Y ou did it! Give yourself a pat on the back for having made it to the end. You now stand at the threshold beyond which others feared to tread…the ‘explosive’ ending of Time Fucker.
It’s true. I’ve asked friends and collaborators about this and some admitted they couldn’t take it. Some couldn’t even make it past the first page! They know who they are and they are of no concern to us.
Ours is the burden of the iron stomached! We are the resolute who stare steely-eyed in the face of good taste and propriety and defy social mores with a bellowing roar of, “True art exists outside MORALITY!”
To recap last week’s update:
Salvatore Ghesboro’s chrono-campaign to Time Fuck his half brother Dick has careened all the way back to mankind’s origins. Upon returning to present day Hoboken, Sal may have Time Fucked humanity itself! He quickly escapes the clutches of the giant hamsters and returns to the night before Dick was conceived. There, Sal completes his mission and Time Fucks Dick out of existence. Upon his return to present day Hoboken, Sal finds he is married to his childhood love, Sally Lever! At last he can finally have that kiss he’s always waited for, right!? Wrong…

Thanks for your readership and thanks for helping spread the word. While I’m at it I’d like to also thank Dean Haspiel for his adept editorial suggestions. This story, such as it is, is so much better thanks to Dean’s input.
great work, joe! i had no problem with the excessively offensive content. the look of the strip has a really classic feel, like old mad magazine, and the content seems like a fitting contemporary update to that sensibility. looking forward to more time fucker in the future, or maybe even the past! i wanna see that guy fuck a dinosaur!
Thanks for this comment, Ryan. Sex with a dinosaur, hmm? Interesting. Cheers, Ryan!
Bravo!
Thanks, Dean!
Joe, you’ve made something really beautiful, a very sensitive analysis of how the cycle of abuse is perpetuated. I think Time Fucker: I’m Taking This Laying Down will be held up as an example of how fiction comics can be used as a teaching tool at home, in schools, and in therapy as well.
Well done!
I mean absolutely no disrespect when I say this, “How high were you when you wrote this comment, Jason?”
I’m thrilled to have your support on this project. It means a great deal to me. You are the perverted yoda to my pubescent Skywalker (wow, has a better sentence ever been crafted!?) Thanks, Jason.
