The First Pages of the Adventures of Bock's Misfits!

日本人ようこそ!どうやって来ましたか分からないけど、お楽しみにして下さい!

Open each page in a new window to see them full size -- just clicking on them puts them in the Blogger interface which is next to useless
Above: Private second class Heinz Guderian. Crime: absent without leave, possession of twenty cases of Kimmel Schnapps. 

Below: Corporal Gerhardt Smeiss. Crime: Cowardice and dereliction of duty.




Above: Kevin "Cobber" Compton.. Stole 6,000 pounds of airplane-grade kerosene and sold them off-base.Hit First-Lieutenant Derek Smythe with a full beer bottle and put put him in a coma for three weeks.


Below: Gestapo agent Specialist Larsen. Able to kill with a small twist to the neck. Crime: in a drunken rage, killing his regimental commander with a small twist to the neck because the commander would not light his cigarette properly.

F-15 pilot Mike "Shorty" Willington, above. Crime: stealing 2,000 gallons of airplane-grade kerosene and selling it off base. Also, multiple transgressions with Ladies of the Night while supposed to be on watch. Dereliction of duty.
Below: Russian Lieutenant Ivanov. Hopeless drunk who crashed an L-15 truck into an ammo dump and set the entire base afire. Only his drunkenness allowed him to wander away in a daze instead of being consumed by the inferno.



Man from the Future: Roy Batty (above). A complete lunatic replicant. 
Above: Hiroshi Sakamoto. Guard in prisoner of war camp for the Allies. Personally murdered six Australian prisoners. 
Below: Mike Becker, outfitter who worked on the Golden Gate Bridge. Drafted. Killed a man in a bar who called his mother a "Bat from Hell."


But now there's a new addition: Major Konig: sniper (below). Crime: killing 25 Russian servicemen. No remorse. Sentence: death.


And finally . . .  the enemy.

  1. MOST excellent. That last guy especially creeps me out!

  2. Yes, Gestapo Umbrella Guy is the worst. He will prove to be the point man in this story . . .

    However, there is a new man on the scene but he hasn't arrived yet. He is definitely going to shake things up.

    (PS You wouldn't believe how long it takes to do this stuff!)

  3. Major Konig looks quite sad and sorry for his crimes. Perhaps his sentence will be commuted to life in prison!

    And I can imagine how long it takes. Love the dramatic lighting!!

  4. Trust me, if this works out, Gumby will make Major Konig wish he'd been an experiment at Auschwitz.

    Rubber men can be remarkably nasty. It's the bendiness that is the key.

  5. The Gumby Enemy Force is scaring me...

  6. You have not yet seen Pokey. Even I quail in his awesome presence.

    The team is assembling. It will take some time. The mission statement is being prepared.

    But I predict the conflict will not end prettily.

    Sometimes the horror of it infects even me . . . two Ambien a night do not let me sleep in tranquility . . . maybe I'll up it to three and a nice cognac.

  7. Nice. Makes me nostalgic for those old strips from the Spectrum.

  8. Ah, but two more characters coming soon! Misfits both! Sniper Zaitsev (antagonist of Konig in Enemy at the Gates) and Tony Montana! He of the poetic vocabulary! ("FOCK you, you focking fock! I bury dose cock-a-roaches!")

    Say hello to my little friends!

    And I bought a bunch of 1/6 folding chairs for their first briefing room meeting with Lt. Al B. Bock!
