Hi, Web-ed. Thanks for the comments.

I laughed out loud at the panel where cleanup man is counting "Two hundred and one..." although for eroticism I think I liked the preceding panel more, with Katie seen from the front stark naked and a very alarmed expression on her face (good job on that), or the following panel, where the "one to grow on" spank is administered, eliciting an "OWWEEE!" from Katie. (I always like to see some sign that the spankee feels the "big swat").
I'm glad you liked those panels. I believe this might be the first time I actually showed Katie's nipples in one of my cartoons. Since she was in her birthday suit and there wasn't a way to hide then without looking really awkward... As I told Phil, I'm not as much of a "boob-man" as most of the guys I know, but I do like them and I've always drawn Katie's somewhat large... (More like Wenzel's or Decarlo's version of big boobs than Ward's) I'm also glad you liked the look on her face. With a simplified line drawing, like the type I do, it's not always easy to get the expressions just right. And, of course, putting the "Two hundred and one" in-between the "One... two... three..." and the "One to grow on!" was intended to show a lapse of time. I'm glad I struck a humorous chord with that panel!

Obviously tolerances differ, but I have administered 200 with the paddle, and I think that most of us have given someone several hundred hand spanks on occasion, so 1000 spanks seems well within the bounds of possibility given a reasonably durable spankee and the individual swats not being too hard. (Note to female novice spankos who may be reading this - please do not get scared off! I never give a spankee more than she can handle (I've cut off paddlings at 15 or so swats if that's all she could take) and most of us experienced spanking men know that tolerances vary greatly among women).
Well... I've never given a woman that many swats in real life, and I don't think I would. This spanking, like the 1480-swat New Year's resolution spanking, the time she got 1000 swats at "maximum sting" from the Dan-o-matic, and others like that, are intended to be fanciful exaggerations. (And another thing... have you ever noticed that even after one of those prolonged spankings, even though her bottom usually turns an impossibly bright shade of red, there are never any lasting bruises? She always starts out on the next day with an unmarked bottom.)
I'm not sure that Katie should have been able to see herself running from Bullmoose, but perhaps it's possible if she didn't return at precisely the same instant she left - her "second self" probably vanished at the same time she did before, leaving this "second" Katie alone, and we needn't worry too much about the niceties of the space-time continuum here. With the time-stream returned to normal, it's natural that Katie should be overcome with romantic feelings for Bullmoose. And with things back to normal, it's natural that Bullmoose should be spanking Katie
