Bounce Chix: Temple of Bounce *New 10/30/06

[MTJpub]

The Bounce Chix:

Hailey, Jane and Andi were just your normal, everyday, adorable college roommates until one fateful night, freshman year of college, when they were abducted by a desperately ticklish alien race in a last-ditch effort to battle the Evil Tickle Monsters from Outer Space. After saving the universe from certain doom (a really cool story, by the way) our three lovely protagonists were bestowed with Magical Alien Toe Rings, granting them unlimited technological powers.

There’s only one problem: They have no idea how they work.

So these three hotties now find themselves constantly Bouncing throughout the universe, engaging in zany escapade after zany escapade in alternate realities, alien worlds, cursed pyramids, haunted castles, and everywhere in-between. All the while still trying to pass Biology.

Will our daring heroines be able to overcome the challenges before them?

Can they maintain the precarious balance between good and evil?

And will they ever make it through junior year?

Welcome to a world where tickling is waiting around every corner. Welcome to a world of action, excitement, and eroticism.

Welcome to the Bounce Chix.

The Temple of Bounce:

It’s ancient curses and uncontrollable laughter when the Chix Bounce into a heart-pounding world of tickle traps, feathery mummies, naughty German interrogators and a lonely, imprisoned Egyptian princess.

Join the Chix on their first blockbuster comic adventure while they try to get the upper hand against a cast of gorgeous villains who will stop at nothing to tickle them silly.

Will Hailey, Jane and Andi make it through this dangerous maze of amorous tickle tormentors?

Or will they fall victim to the Curse of the Mummy Feather?

As the clothes come off, the laughter comes out in this non-stop tantalizing tale of titillating tickle-torture.

There's a word I'm looking for here... now what was it again? Oh yes, BRRRRIIILLIIIIAAAAAANNNNTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TickleFur]

Utter Genius!!

Temple of Bounce, is, without question, the best tickle comic to be published yet! And that's what it is: a TICKLE comic

The artwork is simply incredible, from Bandito's fantastic and detail-filled lineart to White Lotus' stunning colours and lighting

The story is fun and direct, the Chix themselves (Andi, Hailey and Jane) are gorgeous and endearing, and t he supporting cast, Teeka and the Sexy German babes, are also adorable and endearing.

And the tickle action IS FAN-TICKLE-TASTIC!!!

Page after page of gorgeous women being erotically tickled, and there is no question that they LOVE EVERY SECOND OF IT

This is what I (and I'm sure so many silent tickle-fetish fans out there as well) have been waiting for! I total must-buy!!

To not love the Bounce Chix is to prove you have no taste whatsoever 😉

 

[Rage]

Seriously this comic is untouchable. I don't think anything else is going to even come close to this level. You have to make more of these.!! By far the best tickling comic ever released.

 

[Dark Convoy]

Fantastic, absolutly fantastic

 

[Dave2112]

This was really, really good. The girls are cute, the action is plentiful, and the comic doesn't take itself too seriously. I am seriously looking forward to the continuing adventures of the Bounce Chix. It's been awhile since a comic floored me, and it was worth the wait.

 

[White Lotus]

Wow...thank you all for the great feedback! I am so excited that our hard work is being well received, and that tickle fans are enjoying every last inch of the Chix!

DEV: The Bounce Chix are shining even brighter after that wonderful compliment - thank you!

TickleFur: Ahhhhhh...stop it! You're making the Bounce Chix and I blush!

Rage: Words cannot express how incredibly awesome it is to receive that kind of feedback...wow! I am so tickled (hee hee!) that you loved the Bounce Chix - thank you!!!

Dark Convoy: Thank you - glad you liked the comic! 🙂

Dave2112: Coming from someone who has won three golden feather awards, I can't imagine a better compliment. So glad you enjoyed it - thank you so much for the fabulous feedback!

Thanks to all of you who have stopped in to check out the cover. We will be posting some individual pix on each of the Bounce Chix soon, so you get more of a taste of each of their cute and adorable characters!

 

[MTJpub]

Bandito & White Lotus,

Looks like you two have a hit on your hands 😀

Great job!

Your fans await more Bounce Chix adventures so get back to work

Happy belated Halloween

Hey gang!

Sorry for the late reply - it has been a week of insanity and craziness.

I have a request for all of you. To those of you wonderful people that have had a chance to read TOB - would you consider letting Lotus and I know what you liked, and what you thought you might like to see more of, or differently in future comics. I would love to hear specific feedback in the coming weeks, as we plan and script BC2.

I have lots and lots of people to thank, so I apologize if this gets a bit wordy!

I first want to thank Lotus. She has been the best colorist, proof reader, editor, creative sounding board, and all around awesome team mate I could possible imagine. Lotus - I luv ya!

Secondly, I want to thank Morandilas and MTJ. You have been so supportive, understanding, and just a joy to work with. I used to dream of working for MTJ with all of their amazing artists, and you welcomed me wih open arms. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thirdly, I want to thank all of you on the forums. I stopped doing art for a bit after college. Wasn't sure if it was something I was ever really going to do again. All of the feedback I have gotten on this forum has literally kept me going with the art. Thank you all SOOOOOOOOOOO much for your support!

Now to the speciifics ;P

DEV: Thanks man - that is so awesome. I am truly truly glad that you liked the Chix. You will be seeing a lot more of them!!!

Ticklefur: I have no words. You have been from my first post an unwavering and amazing supporter. Thank you for all of your support on this project. Trust me - you will be getting a sneak peek at future pages!

Rage: That is seriously one of the nicest comments that anyone has ever made on my/our artwork. EVER. I am moved to tears (and you thought Bandito's didn't cry!) Please accept my most humble and appreciative thanks for those kind words.

Dark Convoy: Cool! Thanks for the praise! What did you like the most, and what did you think could make the furute BC issues even better?

Dave2112: Wow.... I mean seriously. Wow. I don't even know what to say. As I have mentioned in other posts - I have always loved your work, and to have you say those things about the Bounce Chix is the greatest compliment you could give me. Thank you. Do you have any input on the next comic?

And a big thank you to everyone that came to check out the cover (and also to those that have checked out the DA pages!)

 

[Kunzite]

I just finished this, and I have to say I love the artwork! It's a fantastic style that's perfect for an adventure series. The perspectives are really well done, and the storytelling is great too. Overall, I have no end of nice things to say about it. Great work!

 

[Dave2112]

Bandito, I don't think you need any advice from me about the next comic, other than hurry the hell up! (Just kidding, of course.) You've got a brilliant imagination, great characters, a gifted colorist and just the right amount of off-the-wall humor to make this a successful series. If I did have any advice to give, it would be to not change a thing, other than the natural evolvement all artists find in themselves.

 

[TMF Jeff]

I also am a HUGE fan of this comic, it's without question one of the best I've ever read. I particularly liked the colors, which popped right off the page.

 

[Tomato_Dragon]

Great great job. Awesome story and art. Loved it. 😀

 

[White Lotus]

Morandilas: It has been such a pleasure working with you and having the honor of publishing our comic through MTJ, an incredibly respected publisher. I'd write more, but the whip's crackin' and I need to get back to coloring! Can't wait to work with you on the next episode of the Bounce Chix. Thanks again...

Kunzite: I'm so glad you loved Temple of Bounce! Thank you for the nice compliments; I hope you continue to like the Bounce Chix adventures. 😉

Dave2112: "gifted colorist" *blushes, fans herself, and chirps "woo-hoo" loudly!* You just made my day, Dave, thank you!

MTP Jeff: You are a God among men, Jeff. Not just for all of the hot tickle clips you've made throughout the years, not just for this amazing forum, not just for being a huge fan of the Bounce Chix and all of your kind words, but because your favorite thing was the coloring. *jabs Bandito with a finger and says - see, see?!? They like me too!* Seriously, can't thank you enough for your incredibly sweet words of support. Am so looking forward to getting this next issue of the Bounce Chix out! *whip cracks, Morandilas chases after, Lotus runs with Crayons and locks herself in her room.*

Tomato Dragon: I'm a big fan of yours, so thanks for the feedback and compliments. So nice to hear that a fabulous artist such as yourself is a Bounce Chix fan!

Thanks again to all of you for your kind words of support, we love all of our new fans and adore you greatly! We'll be posting more soon, so stay tuned!

 

[The Bandito]

Kunzite: Hey thanks! I am so glad you enjoyed the comic! Thanks also for the compliment about the perspectives - I always try to make the perspective and camera angle interesting in each panel - adds to the overfeel of the comic, IMHO 🙂

Dave: Thanks again man! You get a big Bounce Chix hug! And we will definitely hurry the hell up on BC2, LOL!

MTP Jeff: I am humbled and dazed by your review Jeff. I have been hoplessly in love with your clips for years, and of course, the TMF is amazing!!!! Thank you soooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for the kind words about Temple of Bounce. And thanks for the props to Lotus. She really does an amazing job with the colors! Without her the Bounce Chix would be boring as hell 😉 Thanks again - I don't even know what to say 😀

Tomato Dragon: Thanks so much TD! I need to echo Lotus and say that I am SUCH a fan of your work, and getting a compliment from an artist like yourself is a great honor. I hope you continue to like the Bounce Chix on their future adventures!

Thanks again to all of you. Another HUUUUUGE thanks to MTJ Publishing for their unwavering support. And another huge thank you to all of you and all of your feedback.

Please keep the feedback rolling in. We are going to start BC2 in the coming weeks, and I would love to know what worked the best with TOB, and what you want to see more of in BC2!

Keep in touch,

Bandito

Desperately late to the party, I know... but I've just recently gotten my hungry hooks into "Temple of Bounce", and what a sweet meal it proved to be! More tickle carnival than tickle story, with giddy fun-house thrills and actual rides... a spirit of unrestrained merriment drives it uncompromisingly (much as it has Deeto's TIS), eschewing angsty musings or concerns about any actual threat! With forward momentum so unstoppable that characters and situations arrive dreamlike and serendipitously, without need for lengthy setup explanation, one is bowled right along with its buxom, unflappable heroines into a fantasy of guilt-free sensation... a Disneyland for the fetish set (the Naughtiest Place on Earth!)

The Indiana Jones inspiration is unmistakable... jungle setting, ruins, traps, Nazis, the active dead (along with Andi's archetypical cover pose, in case anyone is still doubtful), mingled with a dash of Danger Girl's classic troika of winsome beauties (something irresistible about a trio of heroines, isn't there! Good things come in threes... a range from which to select your favorite flavor! Provides nice cross-cutting opportunities once the gals become separated, too!) Such shorthand allows the action to start instantly, without wasteful preamble; a distinct plus in a tickle comic, where page-space is at a premium. Accouterments such as "feather darts" and spiked walls that emit teasing skeletal fingers turn the Lucas/Spielberg formula nicely on its ear... one could easily envision these features in the films, had the boys been a bit more adventurous! Andi's revisit of the crazed "Temple of Doom" mine-cart chase offers extracurricular excitement... like watching a chimp at the wheel of a bus, it's impossible to know where the action is heading (and with how much collateral dust and debris!) As the babes bounce ceaselessly within the borders of their unchosen destination, the range of lateral movement becomes truly dizzying!

Fetish content is generous and arrives rapidly enough to satisfy any fan! The three-pose jig each girl dances (Hailey on page 5; Jane on page 6; and Andi on page 10.... twice!) trebles the tickling's intensity and also allows for the illusion of cinematic movement. With focus primarily on feet and midsections, the action distinguishes itself from the bluer, driven-to-orgasm atmosphere of TIS. This suits the pop culture tone of "Temple"... despite bondage and bared breasts, one could easily rate this NC-17 rather than X. The pyramid queen is a winsome foil for Andi... rather endearing, the way she forlornly pines to join in (page 7) like a house-bound youngster envious of the fun her fellows are having outdoors! One can both sadistically relish the comeuppance she finally earns and sympathize as her enjoyable punishment is curtailed!

Artwork (no surprise!) shines on every level! Not a scrap of wasted space... panels are chock full, but never chaotic. A certain stately symmetry suggests itself even in the midst of violent engagements (pages 2 and 10 are prime examples), while extreme foreground and background detail provide welcome depth. The action assumes a cartoony jollity... the beginning of Andi's mine-cart tour, page 4 last panel, ideally exemplifies this daffy mood (nutzo twisting track along which the cart bounces merrily!) Faces are ever expressive... wide-eyed Hailey (page 3, panel 2), the aforementioned pining Queen (page 2, first panel) and the nonplussed Queen (page 12, panels 2 and 3) are among my favorites! White Lotus's contribution is, of course, indispensable. Colors are vibrant, yet touched with the mustiness eloquent of long-past ages. A delicately dusky nighttime tableau on page 3 impresses with its gentle moodiness! Daringly graded accents startle whenever the wicked toe-rings wink from dormancy... their air-brushed brilliance on page 11 the non-verbal cue to the story's climactic twist! Textures are gossamer, brassy or rough-hewn as needed... WL's predilection for pink-to-scarlet tinting turns plumage into sanguine conduit connecting fetish predator to prey! Skin-tones are, of course, eminently touchable... the key to success in any attempt at graphic ardor!

I can't think of more to say except jolly well done, with the emphasis on "jolly"! Bandito and White Lotus have made, and continue to make, their mark alongside the classic madcaps from all eras and every medium of expression... the Marx Brothers would be ideal dates for the Bounce Chix! One shudders (with delight!) to ponder the progeny they'll inspire!

Thank you so very much my very good friend. I know you and I have shared words via email as well, but I wanted to publicly express my thanks and add a few comments to the public record. XD

And I know I've said this a bajillion times, but your feedback really does mean such a great deal to me. Your comments truly make me want to do more work for this community.

The Indiana Jones films have always been among my very favorite! But it's the Danger Girl references that I am the most happy you picked up on. J Scott Campbell is one of my favorite artists, and I consider Danger Girl his Magnum Opus! Not only did the Danger Girls help inspire Temple of Bounce, but they had a lot to do with inspiring the Bounce Chix from step one.

I love the way in which that comic series mocked the action genre while embracing it completely, at the same time. I wanted to have an aspect of that with the Chix. Silly enough to laugh at itself, but still action packed, and erotic.

Hee hee...so glad you enjoyed Teeka as a funny character and a foil for Andi. I thought that instead of the stereotypical sadistic bitch, that I might have the bag gal be more of a lonely, adorable (albeit mischievous hottie).

Also so glad you enjoyed the tickle action. There's always that difficult challenge of including enough story, and also including enough tickling. I think a great deal of achieving that balance is by having the story truly revolve around the tickling, instead of the other way around.

Thanks so much for the kind words for Lotus. Although this community is always very generous, remembering her contributions, it still makes her feel so much more accepted to hear praise like this for her sensational work.

Thanks also for the kind words about the artwork. Looking back on Temple, all I see are the mistakes I made, and how I would do it differently now - so it is so wonderful to hear that from a reader's perspective, the artwork still gets the story across.

I can't think of more to say except jolly well done, with the emphasis on "jolly"! Bandito and White Lotus have made, and continue to make, their mark alongside the classic madcaps from all eras and every medium of expression... the Marx Brothers would be ideal dates for the Bounce Chix! One shudders (with delight!) to ponder the progeny they'll inspire!

I can't think of anymore to say either, my friend.

Other than thank you so very much for everything that you do.

And thank you so much for taking all the time to write such a thoughtful, helpful, and amazing review.

Hopefully there will be a new Chix adventure Bouncing into MTJ in the next couple months.
