Did you actually read this comic right through?

Your age:

Awesome! You've obviously pondered over some deep shit and have come to some absolutely wonderfully profound conclusions

The dialog....I'm going to guess that a lot of this is thinly autobiographical. Could be wrong about that but I kinda think not. Gave the entire yarn some real depth.

Nope.....go with your instincts; they're solid. BTW I loved the nebula too!

I guess from the paragraph below you're a little concerned about how the "political" content will be received. Don't be: you're on solid ground.

You're at your best when you are teasing us.....everything else is just waiting....

Let the mystery be; as a male voyeur, it would be nice to know my guesses about who you are, based on the little info you've given about you proved true, that you are a mid-thirties female bisexual with a possible daddy complex; but hey, the mystery is alluring, and mystery can be good.

Could have been good the stupid politic in it destroyed the comic.
If you want your opinion head do it out of a comic.
I am over your comics gonna find some other comics to read from now on have fun.

nothing was crap jumped in the middle of the spicy stuff with her dad.
And jumped to her looking like an antifa woman with ring in the nose.

keep the real world political shit out of the comic no one wants to read that.

All of it but the real world political dailog bullshit at the end.

I would like not not see any of that political bullshit. Aslo I would like more of the father/daughter stuff.

stop with the political shit.I stop reading at the point it made me not care about yyour dailog after the point. So the heart to heart was wasted.

Amazeballs

Darker and deeper but the most fascinating so far. Showing how the internal conflict developed was very vivid and realistic. Well done. Looking forward to the second part.

Superb.

The chat on the roof of the wan about the statue of Liberty ....

Excellent! (as expected) Deliciously perverted story (I'm talking about the politics, not the daddy issues) and really nice poses and renders.

Pages 102 to 111, the steps leading to the confirmation that Eep does taste of wine gums. The scene itself is hot, but what allowed this scene to happen is much more interesting.

I have faith in you and your creativity. I hope that we will see more redemption. Not through heroic acts of bravery or self-sacrifice, but as you have successfully done in your comics so far: people realizing that they are broken and others are also broken and there is no reason to hate themselves or others for that.

I did read all the text in one go. Honestly. Oh, and a reality check: when Steph gets up on page 166 after the sex scene of pages 150+, she would probably make a mess. Their dance floor would be a bit slippery or sticky.

Awesome!

Liked it illustrated connections between the characters beyond the physical and into the historical baggage that can be overcome. Read the "bubbles" to understand more.

How liberty overcomes decisiveness. My understanding liberty all can find a common ground to heal and unite the human condition.

Give a hint to a destination? Helping Eep, finding Steph's father or somewher else.

Even though I perceived the political statement was weighted one sided. Reading through it all and defining how liberty overcomes decisiveness was a good ending.

Not your best, i can’t relate to your « america, land of muh freedom » part, and it spoil the rest of the comic

The way bob talk about his parents, being raised by narcissic people too, that part really made me relate.
Oh, and the sex too, for.... research reason, yeah gonna go with that.

You’re doing an awesome job, so keep going! I may or may not like everything, but hey! Life is the same, so just enjoying what i can.

I was thinking about a joke including plot « holes » but didn’t found anything worth, gonna keep looking! ;)

Now that is what I would call a message to the world...

the moment Bob saved Steph, being really honest and showing weakness.

I'd like to hear Jen's side of the story as well, also more about Eep.

Are you by chance a psychologist? Or maybe the female version of a "beardy old wizard"? ( :-) ) You sure have something to tell. However, I really like your style. It's already quite late here, but I was kinda waiting for your story. Finally somebody able to show "sexyness" without any of the usual nonsense of forcing, controlling, or whatever one might "want" to feel him/her/itself superior... It is sexy, sometimes innocent, sometimes broken, but always transported in a somewhat believable way. (and that is said while using a sci fi scenario ^^) - and not to forget that you speak out of my heart from time to time with your more serious topics... However, you made my day - again... And as a conclusion, I do not know you, especially not about your opinions and thoughts in your real life, but your writing gives me the impression there is hope for humanity :-)

Loved the first half. Second half started strong but then wobbled and went downhill at the end.

The sexy reading scene. You're great at depicting intimacy. (And is that Ursula Le Guin's "The Dispossessed"? Horny teenage Steph has good taste.)

Trust your readers to get subtext. You don't need to bash their skulls in with it quite so much. And as soon as you start being overtly and specifically political, the muscle-memory defensive walls go up and you lose the great strength of SF: its ability to convince via metaphor.

I didn't understand "we spend our Iliad seeking the goal" on p44 when we're talking about the Odyssey. Going outside to patch the leak doesn't make a lot of sense physics-wise; you want the patch on the side with pressure to hold it in place. And... SAJ, I love you and all and yes I've read the disclaimer below, but this habit of decrying "divisiveness" then explaining how everyone who disagrees with you is basically a Nazi has a bit of an odour to it. People's motivations aren't necessarily the ones ascribed to them by their worst political enemies, and the lack of charity is jarringly out of character for you.

OMG Fantastic

The discussion of human nature and the risks of our base intent

This is a critical time in history. Like the inter-war years, (1920's-30's) people do not recognize the evolving changes leading to disaster

so good

Goddammit, you made me cry again!

Short women with big boobs are in my “hella sexy” wheelhouse, so why would I change anything? Heck, I still miss Ix!

Liked most of it. The political stuff is just not needed imo. But apart from that 10/10.

All i would say is leave politics out of it. I hate it . Its so dividing. I just wanna get lost in your rad comic and get my jollies lol also you should post a selfie 😉

Awesome, as I have come to expect from your work.

Normally I enjoy how casual your characters deal with their sexuality. But now I really enjoyed the detailed description of space (the vacuum).

Like I stated before, you capture the sexual tension between your characters extremely well, seems casual, but it isn't. I'm curious to see where all your storylines are heading. Great work!

Quite dark, but I loved it. I didn't enjoy the political part, as politics only serve to divide, but I respect it all the same. 'Murica is pretty fucked up right now, and there's no end in sight. Both sides are asses.

When Bob saved Steph using his own weakness. There's not enough of that kind of thing in any sort of media. Men are portrayed as either macho, retarded (totally an accurate word), or both. Weakness makes us human, and some of us are damn good humans. Good on you!

I enjoyed the plot, especially when it transitioned from Steph narrating to opening up to Bob. Unexpected and I loved it.

Not what I was expecting.

I actually like the images of space...how sad is that.

Meh. The lighting wasnt as good. you couldnt really see the privates and the black model looks weird

It was good but not enough sex I thought. Could have done without the political comments. Not saying they were extreme or anything but I had a hard time following why they were brought up. Felt disconnected from the story and seemed more of a way to be edgy.

Didn't have any one particular part I liked more than another.

Just incase nobody has told you and I don't blame you for not know because 90% of Americans don't know either. The president has shit powers in the United States and the threat of a hostile take over is more than likely to come from Congress. That is why I don't get why everything gets blamed on Trump. All the terrible shit going on in the United States is happening in Radical left cities. The most discrimination and dispearity of income and inequality is happening in the cities controlled by the people that hate Trump. I am not a big fan of Trump but once I started ignoring mainstream media that just slanders everyone who isn't a radical facist leftist. I read your fun fact below and I understand but I think people are just tired of hearing about it 24/7 I just want to enjoy your excellent work. You are probably going to get quite a few rants. I am sorry about mine but you get tired of turning on the news and hearing how bad Trump is but then the news sweep another story about how some BLM protester or some Radical left wing liberal shot and killed another kid or how another innocent black man, woman or child was killed by black lives matter again. I wish you the best and would love if politics weren't brought up so I won't have to think about all the people that have died from all this when I am just trying to enjoy some boobs.

A potted version of human history from the eighteenth to the present time, showing many of our leaders failings. You blended it well, into a moving plot, which kept me guessing as to the final outcum between Steph and Bob, hahaha.

When Steph applied what Bob had said to her and Eeep, then releases her from the collar... and the wine gum flavoured pussy juice. (I also love the dig at Trump).

You alluded to the possibility of explaining Bob's story in more detail than in Chapter one. Maybe with less time on him, than Steph but perhapse adding one or more of the others.

Just the one reference to Indiana Jones, and as subtle as a sledge hammer. ? We need more subtle Indy or Star Wars references, please.

I really loved this comic; it spoke to me on many levels: storytelling, drama, sex, politics, history and geekiness. Getting Steph's backstory was invaluable, and seeing her growth through the current crisis was heartwarming, perhaps best epitomised by Eep's forgiveness and revelation of her intelligence to her. The sex, as always, is highly arousing - your use of anticipation is absolutely inspired. So much about sex is in the mind first, and you wield that truth expertly. The addition of the political narrative and the long arc of history was very well done. I'm left-wing and come from a family left or centre-left Canadians, which should tell you that a) I don't necessarily view conservatives as the enemy, just fellow humans I disagree with on some issues, and b) I understand all-too well American politics with the front-row seat we have to the horror show that is their politics and political system. They're our brothers and sisters, but like all siblings sometimes you want to just give them a smack upside the head! And the sciency geekiness! I don't have a mind for science, though I understand it reasonably well when it's explained to me, but I loved the insertion of not only what would happen to Steph if she took that last step, but why!

I don't normally provide feedback to online works, whether comics, fan fiction, or anything else...but your work does inspire me. It's also nice that you have this convenient anonymous forum to provide you this feedback; I'm not comfortable making such a post public, mainly because I've been in one too many flame wars online and I swore off of public posting over a decade ago. Without fail, someone could see something in my post above and find it objectionable, respond to it, compelling me to respond...and down the rabbit hole we go. So, thank you for this. For all of your work and the heart and simple human decency you put into it (an ironic statement when talking about a porn comic, lol).

Steph and Bob up on top of the ship/RV, both for the daddy fantasy sex and the political history lesson and how it relates to the current political environment.

"Dabob" Gold. :)

I would love to see further development of all the characters eventually. I love Bob. I love Steph. I like the rest, but I want to love them too.

Like everyone else, 2020 is a rubbish year for me, but it's been that way before the pandemic. Don't worry, I'm okay, but in my profession I'm struggling and it's wearing me down. Your comics are one of my favourite 'pick-me-ups'. And yes, I do go back and re-read both the current two series and the Project Bellerophon comics. So thank you for that :)

Knocked it out of the park, sexy and thought provoking as always.

I loved the parts with her dad, particularly when he 'accidentally' touches her boob and then she puts his hand on it, and when she was warming him up. The sexual tension was phenomenal.
Also the bit where she was telling herself not to fall in love with him was great.

Id love to see the captain's character developed a bit more in the future. Maybe not necessarily the pt 2 since that seems to be about Steph, but at some point

More cumshots! Maybe mainstream porn has just conditioned me to feel this way, but there's something just kind of visually gratifying about seeing cum at the finish, inside or out. Also multipanel orgasms are hot too.

I loved it. It was a bit more challenging to read than the others, but that isn't a negative.

Bob and Steph having a heart to heart talk while Bob is butt fucking Suki. It's really discordant.

I am looking forward to learning more about Eep. She is a fascinating figure and I want to know about Eep world and how they became the galaxy's rubbish.

I am American and I feel very strongly that what you said is true. We are descending (have descended?) into fascism and I am genuinely terrified.

way heavier than i anticipated. still awesome quality, just less "wanky" . i actually really enjoy the backstory to characters, it helps world building

honestly? more wanky stuff xD but i would never tell an artist what to do, since i'm not the one putting in alle the work

Awesome

The tension between Steph and her dad. I love sexual tension.

Fantastic, I love the way you write your characters and make them feel so natural. Though even as a fellow Brit, some of the cursing is definitely... interesting. I do like the overtone that the British colloquialisms gives the characters that sense of uniqueness often lost in other adult comics.

The growth and connection between Bob and Steph. It's very raw and real. And hot. Very, very hot.

Personally, no strong feelings on the development of the story from myself. It's your story, and I think you'll find your own path to walk down with it.

So, this might be a weird one. Or not, given the nature of the comics you make. So, I don't really know anyone personally with the same kind of kinks put on display in your comics, and it would be nice to get in touch with someone who's more open to those kinds of topics. Basically I'd like to get to know the woman behind the comics a bit more if that wouldn't be overstepping boundries? So if you'd be interested in chatting, and this is the scary bit because this isn't a throwaway email and can lead to my identity kinda easily so I'm really hoping this will stay between us even if you aren't interested in talking, you can hit me up at cafalump@hotmail.co.uk. On another note though I don't know if it's something that interests you, but I'm a bit of a game developer too and I'd be equally interested in using your models/stories/ideas towards a project. Anyway I'm going to go hide now and hope this time next week everyone I know hasn't been alerted to my kinks (though you come off as far too nice to do something like that, if your posts are anything to go by). Rambling. Sorry. Love your work, can't wait to see the next comic, best of luck with everything and take care!

It’s awesome

So many things, the sexual things with her dad, the drama when she wants to step out.

Only the French paid for the Statue of Liberty, come on!

I loved it, looking forward to part II

Your comics make my cock so hard, no kidding!

Loved it! Big time!

Them looking into each others eyes. You do those images better than ANYONE!

I used to read a LOT of comics and grahic novels, but not so much lately (work, family & way too many hobbies) but your stories has my full attention. Intelligent dialogue and uber-sexy times - what's not to like? If I could buy hardcover of your comics, I probably would.

Well... That was deep. I like how 'humanly' flawed the characters are. And I like how you discuss global issues, and how you point out the (definitely-not-so-) obvious positive aspects of humanity, but from the points of futuristic humans' and non-humans' views.

The whole conversation between Steph and Bob that explained why Steph is the way she is. I like how the sex (while being present) took a backseat to focus on the personal issues.

Maybe a little 'in-depth' about the other characters as well? Unless of course the comic is all about Steph and Bob. Even then I'd like to get to know the other characters as well. But maybe it shouldn't be in part two, but in future issues.

Steph is not the daughter of Whatshername on that Moon Moon base, is she?

I liked it. To say anything else would take up way too much space.

Bob trying his very hardest not to say England was Earth's biggest bully for a few hundred years.

More flashbacks. Steph (as a teenager, I guess?) narrating was amusing.

The fact that Eep looks translucent but isn't just a brightly-colored bag of green plasma is kind of messing with my head.

Awesome!

I liked all of it, but the back story and the explanation of the current political climate stood out for me.

I can't think of anything, but I'm sure whatever you come up with will work.

I thought the sexiest parts were the father/daughter dynamic in the back-story; not that they were related but the situation itself.

Astonishing. So many fun and naughty bits served up with meaningful and challenging concepts. To paraphrase the oft quoted Mary Poppins: just a spoonful of racy spacey erotic porny funtimes helps the medicine goes down.

Steph's back-story. It was so confessional, so plausible, and the slow, teasing and tantalising reveal was incredibly arousing (while filling me with some sense of understanding of genuine human thought processes). One of the hottest things I think I've ever read (because it was about a lot more than just sexy funtime). It was like the best foreplay.
Oh, and the soft-focus side-boob on page 32. (Typo on page 24: noddle?)

You should do exactly what you want to do! Your heart and soul and playfulness are in sublime alignment, SAJ. Whatever comes next will challenge and excite me.

What happened to Bob's face!? It's gone all blobby and weird. It’s lost some of that everyman innocence. He looks like a Ken doll that's been left too close to the fire. As for your mention of Tolkien and CS Lewis… your writing is already of the calibre, but in a realm that didn’t exist when either were alive. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: your writing, your thought processes, your wordplay and playfulness are right up there with Douglas Adams, and he could well have been the Shakespeare of our time. I totally love the way your mind works – the fun you have with language, the complexity of being human and, of course, the very naughty, honest and playful sexuality – and I’m eternally grateful to you for sharing, warts and all. Please take good care and I hope you find your happiness. Geof (still with one F)

First of all congratulations. Was this the first time you overloaded your drive.google account? It took me a while to get my hands on the file, but it was worth the waiting. Great work.

I think the shower scene is my favourite. First of all for the sex, and especially the new exploring try-out things that seem to interest me more than I knew. Thats probably why I adore the Lithium comic so much. Second reason is I like Eep to come out for herself, and I dont understand why she doesnt. Just like in real life, where I noticed I don't understand everyone either. Third reason of course transparent green women.... I mean.... Come on, why don't they exist? I used to say that beautiful women come in all colors, but I was wrong.

More personal development, more sex (maybe) and may I say a little less ethical morale etc. I agree with the message, that is not the point. I am just not sure a sexual comic is a nice place to feel educated. Plot-wise, is it possible to get Suki more involved? I think i have a weak spot for her. Maybe she can bond with Eep. Ah, Eep should have a name, no? Suggestions? Euhh something weird, foreign, but a little complex. Not one sound, like Eep. Jaqueline, maybe? Rebecca? Indiana?

Ah, just read the fun fact below this. Your comic political? No, I would disagree as well. But this last one has a very obvious morale thing, which could be a little less overwhelming if you ask me. But hey, I explained this in the previous question. And besides, I don't want to impose anything. Its a beautiful comic and I love reading it. Your graphics are much more dynamic than other digital comics, which is a major achievement. The story is exciting sexually and the plot is great. I really cant wait to see what happens to the characters and that is a big difference compared to sexual comics. So yours are in a league of their own.

OMG, I NEVER CAME from reading a comic until I read your material.

I think Trump is the anti-christ, another Hitler... the only thing keeping him from total power is that the US is built on the foundation of tearing such power down. Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. The founding fathers foresaw such tyranny and feared it. aside from that, I can't wait for the next of anything you put out!

Ruined my fapping expierience... cause it`s hard to have dirty thoughts while youre either laughing or crying. Soooo.. think it`s just perfect as it is.
Love all your work, cause you put real thought into it, and I don`t mind if you`re preaching a bit, I even think that not enough people read your comics by far, cause some might get the message. And that would be a step into the right direction.

The scene in the shower with Eep. Loved to see that the person who was treated worst was forgiving and showing that being wrong is just "human", and that you`re doing well as long as you keep learning and trying to be better.

Well... I`d love to see the characters evolve further and maybe a happy ending for everyone? But I think that`s kinda your plan anyway.

Not much more than a really big THANK YOU ! for all the work you put in there, for sharing it with us for free and for hours and hours of fun and riding an emotional rollercoaster at the same time.(Sorry if my English is a bit weird, I´m from the country where all the political mess already happened) ;)

Sindy, it's simply excellent. You raise very important questions about humanity & identity that resonate deeply. I'm 59, & am just beginning to realise that I need to ask myself deep questions about some of the issues you raise. Your writing & your characters are a vital step in the start of the search for the real me. Thank you. Keep it up.

The strength-in-vulnerability scene outside the camper. My Mrs is emotionally vulnerable, & whenever I start to wibble that way myself she goes "I need you to be strong! I need you to be strong!" & so the mask slips on again. Maybe one day I'll be brave enough to tell her that I can't be strong any more: you've given me the permission to feel it's OK.

What makes it sexy is the intelligence with which it's written. Your characters are real (apart from the massive boobs & huge dicks, which, curiously, aren't sexy as they don't reflect most folks's reality) & struggle with important issues while carrying their own & other folks's baggage. And the sex is in context. I love it!

What? When did this come out? I've been fappi.... ehem... a hermit for far too long.

Haven't read it yet. It won't let me download. I'm always late to the party. (Actually I never got invited to parties in reality so i don't really know if this sentence holds meaning at all.)

Can I request a hot tongue action scene? Don't judge. It arouses me more than touching boobs... Not that i've actually touched any yet...

Yes! Absolutely. What were we taking about? Oh why yes, rants! Anyways, i just want to say I hate noisy eaters. For the sake of humanity and all that is good, close your mouth when you chew. Nobody likes bits and pieces of chewed up food flying out when you consume your sustenance.

Little disappointed, I guess. I dunno, I think I have issues with the dad/daughter dynamic, which put me off the rest of the comic. Which is a little rich, seeing as I enjoy older sister and mom/aunt stuff. But I guess there's a theme there! Oh well, it's like they say... different shrinks for different kinks, amirite?

I was really looking forward to this chapter so you can imagine my disappointment when starting around page 95 and going through 126 you climbed up on your moral high horse and got all preachy. Thankfully we got a respite until page 154 where you once again started climbing back up on your moral high horse and three pages later on page 157 you once more got all preachy.

Sadly even some of the sex scenes were borderline moral high horse preachy.

Any part where you were not on your moral high horse being all preachy like the first 90 some odd pages.

Please do not climb up on your moral high horse and get all preachy.

I love you comics! In my humble opinion they are by far the best out there today and not just because they are free. If you were to accept financial support I would gladly give it. But this is a porn comic. Readers grab your comics to read porn, NOT to read you climb up on your moral high horse and preach to us.

Really good.

I supect I know where you are going with Part 2, and if it is what I think, then I think readers will really enjoy it.

Images are great along with the character development. I like how you tie the storylines together.

Best explanation of good human philosophy I have read. Thanks

I am a physics nut, and physics came from philosophy. words are important.

Ooh, your inspiration is stunning, different points of view can continue the explanation of the human condition.

Fucking beautiful

i enjoyed the back and forth play, as it mixes pleasure with pain via sexual themes and serious political issues - not really a mix you encounter often ;)

this is a lil corny (especially given some of the weighty subject matter), but when bob (aka daddy) and stephie stare at each other (pp 132-134) while surrounded by a sea of beautiful bodies... there's such - a connection there, which is what the story (in its simplest form) represents

“ask not the elves for advice, because they will tell you both 'yes' and 'no'.” - jrr tolkien... not that i'm an eld, mind you, but... it's you're vision and not mine or another's. that said, i secretly wish stephie receives the closure she seems to be looking for with regard to her daddy. i'm not sure what form that should take yet it would serve as final catharsis of sorts - maybe...? given the greater arc your stories are taking, tho, part two should also point us in the direction of ethealdor and moon-moon. methinks a liberal sprinkling of special relativitiy will be required - or a space camper that has a wildly fluctuating energy plane...

your baby is beautiful and (more importantly) - yours! if someone calls it ugly, then that's on them. i come from a conservative family, too, and still retain that ideology. but i also believe in open and honest discussion of ideas. i agree with the political aspects you raised but differ on the interpretation of current events. regardless, compelling someone to take a through look at their beliefs - especially the "why do you have those beliefs rather than these" is always worthwhile. and altho i may be right-thinking, i'm certainly not dead sexually ;) i love LOVE the way you interwove sexuality, humor, politics, ethics into a page turning comic (actually, ALL of your comics are like that)! you truly a talent - for the visual story as well as the written story (doodle or doddle is nitpicking - if only our flaws were all that deep). and thank you, THANK YOU for sharing both with others - a problem shared (whatever itmay be) is a problem cut in half :)

I love it, even if the "message", which I absolutly share, could come over a tad more subtile.

Excellent

Love how you deal with current real world issues in comic. Very much a modern day Gene Roddenberry. Keep up the great work

One of your best stuff good job

Beautiful

The way you brought Stephanie full circle. your writing is brilliant in this one

(In what follows I am talking about the whole series 1-6). It is infused with your usual wit and verve for telling stories, and provokes much thought. And of course it is consistently amusing or suspenseful. As a piece of erotica, however, it falls short of the Lithium series. Although there is probably more sex (and certainly more sexual variety) in OHB than in Lithium, it lacks the sexual tension that informs the earlier work.

Jen’s attempts at colloquial English in Comic #1, because they made me lol.

It is probably too late to suggest anything, but in the “Odyssean” aspect of Part II I should like to see emphasized that the “journey” is also the act of “seeking one’s soul”: ἀρνύμενος ἥν τε ψυχὴν, Odyssey I 5, is usually translated “trying to bring himself back alive” or the like, but the root meaning of ψυχή is “soul, essence of one’s being”.

There are so many paths to pursue, for instance the journey to Ithaca, what is true freedom, what does “ownership” entail, the “father” fetish, but I will confine my comments to one topic (only glancing sideways at the last two). That is, the relationship(?s) of love and sex. In #2 Suki presents their little community as “one big happy family”, who have sex with each other for recreation or to get physical release. They love each other (Suki even claims that they love Eep), but this love is the love of sisters or friends. Bob claims that “when the core stuff is set right, the sex is more of a beautiful symptom; if it follows love it’s all the better for it”. Cf. also in #6 Bob’s remark “humping’s fun but it’s nothing like real …”. Does this mean only that sex is enhanced by love, and that it is OK to love someone (and get extra special sex with that person) but continue to have sex with others as the occasion arises? That would seem to be implied by the sequence in #6 where, after Bob has rescued Steph from self-immolation and declared that he loves her, they both go back and take part in a free-for-all romp with the others (even though they then go off to make love to each other by themselves). Is there a tension here (as there would be for me and many readers)? Or is exclusivity between two lovers a form of ownership (and hence, by Bob’s belief that “love starts with being equal”) not true love? A similar question arises with the role-playing father-daughter lovemaking. Does not that very concept imply inequality and “ownership” by the “father”. I am reminded of the situation in the Chinese novel Chin P’ing Mei (translated “The Golden Lotus” or “The Plum in the Golden Vase”), in which the chief male character is called “Father” by his six wives and concubines, and addressed as “Daddy” by them in the ecstasies of sexual congress (example [II p. 148 of David Tod Roy’s translation]: “My big-dicked Daddy! What are you up to? Go all the way in and be done with it. The itch in the clitoris of the cunt of this whore of yours has entered into the marrow of her bones”). Hsi-men Ch’ing obviously “owns” these women, and their unequal status is shown by the fact that although they permit him every sexual liberty, including oral and anal, he never goes down on them. One more remark: Bob is not a very believable character so far; he is mostly either a passive participant (does he ever initiate sex?) or a mouthpiece for the author (it shouldn’t be necessary to make explicit what is implicit in the speech and actions of the characters; that is why I think George Eliot a more persuasive writer than Dickens, although both are great). In #6 you hint at a dark side of Bob: I hope that this will appear in Part II, to which I look forward eagerly. Thank you for sharing your enormous talents with us. GJT.

Dear Sindy,
I discovered your comics just a few weeks ago and am overall blown away. Smart porn that is still porn is so rare, in particular in 3DX, where the graphically good ones, like X3Z, are typically damsels in distress being raped by monsters (excellent visuals though). Love the self-referential stuff and the pop references. Steph’s character is really well developing. The romance element, like when Steph’s grabbing Bob’s hand, makes it even hotter. Some scenes, like the anal in the bathroom, are just so good in its cinematographic quality - they really make best use of comic as a visual medium.
Similar comments to the lithium series.
Sorry for being such a bore. I am sure you heard this a-plenty. Still, compliments can never be enough I assume...
Now on 6/1 specifically. Mind you, I am not into this daddy thing, I take the whole first part as the price to pay to learn more about Steph. However, where I am really concerned is Bob’s character development and the dominant role of our day-to-day politics in the second half, in particular the scene on the roof.
Sorry, probably still being a bore, as you might have heard this before.
It is not that I disagree on the substance - if anything, this makes it even worse (Keep thinking: I know all this, please don’t waste my and Steph’s time, you bloody preacher...). But:
First, the whole passage is just graphically unconvincing, it is endless text in basically the same setting. I get the message about bridges not walls and totally share it. But it would just be more powerful if it were told with and through the medium. As noted above, in some of your best scenes, there is actually little to no words and they are so effective because of this!
Second, poor Bob is becoming more and more of a prick. Sorry to say, but this endless mansplaining while the lady is looking up in awe is just getting on my nerves. Is this really the message you want to convey? The scene with Suki before I actually found disrespectful. I get that you want to convey that they are all so relaxed about sex but still, there is a time for everything, and combining preaching ethics to lady 1 while fucking lady 2 in the ass is just plain old bad behaviour. It is just good that Suki is so patient...but the power of man is the patience of the women, right?
In a sense, you are abusing him. The poor bloke has to become a total jerk so that _you_ can rant about Trump and brexit...is this fair?
So: less words, more deeds. Less is more in general. Use the medium, not just the text balloons.
Btw, my gold standard in terms of political commentary in scifi comics is still Valerian and Laureline’s “Les Heros de l’Equinoxe” ... totally hilarious and graphically as mindblowing today as it was then.
In any case. You are what you are, and you do it as a hobby, right? And we (the readers) are still getting a lot of excellent stuff for free. So there is no reason whatsoever why you should listen to us.
So here is my real point: get an editor. I get that you want to keep it discreet and not go professional. But can you not at least find a confidante with whom you can share and get some honest and blunt feedback? This would help immensely in cutting the slack and maintaining the integrity of the characters and the storyline.
To end on a positive note, the way Steph’s daddy complex is being defused into the role-play scene at the end is totally hilarious ... this is really SAJ at her best!
I’d have some ideas for knitting the two stories together - even though I assume it is getting late for this, and for some possible cool references. I’ll send separately.
Best wishes,
Martin

Sorry for not following your form - it is included in the above. Hope it doesn't mess with your filing system...:-)

Dear Sindy,
I had to be out of the loop and just read your latest two blogs. In light of what I said the last time, I was happy to hear that you removed chat... but I was also a bit concerned.
First, just to say I hope I did not say anything that gave you reason to get drunk?! Please simply disregard as/if not applicable (one tends to over-estimate one’s impact), but if there was anything that gave offence i.e. went down the wrong throat I’d like to say that this was by no means intended and to apologize just in case...
And second, as I came to realize when now reading through the Bellerophon project, you are actually very good with « many » words in some scenes. Thinking about Zan and Xho in STFW 12 which works actually through the spoken content. Xho and Ix in STFW 18 has beautiful dialogue and is very well balanced too. All to say I hope you wont overshoot. I guess I was mainly concerned about the political preaching...and the implications it has for Bob’s character...
In any case.
I am actually writing to share my vision on how to link the two strands. I completely realize it is too late to have any impact, and that’s not the intent...and I actually look forward to the solution you’ll come up with...but it’s always nice to play around with what ifs, isn't it?
Let me also apologize in advance and beg for your patience if you heard this idea ten times before. I was frantically looking through the blog on whether and when you gave feedback on proposals received, but could only find the one about Mike (and frankly I am not particularly interested in Mike), so sorry if I missed the discussion.
So: I believe there is a strong case for Bob and Steph being Charlie’s and Jack’s parents. Now, and before you jump up and down (?) or jawn your jaw off, I’ll give the story line and then talk about the pros and cons plot-wise.
Story line:
The crew in OHB goes on in playing the very decisive role in freeing Eep’s people (to the extent that future foreign affairs ministers put commemorative pictures of their “spaceship” on the wall). This is epic stuff, think US-American civil war in space-opera style.
In this process, and by « accident » (think battle situation), they are thrown into a long and high-speed journey into Einstein space. By the time they manage to slow down (or get the hyperdrive to work again), they are a couple of centuries later.
They have been worshipped as heroes in the meantime but do not manage the transition well. Result: major fallout between Jen and Steph... and the rest of the crew. Alternative or complement: alienation start during the long trip through relativistic (is this the right term?) space. Result: Jen « goes over to the dark side »
Steph and Bob get their kids during or shortly after the trip or after their arrival in the 23rd century. Steph cannot handle the transition and the alienation from her sister. Her self-destructive/suicidal tendencies come back in force. And the rest is history as told by Jack in lithium 7.
Further story is about Karen’s redemption... and perhaps about Mike. And how two horny teen-agers come to grips with this legacy ... and their love...
I start with the cons - rhetorically more compelling. And (roughly) by order of reverse importance.
Cons:
Steph being non-human: that’s nonsense, with all due respect. Nothing that 23th century human biotechnology (or 20th century biotechnology of an alien civilization) couldn’t fix. The advantage of sci-fi is that you can easily and convincingly gloss over such petitesses with just some science/technology mambo-jumbo (you’re a trekkie, so you know what I am talking about).
Corollary: the pointed ears could be recessive genes. They dont show in Charlie and Jack but could appear in their children.
Perhaps the most important downside is the impact on Jen’s character. Poor her! But then, her role is also under-developed, isn’t she? So, it is high time that s/th happens with her. And it provides epic opportunities for her redemption!
In terms of the graphics, it seems to be feasible - one could imagine seeing in Karen an older and way embittered Jen...
Obviously, she’s called Karen right now. Again, a minor hindrance. First, changing names is standard when going over to the dark side, isnt it? And second, Karen could simply be a (very befitting) cultural allusion (« Karen » like in « entitled white middle-class bitch with attitude »).
Pros:
It would fit Jack’s story perfectly. Their mom being a pilot, suicidal, and their dad being the voice of reason...somewhat at least...but could not prevail.
This « Mr. Spock with a wig » picture ... this _is_ family heirloom, isnt it?
It would work well with Charlie ´s dark side - heritage from her mom but buffered by the lighter character of her dad.
It would also « explain » Jack’s big dick (assuming that this is still nature not nurture, haha!).
It simply is so obvious that they are their children. They can redeem their parents’ lack of luck through their own love. They can succeed where their parents failed...can they?
Still re. Jen, it could provide opportunities for nice commentary on the trappings of a professional lifestyle under patriarchical /capitalist conditions ( ... even though this is difficult to navigate without becoming too shallow).
Most importantly, It would give the plot the power of a classical Greek drama - with a Christian twist about Jen’s potential redemption and the power (and limitations) of love, in light of brokeness and the darker side of sexuality. And the porn side certainly works very well with classical Greek mythology...and makes sure that the « Christian » message doesnt get bitgotry or sanctimonious...
And plenty of opportunity for fornication!
Hey, it would be EPIC!!
Sorry, being swept away by enthousiasm...
In any case, just wanted to get this off... and as said look forward to what you will come up with. Would love to see some feedback on what others thought...just curious to see whether I am totally mainstream or completely fringe...
Best wishes,
Martin

Sorry again for using this form! But prefer the non- public way...

Brilliant as ever and now with extra depth

Tricky but the dialogue around 'standard penetration' was probably the funniest and I liked 'who wrote this bloody comic'. But the build up to p83 was very hawt indeed as was the scene around p157. Also great boobs, always a bonus.

It's the sexual tension what makes it sexy innit, a very rare thing anywhere on or offline

Love the work you are doing. Made me wish i was creating my own stuff. Even have a Graphic Arts degree, figured I better use it for something. May you work as long as you care too.

I would love to know your process for creating the backgrounds, as well as posing the characters. Tried using Poser and it seemed more of a handful than 3DStudio MAX and Maya are creating models from scratch! Once again, may you work as long as you care to! Cheers from the US.

It's always great, never been anything less 👍

The tie in at the end about identity, very well written.

Whoa. Whoaier than Neo galloping toward a cliffedge. I think this is by a fair margin the most assured writing I've ever seen from you; the way it blends comic absurdity, poetry, did-someone-just-set-off-a-thermonuclear-device-in-my-underpants sexytimes and serious secular spirituality is truly, truly impressive.

God, where to start? Queen Eep the Pantsless, First of her Name. "Space Wombles", a definite risk factor for unsolicited marriage proposals. Mike's dark night of the soul, although it's a bit too painful to really be called "favourite". His redemption at the end as you pull back to give him the "It's A Wonderful Life" treatment. The evil jacuzzi. Your take on Gandalf.

Monumentally fucking up does not have to be the end. I'm not as convinced as you seem to be that a clearly-delineated "fall" is *necessary*; I think personal change like political change can be evolutionary as well as revolutionary, and with lower risk of gulags and guillotines - there's no guarantee that falls end well. But they *can*, and that matters.

I was wondering when you'd get to the Shooting Stars refs - "with a face like a hobbit's verucca" - but assumed it would be in Lithium where you have an actual Jack to insult. Pretty sure one bestrides the narrow WORLD like a colossus, not WAYS, but whatevs. One last thing - I've hesitated to bring this up, because I'm 99% sure I'm reading much more than was intended, but your association of "being a shitty person" with "being/dying alone" has become a pattern and always feels like a boot in the nethers. I've been alone for pretty much my whole adult life, and expect to die alone in the not too distant future. I made my peace with that a long time ago; it's not fun but there are far worse alternatives. But I hope the implication here isn't that aloneness is evidence of shittiness. That's ascribing a level of naturalistic justice to society and/or the universe which I don't think they've earned.

It is without doubt your best work to date but (intentionally I think) difficult to read (due to the subject matter). I think we understand why Stef has some minor daddy issues. I loved it and plan on going back and visiting it again soon.

Surprisingly while the sexy bits are awesome I loved the scene that overlaps “space tentacle hentai sex fest” (or you know the real name.) it was really cool that you went there.

I just want to say how much I love your work. Thank you for what you do.

amazing quality. i personally just dont like Dad stuff

Probalby the finale. When Mike sweeps the tracks in the command.

That no matter how deep one falls he can allways get back on his feet.

I love your comics. Especially the final part. Because if you look beneath the erotic stuff there is much deeper meaning there and that's what I love about you comics most.

It is literature that makes you cum...all over the place.

the initial sex, because I won't IRL. The ending BC it's a laugh.

I like your work because it is deep and excites my head and brain.

It is Sci Fi (which I like), and you leave me hanging in a nice "looking forward to our next fuck, but I don't know when i will see you naked again" kinda way. I like your politics, I like your kink, your soul is so attractive. Well, I am sure I am not th only one to give you positive feedback, but I would like to say "Thank you."

It's gorgeous. Really. Although daddy-daughter thing isn't my kink and it definitely rise an anxiety in me (not because of there's some daddy-daughter thing in my life - I'm neither one of them, and I didn't even be in any relationships for years) - just because of difference in age between the characters, and because you have really catch this feeling of madness, obsession and self-hatred, so familiar to me (and that's why so disturbing). But the whole story is... just gorgeous. It's full. It's fun.
And it's real.

How it connects all other your stories and the whole plot with awesome ending (yeah, and about music - it was absolutely amazing to connect comic and music together. Even though I'm not native English-speaker, the timing and connection between text, images and music are incredible).

Bob's reaction to realizing that the "just being" part of his life may have just ended

Not since the debut of Beethoven's 9th, the unveiling of the Sistine Chapel and the discovery of the Lascaux Caves has something been such a perfect reflection of the human condition. Wonderful, powerful and sexy. Simply great.

You're great, intelligent, sexy and witty. An oasis in thes sea of shit that we now live in. The boobs are amazing. Didn't like the loss of focus in some of the pussy shots. Loved the Ursula Le Guin references, I was so saddened when I heard she had passed away. Also saddened by the misery that we're going through, so your lessoms on hitting the bottom are quit relevant to a huge number of people, I guess you could say its a message of hope among the hopelessness that so many are feeling. A big non PC kiss and a hug from an avid admirer.

Mike's transition into the strictly structured Moon-Moon activities with rebellious flair and admiration.

Just before the ecstasy montage, working in the butt-play was a treat.

I was unsure about hearing the story from the male voice; hearing lust from a female mind is a real turn on (7, pt 1). That being said, you did mike justice and then some.

It was simply awesome, though I think not everyone will appreciate it. Maybe the ones who go through your work twice, reading the text first and masturbating to the pictures going through it second time will share my opinion... Your best work so far.
Buuuut it also frightens me a bit cause it feels like you are reaching the climax of all three story arcs, and I fear you could stop. Especially if you finally reach the fourth phase.
I could say I freaking love you, but as I don"t know you I better say I love what you shared with us. It's more than just comics, right?
Anyway.... Kudos from me, and I hope I am wrong and you keep up your "work" and keep sharing it with us.
Be safe, be real, be happy
(And sorry if this sounded weird, English is not my native language)

The ending part with Mike on the moon moon. I love the thought he finally found his peace of mind.

Thanks for a sleepless night... I had to reread the first six parts first, and yes, I actually went through part seven twice 😉 Can't thank you enough.

More of an in general; You really know how to breathe life into characters. Even in absurdity, a certain "real" comes through, that's probably you, I dunno, either way, your stories have a feel to it. Unique but wholly recognizable, and here's where my descriptors fall apart. It's difficult to put into words, but reading your stories feels comfortable, like home. Not like being comfortable with any particular subject matter, or a literal home, but that place inside where you're yourself, comfortable and content. Sounds a bit flaky, hope my meaning comes across well enough.

chips (ha ha, look at me, number 372 to say this, and number 231 to be selfaware of it like this, so funny) to be honest, still unpacking, can't say yet.

Thanks for all the hard work, you've been at it for so long, so thanks for all the fish (and chips).

your story crafting is... hmmm... grow, stiffen, big-ify, pulse, engorge, hugenate (to borrow from lithium - 7) ;) seriously, tho, i'm having a difficult time putting to words how - overwhelmed i am (in the BEST way)! this episode puts real faces on the characters i've come to - love (i think that's the right word) over these many months of reading. yes, mike's human with all the failings that entail - as well as redemptions. and i hope stephie understands why her dad acted the way he did - whether it was the shared, physical love or leaving her... and dosing the reader with several, philosophical perspectives was - brilliant. methinks you've a liberal arts education or are naturally intuitive with the human psyche...? regardless, the artwork was - superb AND unique... your stories ONLY make me smile after reading them, as well as sad because (imperfect as i am) i'm left wanting... MORE! i DO believe that we need to fall (a true fall and not a toe stub) to better - appreciate the wonders and blessings that already exist in our lives. and personally, i rejoice at your having survived the fall. admittedly, tho, i'm selfish for wanting more - from you. BUT - i'd be content for having what you've already given freely, knowing you were finally able to truly live within that fourth phase... i found the words (after all that) - thank you oh-so-very MUCH :)

altho i found mike's fourth phase and its realization compelling, pp 169-172 made the "click' sound in my brain. stephie appears as both girl and woman and mike appears as man and father, yet the two are surrounded by love and comfort, as well as anguish and angst - very powerful renderings of so, so many emotions in such a small time space! as for the strict hedonism (i'd be - silly if i didn't enjoy your stories THAT way, too), p 164 where they're connected by a single thread of - desire, as she scribbles in her diary (i recall writing similar... "x-rated filth" in my own diary) - this was a WOW scene for me :) the nostalgia, yes, but symbolism made me unblushingly - wet (score one for the author/illustrator ;)

the hem of love has many facets with some hidden to us because ot the overall brilliance. sometimes, being blinded and relearning how to see brings greater clarity. while the frentic sexual escapeds of "amphetamine-laced rabbits, drenching unquentiable thirsts and throwing water ballons at supernovea" renders pretty pictures, the intensity burns very bright before fading quickly to a glowing ember. love requires a strong, steady pulse to lovers back from the nebula formed after the supernova... oh - and "chips" (couldn't resist) :)

i've said it previously on your blog, but - thank you - for sharing so unconditionally of yourself. your stories resonate with me - not from a sexual perpsective (altho i DO enjoy your - style) but from a more fundamental nature (not sure that sounds right but only way i know how to describe). your humor, too, is spot on - yet another reason to smile as i eagerly read each story! so, yes - THANK YOU :D

A deeply disturbing attempt at moralizing about the insipid and insignificant and justification of the positively reprehensible.

You are deeply in need of psychological or spiritual help that isn't sourced from similar broken people on discord or tumblr.

No, seriously, please get some help, even if it means you're not going to make these anymore.

So horny..... need sex.... neeeeeed to eat pussy.... need to fuuucccckkkk!!!!!

All of it was excellent, but I particularly liked the taboo

I already commented, but thought it was worth another one... Your comics make me cum HARD... I inadvertently gave myself a facial... again... it stings a little when it gets in your eye...THANK YOU!

The build up, the sex, the crumbling moral issue and the sacrifice

Love your work, grateful and hope you will continue for a long time

It was unexpected, and in a good way. The reveal of Eep was always going to happen, but the way it all came out and the plot twist about her being the princess of her people...well, it was delightfully surprising. As you well know, this world can be so dark and jaded and everything can seem inevitable. Something that is unexpected and makes you smile is to be cherished. And you did it not once, but twice in this comic, with Mike's story also a delightful surprise.

I'm sure some asshats will give you grief over the daddy-daughter incest, but honestly, if they've read this far you can assume they've come into this with their eyes open, what with your other comics. The incest fantasy is just that: a fantasy, an opportunity to allow your id to go a little nuts without harm. I've read your comics and been aroused by them, not only for the artwork but the relationships, both incestuous and not. You can be turned on by incest; it's when you actually project those feelings into real life that there's danger. The taboo nature turns me on, but I have no such feelings for any of my family. I presume that's the same for most people similarly interested in incest porn. To be honest, the concept of it in real life squicks me a bit, but if it's two consenting adults...I dunno...leave them to it I suppose as long as they're not hurting anyone.

Which brings me to Mike. I'm guessing Steph is of age of consent in this (you might have said so previously one way or the other, but I haven't gone back to check), and if so the justification for such a relationship falls under my views above; I say this because this goes WAY beyond simple incest porn and into logical consequences for such behaviour in an otherwise ethical and moral person. Even if Steph is an adult, after all, there is the implied abuse by someone in a position of authority, as that is one of the considerations of the parent-child relationship. Clearly Steph wants this, but has she thought through all the consequences? Probably not, but Mike certainly has...and does it anyway (the man was sorely tempted, and he's only human).

And yet he has that moment of clarity, which you relate so well to philosophy and then tie it to Tolkien's work...and my mind just went boom. There's Mike, who's sunk into depravity, and comes out the other side of it with a renewed perspective on life, one where the needs of the self are far secondary to the needs of everyone else. And he stands out for it, being accepted for his name rather than his number among the other troopers. I just thought that was so well done.

Beyond the story and the philisophical questions, I just want to again praise you for the artwork. I can't imagine how much work goes into this whole process, but it's fantastic. And as always, the sex scenes are hot, especially for the indecipherable grunting and moaning that accompanies them.

Lastly, I love how it's tying all your work together, but it makes me feel like there is a conclusion coming that may signify the end of your work (it could be said that this is perhaps your opus). If so, I'm confident that the satisfaction of having enjoyed a complete and multi-layered story will overcome the melancholy of knowing there's no more.

Thank you Sindy, your work really speaks to me (obviously, lol).

Besides the revelatory aspects I've already discussed, the humour always gets me: "None taken." "Tea?" 'Kenneth's' search history. Courgettes and their uses in cooking. You have a wicked wit!

The message that we're all flawed, imperfect people, but if we make it our focus to help other people, we can find peace and even joy for ourselves.

I have been in love with the view of the Federation of Planets since watching STNG. I continue to hope that our world achieves that state. As Captain Picard would say: "Make it so."

I'll be honest, the erotic father/daughter part of the story was really good, but the "Mike" part after that was even better. The character's conflict with himself trying to explain his actions from his own point of view gave me a certain level of involvement in the story.

It is a work of fiction and must be understood like that. Even with "ethics" on the way, I think you are doing a great job exploring human nature using eroticism as an excuse. And the visuals are amazing too.

In a World where nobody has a name...I got something. I don't think that I need to explain why that is my favourite bit.

One regret: Again waiting for the suite to come. By the way one of your torrent on E Hentai stops, too bad. No, seriously, thanks for the great job done !

I liked it! More narration than I was expecting, but it's a story told in flashback, so I don't know why I thought there'd be less narration.

When all of Cutthroat Bitch's army was like "Hey Mike!" because that may or may not also be my name, so I got a kick out of it. On a less egotistical level, the chat Mike had with the smugglers when he popped into the future.

Why can't I say chips? Pizza on takeaway is pretty good too; just gotta find yourself one that is open 24 hours a day. But really, the lesson seems to be "falling down is okay, maybe even necessary, because then you get to stand back up stronger than before." Maybe.

So we get the origin of the Star Trek references, but what about the Star Wars ones? And there's an itch in the back of my brain that 350 years isn't going to stop Mike and Steph from some sort of reconciliation.

It is without doubt your best work to date but (intentionally I think) difficult to read (due to the subject matter). I think we understand why Stef has some minor daddy issues. I loved it and plan on going back and visiting it again soon.

Surprisingly while the sexy bits are awesome I loved the scene that overlaps “space tentacle hentai sex fest” (or you know the real name.) it was really cool that you went there.

I just want to say how much I love your work. Thank you for what you do.

So, all of the bad guys knew him because he gave them cigarettes?

Again great pictures, an incredible and unexpected twist. I never expected to see the two stories running together like this. I hope many more editions of this odyssey will follow!

Mike's finding the Fourth Stage: as you rightly say, Rohr, Williams, Tolkien & others point us to that place where we can be whole in our brokenness. (I ADORE the Velveteen Rabbit!!!)

It's OK to be broken: think that Japanese art form where broken bowls are stuck together with golden lines to emphasise the scars.

I love what you're doing, & wish I could share it with a wider audience for whom the shagging would be a barrier!

I loved it! You have a depth of understanding of humanity that comes indeed from looking back from the Fourth Phase. My only quibble is about Mike's descent & ascent: I would've loved a few (3-4) more pages of his inner wrestlings, whirling round Sufi-like to pick up others of us in his gravitational pull, before the (absolutely necessary) climb up to where you left him. From where I sit, the ascent has rather more turbulence than you show - tho, of course, we're talking narrative compression & I ought to shut up & simply say I love what you've done. Mmmm. Work to be done in me, perhaps - but you've inspired it, so molto grazie to you, dear Sindy.

I love th echoes of the spacey-rapey episode when Mike traverses the boardwalk. So real, where the other chap just assumes everyone's noticed his angel , but, no, it's just him.

wonderful change of view, also, happy to see all those series of you coming together

The emotional voyage of Mike. he lost himself unable to face his situation, his doings, his own daughter, he nearly broke down on that to a point he'd rather died. But as he started facing his demons, starting the "new life" (by the way while using the exact resources he gathered with his daughter), he developed himself. Would love to see how Steph would react if she'd ever find out.

face your deamons. The fourth phase is somewhere out there, waiting for you.

Your work is worth reading multiple times. I think until now, I've read every comic of yours at least twice (including this one). It is intelligent and sexy - not only because of the actual sex, but because of the tension, the brokenness. There is no super hero, every one has his dark side, e v e r y o n e
