VAINGIRLS #106 - 110: The Next Generation!

Sometimes I suspect that those who comes up with the real comics whose covers I use are even more twisted than myself; 106 is based on a comic titled "Painkiller Jane." My use of its cover was inspired by an old 1965 Tom Lehrer song, "Werner Von Braun", and that's where the descriptive quote comes from.

#107 comes from a "Hellina" cover; I liked the way the heroine seemed to be talking to the audience. I asked myself what was the most boring occupation I could think of and came up with accountant. And then I asked myself how a non-boring TG accountant might view her work.

Numbers 108 ("Millie" based) and 109 ("Henry Aldrich") are just classic TG fiction. I may actually write the story to go with #109.

The whole of #110 ("Fathom") just came to me in a flash when I saw those guns !!

Enjoy. I had fun!

Superb set, Jezzi.

The "Shemale Superspy" reminds me of the old parody of a hardboiled detective novel: "I opened the door and there they were, two 38s staring me in the face. She also had a gun."

And the US could really use Mistress Millicent running the Treasury Department. "Slaying the dragons of fiscal irresponsibility." indeed!

Thank you.

Ooops! I meant to go on to say...

Some very creative covers here. I'd never thought of Painkiller Jane in this context.

I changed #108 slightly to make it the beginning of a four issue story. I found three other "Millie" covers that would work with it. Part 2 will be one of issues 111 - 115, 3 of 116 - 120, and 4 of 121 - 125.

Nope, it's from Image Comic's title "Fathom", issue 13. It looks like a gift for a "New girl who's definitely not embraced girlhood, coming back to put the Mad Science feminisers out of business" scenario, but somehow it doesn't light my fires.

Thanks Andi.
I just had a hunch.
The same Artist must do both Titles...
I have a few 'Fathom' and Tomb Raider Graphic Novels.
