[bellatrys]

There was a lot of initial confusion over the format of Dark Horse's Gor release, because they're a comic book company and the Gor books are prose. So let's muddy the waters some more, with this parody in comic book form:

Caravans of Gor (1 MB pdf) Pairings: Kazrak/Tarl, Talena/Some Random Wagonmaster.

*worships you and your mighty art* That's excellent. Truly excellent. Thank you.

awshucks,

[bellatrys]

thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

That's interesting. Nice vignette.

it was partly sparked by the fact that I was at Target

[bellatrys]

the other day, and saw that they had a whole shelf of different kinds of lubes and stimulating oils, smack between the tampons and the condoms, none of which ever said what exactly they were *for*, only that they were "intimate" and "exciting" and "stimulating" and could be used *anywhere*, which made me wonder if it's either illegal or simply Not Done to describe clinically and accurately what they're for. And also the fact that by trying to label them in such a fashion as to not bring A Blush To The Cheek Of The Young Person, they only would make any hypothetical Young Person perusing them far more curious, and creatively imaginative, than a blunt "apply directly to the forehead genitals to prevent inconvenient and painful binding" labeling would.

Well, the reason that they're so presented is less to avoid a blush on the cheeks of young persons, I suspect, than on the cheeks of middle-aged men.

Several of the condom companies have come up with single use vibrating cockrings, on sale at your local drugstore right next to the condoms. They also have "massagers," (i.e. plain old vibrators) in 3 different shapes.

In honour of the occasion

I went looking for an image of what I imagine the well-dressed tharlarion rider might consider suitable garb.

Hey, if it's got studs/and or chains on, that means it's rough 'n' tough 'n' really manly!

...The scariest thing about that icon is that it is entirely appropriate in context. Ye gods.

Like we've been saying all along

[deiseach]

You turn the words into pictures, and oh boy.

It's like he has no visual imagination, so it never dawned on him exactly what his description of toned men wearing leather harnesses and thigh boots - and nothing else - would look like.

You dowse up a photo of his ideal man, though, and you start saying "Come on, John, who are you kidding?"

It's all there in canon!

God, yeah. We should set up a fund to pay someone, anyone, to take him to a gay leather club.

2011 question

[mme_hardy]

Your magnificent comic has vanished off the net, at least according to Google; would you mind putting it up again?
