I'm glad you enjoyed it. As stated before, there are only a handful of Gideon Faust stories. Chaykin probably could've done more with him, but he's generally a short and sweet kind of guy when it comes to his OCs, other than American Flagg and American Century
>>
>>92082645
Oops, sorry.
You can tell the writer didn't like the gig and was just trying to fuck around with the audience. It's just goofy porn that tries to see how far can it go, but the art is great. I like it for what it is.
