The Great Sunday Night Unraveling! (Cover)

Here we are! Finally, the exciting continuation of our “Anywhere” storyline begins! Almost. For now, it’s “only” the cover of our latest venture. But can you feel the excitement??

In fact, this is the third part of a trilogy that began with “Adventures of the Human Tree”!

We can’t wait to share the newest hijinks with you!

Which clues and characters can you spot, faithful mortals??

To avoid false advertising, for all of you fans of Jenny Everywhere and Anywhere, we do have to admit that in this sequel, the baton of main protagonist is passed on to a few other of our denizens of the BEHOLDERverse– as we often like to do! But fear not, both of our spunky teleporting Open-Source stars will be appearing, and on the very last page, The Shifter herself will have to face a fateful reunion!

Return to the Mighty Bares cover

There wasn’t a cover for our recent story at the Mighty Bares textile-free camp site, yet inspiration struck belatedly, and even though it doesn’t include all the characters, and it’s coming late, it’s better than nothing!

What’s this about ?? Just read our previous story and you’ll find out!

Tales To Behold Tentacle poster

To celebrate the finish of our current story, and get you excited for the next showing, here’s a un-related little something for your thirsty eye sockets. Merv the Griffin, Emerald Valkyrie and the one and only Captain Evening, of The Odds, fighting some tentacles with staring eyes. Ka-Pow!

Return to the Mighty Bares P 07

Disguised as tree and bush, the burglars were no March for climate change summer heat! And they gladly explained their agenda, in exchange for ample water and a spot in the shade. Who can blame them, not knowing the police had found their loot– they had been “in the slammer” for years!

We sincerely hope you enjoyed this little detour in our Tales, freshly from the desk of our human chronicler of the adventures of these heroes we Behold! (For better image quality, please click on the pic).

NEXT: We return to our longer ongoing saga, continuing where we left off with Jennys, dimensional catastrophes and robots with pegs in their heads!

Return to the Mighty Bares P06

Our heroes didn’t expect the chutzpah of the regular residents! So it’s back to square one.. again!

But, as we all know, sometimes the best solution to a problem is doing nothing, and waiting, relaxing naked in the shade! Our magical cat-girl reacts instantly, as she notices these guys…

Return to the Mighty Bares P 05

We’re laying a trap for the burglars, and we’re laying in waiting, so there’s occasional for some hanky panky. Lady Venus, mother of jungle hero Kaza, is enjoying the fact that she’s the only lady in the Captain’s tent for the duration of the vacation.

Regarding our visual problems, we’re trying a different approach, just click on the main image for a better visual experience.

 

Return to the Mighty Bares P 04

The night has begun, the heat goes on, our two heroic heroes are trying to shed some light on dark circumstances! Meanwhile, Burst Lion changes back into her human form, for climatic reasons… Lady Venus by Jay Epps. Burst Lion by burstlion.

Return to the Mighty Bares P 03

 

And because our different format for this exciting new story is showing up somewhat rough, here is a thumbnail of a bigger version of this page, for your reading pleasure. Just click on it and enjoy!

Return to the Mighty Bares P 02

Captain Evening and his friends have set up camp, so to say, at the Mighty Bares clothing-optional site, and are enjoying their first night under the stars.
A little extra note: the pages are differently proportioned as a nod to the original inspiration, the “Bare Pit” / “Louie & Zoot“ comic strips by Grace Crowley, and more recently, Greyfriar’s Isle and other online comics by Reinder Dijkhuis.

Doubt of the Dreadful 12: Zombie Vacation

And since we answered the last remaining question from this formative and formidable tale, we’re saying Goodbye for today, while we’re preparing the next mind boggling story! Expulsior !

 

Doubt of the Dreadful 11: The Beginning

As Merv the Griffin continues (together with Jesse Brain) to reminisce about his arrival on our plane of existence, we’re reminded how Jenny Everywhere saved the day in her very own, multiversal way. The rest is history!

But we’re not quite finished… stay tuned!

 

Doubt of the Dreadful 10: First Encounter

We’re recounting what led to this very fateful encounter– for the first time! Again!

Merv the Griffin, summoned by Dr Brain, is on a mission to destroy Captain Evening, but he doesn’t know what a “Captain Evening” is! Fate had it, he smashed into the home of the very person he’s looking for. The Captain is too honest not to admit that he’s his target.

At that time, the intrepid Jenny Everywhere was around, too!

The last panel is slightly reworked from the original story in Tales #2, the rest is all-new!

Doubt of the Dreadful 09: The Doubt and the Dread

Merv’s quest becomes an odyssey. The best professional cannot deliver appropriate results without sufficient information! Alone in a world he never made, stuck with a task he seemingly can’t fulfill… our Demon of Vengeance is in a pickle!

Doubt of the Dreadful 08: The Mission

Merv and Jesse continue to reminisce, sharing some of their feelings, doubts, … And we see the momentous moment that Dr Brain gave Merv his fateful mission!

 

Doubt of the Dreadful 07: There He Was

There He Is, for the first time Again!, our favorite Griffin. Finally we get to show his terrifying first appearance, years later!

 

Doubt of the Dreadful 06: Bridge between Worlds

Now these scenes, contrary to the last page, have *never before* seen the light of day! Jesse Brain, her father and the henchmen chanting away, not sure if anything would even happen, until… 

Doubt of the Dreadful 05: The Well of Realms

The champion steps into the Well of Realms… which is not a refreshing spring! It’s a stream of energy that transports our volunteer beyond worlds beyond worlds…to where he is needed… where he is summoned.

Sounds strange? But this is how it is written.

 

Doubt of the Dreadful 04: The World Below

Face it, faithful one, the first time we see Merv the Griffin’s home realm! Did you picture it this way??

In this flash back, we flesh out some of the details of the original story… it’s a flesh back! But not what you think, dirty one!

Doubt of the Dreadful P03: Rewind!

We’re rewinding all the way back to Tales To Behold 2! We’re happy to present you the original art from way back when – in all-new context, with all-new captions!
(To see the original story, check out Tales To Behold (TTB) 2 )

Doubt of the Dreadful P02: Letting It All Hang Out

We spend our time often following the adventures of Captain Evening and The Odds, but today we’re staying home with Jesse and Merv, and have already learned an interesting tidbit! We might hear some more, listening in on their breakfast conversation.
We’ve seen notorious Alicia in older comics, when she was still just a fellow student and best frenemy of Jesse. She has risen through the ranks significantly over the years, while pushing out Jesse and taking over her spot in Dr Brain’s gang of villains.
