THE THRILL-SEEKERS 44 – “Time To Talk”

THE THRILL-SEEKERS 44 – “Time To Talk”

Thanks for your patience.  I apologize for the late update.

With this episode, Pastor finally gets his mitts on Ned and I get to deliver the “punchline” from what I set-up way back in Episode 32.  Next, we see the final fate for Ned Belmont, and as you can probably guess, it doesn’t look too good for him.

On a side note, we are in the process of having t-shirts made with the revised Black Power fist on the front and the “new look” WORLD OF HURT logo on the back.  The designs are with a local Columbia printer, and I will be closing the CafePress store soon.  I drop me a line in the Comment section if you’re interested, so I can get a rough headcount on how many shirts I should order.  It won’t commit you to anything, but it should provide a fairly good gauge.

Again, thank you so much for your patience, and I’ll see you Friday with an all new blog post.

    OW! In panel two, does she punch his face or dig into the eye?

  3. A'Omare says:

    HA! don’t be callin’ Jesus now! LOL. now if only i could grab a couple of people like that now that i’m dealing with, and have a “come to jesus” talk with them. i like that anger in her face in that middle panel. great job man.

  4. A'Omare says:

    oh yeah and i want two shirt: both 3XL or 4XL.

    DadaHyena-
    First, that’s a great name! Secondly, it’s more of an awkward, slapping punch to Ned’s already busted eye. I thought about Caroline gouging his eye, but I had several reasons not to go that far, which will kind of play out in the strip after the next one.

  7. Angry White Man says:

    Interested. L if it’s normal, XL if it’s one of those hipster-style tight shirts.

  8. colin says:

    .think you can work one of John Mayer’s lines into one of the next strips?

    j/k

    Man, if you make a WOH with the logo on the front/ fist between the shoulder blades on the back, I’m in.

    Ooooh! Get ‘em Pastor!
    LOL gotta love the “oh god” squeal. You see? You see what you get for messing with the warriors…I mean THE warrior.

    Jay, I’m pretty sure Pastor would know just how to shut John Mayer’s big mouth. By the way, what size shoe does Pastor wear? Inquiring minds want to know… please don’t say size 7. And since I’m introducing Andre Santana (who’s ’bout the only black hispanic werewolf anywhere) into both my webcomics this week, he’ll have a few choice things to say about ol’ Mayernaise….

  10. Jay Potts says:

    Jessica-
    On Twitter, I joked that Mayer owned up to his foot-in-mouth syndrome, because he wanted to innoculate himself against a foot-to-ass epidemic. (”Foot-to-ass” is a trademark of David Walker at http://www.BadAssMofo.com.) I’d say Pastor’s a size 10 1/2 in alligator dress shoes or 10 in something less formal.
    I look forward to the Mayer-related updates.

  11. Guess Who says:

    Pastor is not a size 10. He’s a 12 at least. Maybe 13.

  12. Jay Potts says:

    Guess Who-
    I was taking into account that, on average, people are getting progressively larger. A size 10 or 11 in 1972 would have been a huge foot. For example, if Jim Brown in his prime showed up in the Browns training camp today, they might not even let him on the field until he put on 15 or 20 pounds. See, I’m always thinking about the details. ;)

  14. Baltimoron says:

  15. Jay Potts says:

    Seoul-
    (Must resist “Seoul Man” joke…Must resist “Seoul Man” joke…Must resist…)

    BABBIE-
    Thanks, Mom! See, all those vegetables you ate when you were carrying me paid off. :)

    I love you and Dad, and really appreciate all your support. Even when you didn’t quite understand where I was coming from all the time, you were still there for me.

    Thank you.
