JEMINI’S COPYCAT COUNTERATTACK pg24
We’ve talked before about the first of the extra stories in Scapula: Doubly Dark & Deadly!, starring Nazz and the Halloween Gang, but now it’s time to take a look at the final story in the book, titled ‘Dominion’.
Those of you who backed the Kickstarter or bought and read the book already know the gist (I’m repeating it now to convince you hold-outs to grab it already!):
‘The mind of a madman is a bad place to be, especially if he desires you…so what happens to the people who are locked away in Scapula’s subconscious? Can five unusual women break free from the dark depths, and are they willing to betray one another to escape?’
The story features the return of a number of Scapula‘s female cast, including Bone China, Moonie Meadows, and Deviant Jemini, along with the former star of Dada Hyena (and current star of my Patreon-only adult comics), Christie McGoff. There’s also a new character trapped amongst them, along with Scapula’s very worst enemy…but you’ll have to read it for yourself!
So, what would have happened if Dio had asked, “Where do you go to the head?” instead of using the word “potty”?
Or, maybe they should have offered to flip a coin? “Heads. You lose.”
Did Jemini get this monster at the Head Shop? (yeah, showing my age there)
I guess Psy-Jemini will be a Jerry Garcia fan now, and join ranks of other Dead-Heads.
Did we seriously wait all week just for a bunch of stupid Head puns?
I think I had made a promise to avoid extremely stupid puns, lest they come back and haunt me (hey, readers still point out ‘Edgar Allan Po-Po’ on occasion).
Rest assured, if I feel like making any more, I’ll be sure to give you all a heads-up.
….damn it.
This was a spectacular page, in that, I really don’t know whom I feel more pity for.
After all, the poor monster was just doing what she was created for. Yeah, she got outta line, a bit, but, such is the way with monster making.
Even Dio isn’t at fault – It would seem being a bit naive, sugar’d up and unintentionally annoying is just Their nature.
(Would Dio drive Dio to murder Dio if two of them were stuck in an elevator together for more than 10 minutes?)
The $64,000 Question is: Are those gunshots gonna be effective, or simply piss off the multi-headed beastie?!
Thankya for asking! Those gunshots seem to be doing some major damage, even if they aren’t cutting clear through the head or blowing up the skull like a pumpkin. Either way I doubt Psy-Jemini is enjoying it much.
…incidentally, it’s great to hear sympathy for the monster. Exactly how much sentience the giant clone has is hard to say, but hey, she couldn’t be any more malicious than the other Jeminis (just more powerful).
As for Dio…those little brats will get what’s comin’ to ’em!
I’d say I feel sorry for the beastie here, BUT, unlike say…. the creature from 20 million miles to earth, she’s probably fully aware of her situation and likely just being malicious and power-hungry and bullying, like most Jemini’s. The fact she didn’t knock it off after the first few clones proves she’s just being a jerk… even animals know to give up on something that isn’t working pretty quickly! And hey, feel free to copypasta my comment about ‘why the big monster is totally going to die from so many bullets to the skull’ hereabouts if you like.
I think I must have said this before, but “20 Million Miles to Earth” is basically a feature-length display of torturing an animal to death. Granted the Ymir is a fictional animal but it goes through so much hell from such awful people (including Pepe…GO TO HELL, PEPE!) that it’s a bit difficult for me to enjoy. It gets worse when the Ymir starts torturing other animals himself (the dog and the elephant, although I think they may have started the fights) and it all becomes a vicious cycle.
As for Psy-Jemini, maybe she just enjoys torturing smaller creatures in the same manner as a housecat does. Cats are evil little stinkers who have no qualms about making their prey suffer long past the necessary point of submission.
Moral: natural selection is a bitch.
