Today’s Last Kiss uses Steve Lightly cover art from Paul Kupperberg’s Secret Romances. My thanks to Paul for use of the art from his romance anthology. Interested in the book? Check out the Kickstarter campaign which continues through April 17.
Transcript:
SCENE: Woman pulling back a curtain showing a wild, otherworldly scene featuring outer space, a rocket ship, a gaping, sharp-toothed orifice and more as a many-tentacled creature wraps itself around her.
WOMAN: This art has nothing to do with…sex! So if you see any phallic symbols…or disturbing orifices…you’re either a disgusting pervert…or a Last Kiss comics fan!

Well, this is unusual—a Last Kiss using new art. How new? So new that it’s part of a current Kickstarter project.
Let me be clear, I have no financial stake in Paul Kupperberg’s Secret Romances anthology. All the stories were written by Paul. Sure, I wrote the book’s introduction. But I get paid the same amount (nothing!) whether the book gets published or not.
But I really like the project and in addition to Paul’s great stories, it features some of my favorite artists—including my pal Joe Staton. Joe and I have been talking about working together for years, but somehow it never happened—’til now.
This was great fun for me. And it’s not over. I’ve re-dialogued some additional art from other stories in the book (by other great artists.) And between now and when the Kickstarter ends, they’ll be running here.

VOICE OVER BY WOMAN FROM OFF-PANEL: The only thing I like better than a Tom boy…
SCENE, PANEL 2: is a peeping Tom boy!
