I promised to bring the pain this week, and hopefully I delivered. The “Sunday-strip” format I used back in Episode 15 was pretty popular, so I thought I would return to it this week. Strangely enough, in a weekly adventure strip, action sequences seem to slow down the forward momentum of the plot, so the Sunday-strip format also helped dispense with the violence at a more rapid pace. You may also notice that I added a recap caption box in the first panel for the benefit of newer readers and to refresh the memory of longtime followers of WORLD OF HURT.
On a sidenote, I’ll be in Chicago for the rest of this week, so I won’t be on hand to moderate, or respond, to comments. However, please feel free to drop me a line or two, and I’ll have something to look forward to when I return.
Have a good week, everyone.

WHOA! The price to pay for the final trade will be SO worth it! This gives a whole new meaning to the term ‘The stairs or the window?’
Now I can get back to my pages with a little inspiration;)
A “Krak!” and a “Punt!”? Sweet. Duke should know it’s never a good idea to throw down wearing bedroom slippers.
Yep, Pastor pulled a “Shaft” on the Duke and kicked his ass without the gun. He should have known better and ran.
