0145 — Connie's Captioning Smut Again (Patreon)

We all think of Cornelius Bear as the factory spec of an accomplished and erudite gentleman. He's a publican who knows what Catullus did, a widower who once hand-rolled pasta shapes long lost to time, and a hopeless romantic who would stow away to Russia on the strength of one televised Olympic volleyball match. But, then, why does he supplement his income with tawdry smut-captioning, the pounding-out of formulaic paperbacks, and the like? Perhaps receipts are down at the Dude & Catastrophe; perhaps the busywork is an evening prophylactic against all the many sheaves of memory up in the rick.

Be it not forgotten that at noon in tiers 2 & 3 today a "making-of-this-strip" strip will post. Other upper-tier posts this week include two pages of my hand-drawn BonAire and Balanesçu Comix; a new interview of Cornelius by Beef; photo tour of my personally-executed rain garden, including photos of me in a "band" in high school; a character study fiction writing exercise. There are over 350 original posts waiting for you in tiers 2 & 3!
