I decided to merge all the monthly news posts under the single topic, "Latest News". I suppose I originally intended to delete these bulletins as they became old, but then we started to see a lot of responses and I didn't want to delete them (although I did "orphan" a few of them by deleting one of my old posts). So we'll try it this way and see if it leaves the forum less cluttered.
We're kicking July off with the
Bill Ward Blowout, but haven't decided exactly where to go from there. It's getting to be very difficult to update all 3 of CSR's principal galleries every week, so I may cut it down to 2 for a while. I've got a lot of stuff for both the Comics and Humor galleries that's burning a hole in my pocket, so I may concentrate on them for a while. Summer makes me think of
Jungle Girl spankings, but unfortunately I don't have any, so next week I'm going for the closest things I have - spankings involving Conan, Tarzan, and Lara Croft. All of these have been seen before, although the Conan ones are not very well known. After that, I want to turn the spotlight on the spankings discovered not by me but by the new site,
Spanking Panels. Look for it probably in a couple of weeks.
On the Humor front, I do have some new stuff from the big guys, DeCarlo, Stiles, and Homer. I would like to do a long series on each of these. I even have an amazing F/M spanking by Stiles - I'm amazed he did one and I'm amazed Abe Goodman of Humorama actually printed it. It's of historical interest, I suppose, although I really wish he'd reversed the roles!
Meanwhile, I'm continuing my laborious search through Golden Age comics. So far, I've only found two really good spankings - the one from
A Moon, A Girl, Romance which has been seen before (although possibly not the color version), and the
Firebrand one, which I posted last week. I had hoped for more from the Marvel Family, but so far all I found from them are previously undiscovered F/M and M/M ones. Here is a summary of my other research so far:
- Plastic Man seemed a good bet to me too, but if I'd thought about it more I would have realized his zany antics would most likely lead to a comedic M/M spanking, which is exactly what I've found. I haven't seen it on the 'net before, and I'll post it in the next Weird Spankings series.
Blackhawk seemed like a good bet, an adventure strip with plenty of bad women who deserved a spanking almost every issue! Yet I found nothing.
Doll Man - he's really too small to get a female villain over his knee, but there were a lot of backup features in his mag, including Torchy, that make it worthwhile to check. So far, no soap...
Bulletman - I always thought he was boring when Roy Thomas or somebody would trot him out for a guest appearance in a DC book, and going over his old comics hasn't changed my mind. I wish someone would spank Bulletgirl, but so far it hasn't happened. Eventually, I'll go through some more of these.
Bill Battle - didn't come up with anything, but as there are now two known spankings from War comics, I'm staring to think they have some real spanking potential. Researching them may be difficult, however.
Other Romance Comics - always spanking potential here. I've searched several titles to the extent possible (usually only a few issues of a given title) without finding anything new (except the A Moon, A Girl, Romance one, which was already known). I tried to enlist the help of the foremost Romance Comic collector in America, but my email address on him turned out to be no longer current.
That's it for now. I hope you're all having a good summer, and don't hesitate to post your thoughts on this forum.
