Rasputin Catamite

Before I get to the meat of this post, I just had to emit a sardonic giggle at a recent Savage Love column.  Dan Savage advised a sexually confused teenager to beware of a creepy closet-case uncle, or face the possibility of getting gross uncle tongue stuffed into his mouth.  It’s so weird to me whenever life seems to imitate my art.  Granted in my story, Lucky isn’t Camello’s uncle, but he is a cousin-in-law.  *SHUDDER* I thought I’d share.

Zoya, Dima and Sasha are returning to Rasputin Catamite after a rather long cartoon vacation.  All of the hair, rock, intoxication, indiscriminate debauchery and fangy menace that old school Raspy fans love will be amplified for the ultimate bitch slap against good taste.  Comrade Lechy will be unmasked.  Fights will break out.  Father Igor shall return from his Cuban vacation.  Cleavage will bounce.   All of this and Boris Yeltsin will assault your mind in a brand new storyline coming this March.

The adventures of Lucky and Camello will gradually move on to more cerebral pursuits and their new website.  You need to be over 18, even though the free section site is actually rated Mature Audience (Web-MA), just like this one.  The member’s section however, is rated Adults Only (Web-AO,) because of the uncensored version of Bahktale Vasquez 1986 and the Upir’s Mark gang being even more skanky than usual.

If some of the latest and upcoming episodes aren’t fully shaded, it’s because my schedule has been wicked. This will be fixed in the print version, I promise. Two upcoming episodes are purposely left as preliminary sketches. You’ll see why very soon.

Two days until the submission deadline for the featured back cover comic/short story/pin-up on the Bahktale Vasquez #2 mini-comic. If you are not familiar with the storyline, here is the online version of both books http://rasputincatamite.com/archives/category/comic/bahktale-vasquez

The print edition of Bahktale Vasquez #2 is coming this February.  I’m not saying much, but I am sharing the cover art.  Is it a spoiler?  Is it destiny? Is it a mindfuck?  Tune into Rasputin Catamite every Monday, Wednesday and Friday to find out!

That actually has some basis in reality.  In the late 80’s and up to the early 90’s, when I was still LDS, I remember not being able to perform baptisms for the dead, whenever I had my period.  When I asked whether I could use a tampon, I was told that it was not acceptable.  Either a period, or the act of wearing tampons somehow interfered with a woman ability to be pure enough for the proxy baptism, or something absurd like that.  I am not entirely certain.  Thankfully, for all of you Mormon ladies, that silly policy was changed.

The whole idea of tampons and menses being impure seems so bizarre.  Periods are natural and rather fascinating mechanism for the female body to cleanse itself.  Also, It’s not like a tampon is a miniature sex toy.  On the contrary, it’s like an anti-sex-toy.  Un-lubricated, compressed cotton with a grossly unsanitary string attached to it, just doesn’t conjure up any lustful images for me.  Yet, in some cultures and religions, folks with little understanding of how hymens work (like Lucky,) seem to believe that wearing a tampon has the potential of jeopardizing a girl’s virginity.

I just thought I’d share.
