Ever since WORLD OF HURT claimed the title of “The Internet’s #1 Blaxploitation Webcomic!,” cats have been comin’ out the woodwork to steal back the spot. 

Last week I warned you about Maurice Fontenot running Ghost Pimp over on the Act-I-Vate stroll. (WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT CLICKING LINKS?)  Now this dude John Aston is also rising up out of South Carolina with an homage to the Pam Grier oevre called Rachel Rage.  The site’s been active since last year, so it has a pretty deep archive.  (SO HELP ME, IF YOU CLICK THAT LINK…).  I’ve had discussions with both these guys, and we’ve decided to handle this like gentlemen…for now.  However, if any one of y’all even consider going to those sites, leaving comments, or THINK about going here or here (DON’T ! I AIN’T PLAYIN’!) to buy their merchandise, this could explode into some vile gangsta shit, real quick!

Continuing in the spirit of detente, that merely hides our simmering, mutual hatred for one another, I feel obligated to let everyone know the John Aston of OldeTowneComix, has updated his webcomic with a new chapter in the life of Blaxploitation heroine, Rachel Rage.  The latest installment is called “Last Call.” The previous installment “Birthday Girl” was in May, but as always, it’s well worth the wait.  “Last Call” is forty-four (44) screens of boozy, sweaty exploitation sleaze (in the best way possible!), with the promise of more mayhem to follow. 

By the way, one day I’ve got to get around to writing my review of Rachel Rage: Vol. I, which you can find at the online store John has ingeniously dubbed “The Olde Towne Chamber of Commerce.”   Clever bastard.
