The distress signal is live. Gary thinks that means rescue is on the way…
Kelly is painted. Summoned. Told to drink and dance. She tells herself it is only a ritual. Only something to keep the tribe happy while they wait for rescue.
But the island has already tasted her. And tonight it wants more.
A private hut. A public circle. A welcome that does not feel like a welcome. By morning she will remember everything, and the woman who stepped into the firelight will not be the same one who walks out of it.
Part 3 is where survival stops being the only thing she wants.
After four long years of campaigning, negotiating, threatening industrial action and repeatedly explaining to Gonzo that I was clearly the most popular character, I have excellent news.
VENUS RISING IS BACK!… You’re welcome.
Apparently, Gonzo finally realized that the puny humans of Earth deserve to hear more about the heroic intergalactic adventures of 4Q2… and those three bimbos who inexplicably keep following me around.
For those unfamiliar with my supporting cast:
Bella Fox – Trainee diplomat. Dangerously optimistic. Once traded the mining rights to an entire planet for a bag of magic beans.
Tanya Gray – Technician. Drinks too much, swears too much and keeps threatening to throw me out of airlocks.
Xena – Weapons specialist. Owns enough firepower to invade a small country and has attempted to shoot me on several occasions.
The problem with returning after four years is that some of you may have forgotten what happened.
Some of you may never have read Venus Rising at all.
And some of you are humans, so your limited organic memory cannot reasonably be expected to retain important information for that long.
Fortunately, I have solved this problem.
Attached to the linked posts on Patreon and Subscribestar you’ll find:
VENUS RISING – BOOK ONE VENUS RISING – BOOK TWO VENUS RISING – BOOK THREE
They’re all right here. No digging through four years of posts. No searching through the ancient forgotten vaults of the site. No excuses.
And because even Gonzo occasionally has a good idea, all three books are available on ALL TIERS as will all future updates for Venus Rising!
Your homework between now and Saturday is simple: Read Books 1, 2 and 3. Or reread them if you were here the first time around.
Because on SATURDAY, after four years away, Venus Rising continues from exactly where we left off… Book Four: Fear and Loathing in New Vegas
Bella, Tanya and Xena have just escaped Mad Max’s World. We’re heading for New Vegas. We need money. There is absolutely no conceivable way this could go wrong.
VENUS RISING RETURNS THIS SATURDAY
4Q2 Hero. Genius. Robot. (Definitely the main character)
This update’s a bit different. Drop a comment or a message and tell me what you think.
A lot of you liked the longer stories at the end of the month, but the AI artwork didn’t land. That’s fair. It was a test, not a new house style. Feedback received.
So we’re trying something new. Or technically… something old with a new twist.
About five years ago I wrote and drew a Blackmaled Singles episode called Jenni’s Story. People liked it, but the format back then was basically two lines of dialogue under each image. I’ve taken that same story and written it out as a long-form piece, and I’m using the original artwork instead of the AI stuff.
Have a read of this update of a classic. If it works, we can look at doing the same with some of the others. Maybe Blackmaled: Kirsty, or Fantasyland: Kendra. I always thought those were solid. Looking back now, I’d probably change a few things.
Blackmaled: Jenni, the extended version, is a 55-page story with 52 images from the original comic.
THIS IS AVAILABLE ON ALL TIERS So, I had an idea… Rather than waiting an entire month before checking back in with the characters from Survivor and Vacation, why not drop a mini comic between the main releases?
And so, here we are!
These mini comics are little side stories that fit between the main chapters. They don’t have any major effect on the overall storyline, so if you happen to miss one, don’t panic… the world will keep spinning and you will still know what’s what’s going on in Part 3.
It also means those of you on the other tiers get a little peek at what’s currently happening over at Gonzo Studios and Sexy3DComics.
So enjoy this little extra visit with the cast of Blackmailed: Survivor.
Blackmailed: Survivor will return with Part 3 on the Sexy3DComics tiers in a couple of weeks.
I will also be doing All Tiers Mini Comic for Fantasyland Vacation Time.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) sees the release of the first of our new Mini Comics for the main storylines.
These are shorter comics that fit alongside the main stories, but if you miss one, don’t panic—the world will continue spinning.
It means we don’t have to wait an entire month to check back in with our favourite characters, while also giving everyone a chance to peek at what’s happening over on the other tiers.
Venus Rising Returns!
I was sitting in the studio trying to decide what to put into the first release slot of October.
Rather than throwing together a sex scene and desperately wrapping a plot around it, I thought…
Why not bring back an actual monthly series?
And then I remembered Venus Rising.
Venus Rising was a series I started several years ago, pulling inspiration from things like Borderlands, Firefly, Barbarella and all those wonderfully terrible B-movie sci-fi adventures.
It follows cute-but-incredibly-naive trainee diplomat Bella Fox, renegade technician Tanya Gray, weapons specialist Xena, and their completely unhinged droid 4Q2 as they embark on a series of increasingly ridiculous fetch quests to save Earth.
The problem?
Princess Eve of the Draconian Empire.
Daddy gave her a heavy destroyer for her birthday, and she’s decided to take it on an intergalactic social-media-fuelled Planetary Destruction Tour.
Earth is on the itinerary.
Unfortunately, Venus Rising disappeared several years ago because there was a pandemic, I was moving countries, and frankly the real world was becoming so fucking ridiculous I half expected us to start eating tasty brains.
But rather than reinventing the wheel…
Venus Rising is coming back.
And we’re picking up exactly where we left off.
The crew have just escaped Mad Max’s World and are heading for New Vegas.
What could possibly go wrong?
So, if you’ve never read Venus Rising—or it’s been so long you’ve forgotten what the hell happened—you’ve got a couple of weeks of homework:
We catch up with Kendra, Colin, Jade and Mike over breakfast following their rather intense night at a very kinky club.
With Episode 3, we’re splitting up the group.
Kendra and Jade are heading off on a little side quest into one of the seedier parts of the Azure Islands, hoping to get their hands on a much needed package.
Meanwhile, back on the tourist side of the island, Colin and Mike decide to explore a rather special kind of tourist attraction – one that’s going to leave Colin seeing stars.
But while everyone else is enjoying their vacation, Drax is quietly putting his own plans into motion… And he has his eyes firmly set on Kendra.
Welcome to Fantasyland Vacation: Episode 3!
Sidenote: You will not need to wait a month to check in on Kendra and her friends as I am now doing ‘Mini Comics’, these will be released on Wednesdays, in between the monthly releases. The mini comics will be available on all tiers, if you think you may have missed something just check out the Fantasyland: Vacation Time collection folder where you will be find everything released so far.
The yacht is at the bottom of the sea. And the island has them now….
Gary still talks like a man who thinks he owns the world. But Kelly has started to notice how little that voice carries in this strange place. There are rules she doesn’t understand yet, a heat she can’t blame on the weather., and a forgotten burning desire she keeps tasting in the wind…
Blackmaled: Survivor is just over 100 pages and available on the Sexy3DComics and Premium tiers.
Before we jump into this weekends release on Sexy3DComics tier – Blackmaled: Survivor Pt2, I thought I would just touch base on a few things, update you and just say hi.
Sexy3dComics.com You probably knew this existed as the links are now in the comics, this is not replacing Patreon or Subscribestar but is more of a ‘landing / promo page’. Basically there are some things I can’t put in the public area of the members sites due to guidelines (which I have no issue with, the rules are there for a good reason). But I wanted a place that I can do some real promo, share some free stuff from time to time and act as a ‘fall back’ so you know where to go if something were to ever happen to any of the members sites.
Extra releases I am kicking around a new idea that I’m going to give it a try this month, lets see how it goes. Right now we have Blackmaled: Survivor on Sexy3DComics and Fantasyland: Vacation Time over on Gonzo Studios. What I am going to do is create a mini episode (maybe 10-12 pages) that fits between Survivor Parts 2 and 3 and Vacation Time Parts 3 and Parts 4. These mini episode will be available on all tiers and are a way to touch base with the characters without needing to wait a full month. These will be in addition to the normal ‘all tiers releases’ and will not appear on the schedule.
Character pages Somebody asked for this… and… I think it’s a pretty good idea. On the larger comics that have multiple characters – for example ‘Vacation Time’ I shall put a page at the start with the main characters, just in case somebody new to the series doesn’t know the difference between Colin /Mike or Kendra /Jade. I’m going to skip it on Survivor Pt2 as there are currently only two characters and I am sure you can all tell the difference between Kelly and Gary. New main characters shall be added to the page only after they have appeared in the story.
‘Skip Intro’ button. All main series on streaming have then, and now Sexy3DComics does . There will now be a button on the second page that skips you right passed the schedule, character pages and random character pages – right to the start of the episode.
Illustrated stories There have been a couple posted in the last few months, the Holiday Fling, The one in the nightclub bathroom, Elf in an Orc Bar… The general feedback on this has been pretty positive, as people seem to like the mix of a more in depth story and artwork… If its something you want to see more of, or alternatively if it’s not your thing, that’s ok too – let me know.
I think that more of less wraps up this update… Next up (in about 10 minutes on Sexy3DComics tier… we rejoin Kelly and Gary as they find out the island they were shipwrecked on is not as empty as they expected.)
We start the month with a Mischievous story, this one is a little shorter than normal as there are two heavy weight stories landing this month with on the 13th Blackmaled Survivor Pt2 on Sexy3DComics and on the 20th Fantasyland: Vacation Time Pt3 on Gonzo Studios both arriving with more than 100 pages each. (I needed to sleep at some point 😀 )
