Deemon: I think Dusty definitely deserves some light-hearted revenge on Pinkerton the Space Cop. But knowing Dusty a little tickling wouldn't be enough. She'd need to make it reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally evil. Something that compromised Pinkerton in a public venue...maybe as part of performing her job. Hmmm.....so many options. But now that Pinky knows what truly drives Dusty insane...our purple hotty better make sure she never ends up tied up around the wicked Cop again.
Rage: Dude, no worries - I'm late to my OWN party this week. LOL. And I can't tell you how much I appreciate your kind words! As for the exposition and not wasting space, I really appreciate the generous observation. Tickling comics can be a kinda tough thing to create in the sense that you want to create some sort of narrative, scene, theme, ambiance, character, etc to give the comic substance and to make the tickling even more exciting. But the worst thing you can do is create some big tickle comic with like only a handful of tickling pages. It's what we're here for. So that balance is something we're all kind of constantly looking for. Me, MTJ in general, Agencies, Paw Feather, Black Feather, etc etc etc. We're all trying to find that magic way to include exposition and story and still include a ton of hawt tickles. And frankly I really appreciate you commenting on it. Thanks man. As for the body regions ie, upper body...feet, etc. It's funny that I don't even think about it that much. I'm not really spot focused (although totally understand how everyone has their favorite). I just like good tickling, where ever it might take place. And it's awesome to know that even though you really dig seeing feet get tickled that I can win you over a bit, regardless of where the gals are being tickled. Its a huge compliment - so thank you...hugely! And as for buying a comic of mine just based on faith that it's a good product, I can imagine no greater compliment. Thank you very very much, good buddy.
Kunzite: Thanks so much, my good friend. Honestly I love your work for the exact same reasons. Holding in the laughter...those classic tales of yours of the Teacher trying not to laugh as she somehow being tickled in front of the class...an absolute INSPIRATION to me! I love your curvy characters, your ability to make the tickling scenes seem "real" and incredibly hot. And how you make this genre come to life for me. When are we going to see something new from you?? So...the fact that my work does the same thing for you makes me very happy. Thanks for that and for the kind words.
Lotus: Well I definitely know how I'm going to tickle you next time. XD LMAO. Thanks for all your help on this!!!
Button: Well thank you again, buddy. It's muchly appreciated. And I just actually wrote some button tickling in the most recent script I'm working on...literally just for you, and the belly button fans. But they should write you a personal thank you letter - because it's largely your vocal support that continues to make button tickles happen in this community as often as they do.
tkmstr: The "Sexiest tickle comic you've ever seen"????? Geez. Pretty sure we don't deserve that one with all the amazing publications out there, but thank you tremendously for the kind words. We definitely wanted to make Embassy Heist every bit as naughty and erotic as the original TIS series. Glad it pushed the right buttons, my friend.
TickleFur: Well, as an integral part of the original TIS series I'm thrilled to hear that the latest comic exceeded your expectations. It's tough following Scavenger for the 3rd TIS comic. HIs stuff was truly epic. Lotus and I wanted to create something really sexy, naughty, and erotic focused on one major character: Dusty. And I think the continuing TIS series will be a little more of THAT flavor. Comics focused on one or two characters and really trying to go after as erotic and fun a tickling vibe as we can create. As always I never deserve the level of praise you send my way...I'm by no means the top of anything...just a regular little bandito who is thrilled that you and some other folks enjoy these comics and novels. Thank you so much! Any specific characters you might like to see tickled from the TIS series in future episodes since you know them all so well?
Xod: Thank you, good buddy. I really appreciate the generous comment.
Colin: Hey thanks, my brother from another mother!!! I'm also (obviously) a huge fan of "trying to hold in the laughter" scenes. My biggest challenge in creating them is I want to accomplish 2 things: 1.) an impossibly ticklish character for whom the slightest tickle is impossible to contain, and 2.) someone trying to contain their laughter. Although not mutually exclusive, I feel like the scene is always too short because I can only let the character hold out for a panel or two before the succumb. In EMBASSY HEIST I wanted to create a scenario where we could all have our cake and eat it too, as it were. XD Thanks again, amigo!!!
Darkharp: You're wonderful, DH. Thank you. Although I have to agree with you on something important. You mentioned EH was "dripping with sex appeal on every panel, as only Bandito can do."
Please let me present my exhibit a:
http://mtjpub.com/mtj07_iteminfo.php?item_id=324 <---- Annie 5 is so dripping, exploding, and erupting with sex appeal that I'd be completely lying if I didn't admit that it totally inspired me to take Dusty's tickling up a notch.
Your work is unbelievably talented and always at the very height of eroticism. So thanks especially for the generous praise. And thanks also for mentioning the robot's banter. Silly, I know...but I thought it was kind of a silly touch to the comic. In fact...we might be seeing more of that little floating robot. His name is Manseed. Ask MTJ Jim for the back story on that one if you talk to him soon. LMAO.
AE: Thanks for the very kind observation, buddy. It is a little crazy looking back. I think it is for most artists...but yeah...wow there's been a change. Want to see an insane comparison? Look at the original TIS thread and compare the line work with EMBASSY HEIST. YIKE!!! What a difference.
DEV: You've always been such a fantastic supporter, buddy - and I really appreciate it. I remember all the fun we had back when I was posting the original TIS pages, and the awesome story you wrote! Good stuff. Thank you for the kind words, the great support, and the years of fun. I hope we can do it for decades more!
Thanks you all very very very much for all the support on EH.
Obviously I need to come out with another TIS comic very soon - so I'll see what I can do about that.
I'm also posting up the bio here for Pinkerton Poe. For those of you that haven't read EH yet...Pinkerton is the main antagonist, and naughty tickling cop. For those of you that have read EH, or members of the super awesome amazing human club, you've already seen this bio at the end of the 16 page comic. ;-)
Please let us know what you think of Pinky. Should we keep her? Tickle her? Let her tickle someone else in the TIS universe? And the next TIS adventure...who would you guys like to see tickled next????
Because we don take such things seriously. In fact they're the only things we take seriously. In life.
Talk soon,
Deet
Fantastic work as always, don't ever change!
