We’ve all come to know and despise The Duke over time, so in this strip, I wanted to put you in Pastor’s point-of-view when he gets his hands on the pimp.
Yesterday was the six-month anniversary of WORLD OF HURT! The only one not celebrating was The Duke. WORLDOFHURTONLINE.COM went live the on April 6th, and I started a seven-day “Countdown To A Beatdown” to launch the first strip.
I’d like to thank everyone for their support over these past six months, especially my fiancee, Noelle. I couldn’t have done this without her. The readership has grown steadily over time, and I’ve learned a lot, too. Thanks for sticking by me and making this so much fun for me.

Jay I think this is one of your best looking strips. I like that Pastor draws the drapes. What horrific thing is he going to do that would require him to close the curtains?
Congratulations on reaching the first 6 month mile stone. You have taken us on quite a ride, and we are all hoping it continues for a long, long while.
It just got even harder out there for a pimp.
Congrats on six great months, Jay. Upward and onward — The Man can’t stop your ink!
Revenge can be oh, so sweet.
This must really be your baby if you’re measuring it in months old.
Keep up the awesome work! I look forward to the next 6 months!
Congrats on 6 months Jay!
Love the last panel. Duke looks like he’s just a wad of flesh.
I was thinking Pastor is going to launch Duke out the window–that he was *opening* the drapes…
Thanks for the love, y’all.
Somehow, as Duke’s greed and depravity was revealed, he devolved as the strips progressed until he became “a wad of flesh.”
As far as the differing interpretations of what Pastor is doing with the drapes, all I’ll say is that Alan Moore established a strong precedent for the defenestration of beaten-up middle-aged men in bathrobes, but nothing’s off the table.
