Seeing Red Part 2
Cape May, New Jersey is one of my favorite places in the world, a beach town that is itself an historical landmark, replete with Victorian-era houses. It also has some World War II history. Just outside of town, a strange, rectangular concrete structure occupies the beach. For many years, it was partially submerged in the sea and inaccessible. But beach reclamation has now left it standing openly on the sand like a mysterious Egyptian ruin. In my young mind, it was the entrance to a secret underground lair populated by lizard people or transforming robots. In reality, it was once a gun emplacement bunker from which the U.S. military maintained a wary eye on the sea for any errant German U-Boats. All you’ll actually find inside the concrete walls these days is sand and seagull poop. But I think it still inspired me to write this story, which I didn’t even realize until completing the comic.

I just binged the entirety of Space! It was really good, I can’t wait for more. Wouldn’t it be more fitting to have the gemini twins in the banner instead of Mr. Mtron #3247?
Thanks, Wirza! That’s a lengthy read! (The 500th comic goes up in a couple of weeks!) That’s actually supposed to be Scouse in the banner, from one of the few times he has appeared without his sunglasses. My good friend Tim made that banner for me a long time ago. Maybe it is time to refresh it (and adding the Gemini twins is a good idea). I typically update the comic once a week on Sunday.
Please keep Scouse. Maybe just make the banner bigger.
Oh yeah, I don’t wanna lose him! Updating the banner is on my To-Do list.
When I said I wanted to see more of Red this is not what I had in mind…
When you said you were looking forward to seeing more of her, and I said you would, I knew this was coming. lol
You magnificent bastard you…..!!!
LOL, at least I didn’t say you’ll be seeing more of Schwartz real soon.
