Oh my God! Lorraine’s gone blonde! I would suspect not for long… we’ll see. Hang on to your ass, Mr. Bergstrom, there is nothing worse than a woman scorned…
Enjoyed this one too much as I went nuts fixing this and that and in general spent too much time in the “sketch” mode. Getting the curves right on the women folk is not as easy as one might think. Guys are easy, women are hard… hey, that’s true in life in general! We comic artists should write books…
“Blonde On Blonde” is an album from 1966 by Bob Dylan. It is regarded as one of the more influential albums in rock and roll as it solidified Dylan’s transition from acoustic folk singer to an “electric” sound. Many hard core fans of Dylan’s folk music thought he’d sold out, but the album went to No. 1 and double platinum status despite a few pissed off coffee house folk music fans. The album was also rare for the times as well as it was a double vinyl release. Not many musicians or bands rank a double album as it was expensive to press, package and thus puts off many potential buyers.
The single, “Rainy Day Women No. 12 & 35” (Best known for the chorus “…everybody must get stoned!”) reached number 2 on the US charts despite being banned by many stations for “drug references” ala the chorus. Apparently Dylan recorded the song while stoned, and listening to Dylan laugh at the other musicians, you get the idea that’s true.
I used the album title as a slight reference to Lorraine now being blonde. Oh, Robyn’s t-shirt is a little nod to the webcomic “Imy” where the lead character sports a black t-shirt with “rock” on it. Robyn’s take on it is more 70s. Oh, the creator of “Imy”, Irma, may very well be sharing a table with me at a show in Sweden next April. Never invite me over, I will more than likely show up. Especially if there’s food involved.

wow, must have been one helluva party!
some nice curves youve done there dude 😉
Now I’m wondering what Lorraine would look like as a redhead.
Kickass!! And remember, if you come, you get your own table, ’cause it’s free! But it’ll be next to mine! 😉 God that would be so cool!
Pretty sure you’re the first person I’ve ever known to say that drawing guys is easier than girls. That’s kinda fascinating. Why do you suppose?
Love the “I heard a rule breaking” line. That was great!
Drawing chicks is tough. I always have trouble figuring out how big to draw the knockers without looking too suggestive – since there’s not much to suggest in my strip! Well done, man.
That shirt looks damn good on her! Great strip!
Can I say you definitely “nailed” the women in this update? Or would that be taken the wrong way? Why do I even care? LOL
Wish I could’ve been a fly on the wall at that party. You’ve gotta do a Director’s Cut Behind-The-Scenes Expose Edition. 🙂
You want to be a fly?! You are talking about a pre HIV swingers party in California with all the gorgeous babes, and you want to be a FLY! Now that is weird. You been reading Kafka again?
*calls cops again*
hello? the illinois idea bandit is on the loose again and he’s stolen another idea. better get the tasers and the swat team this time.
😉
–dee!
Curves look good to me Byron 🙂
Nice work. Lovin’ it.
For someone who’s never been to a lifestyle party you hit the details spot on.
Sorry to bump this comic but I just stumbled upon your page. Love the Strip. And coming from someone who’s been in the lifestyle for a few years you portrayed us quite well. Soft, Full, rules, everything. Great Job!
Keep up the Awesome Work
LOL! Figured you did plenty of research.
We’ll definitely be sticking around and following the adventures. Already passed this link on to a bunch of friends both lifestyle and no.
Keep’em Coming
Bleach blond Lorraine looks like Kelly Bundy even as bright and over sexed as she is but my role model for cool mini dresses and high heels are cool. Looks like fantasy island remember the twin engine seaplane and the little guy saying “Boss the plane the plane something tells me Lorraine should board it fast.
