Erich Von Gotha

The third volume in the Twenty series. A strange series. Set in the future, where apparently all sexually transmitted diseases have been wiped out. Women dress in revealing clothing. Like being seen and used. etc.

Well, in this specific volume . . um . . stuff happens. heh. Lots of stuff. Just not sure how to mention the plot. It was all over the place. I mean, the first volume involved Twenty going to a special school, and coming into money, and being a murder target (some of this might have popped up on the second book). Becoming a stripper, or whatever the equivalent is in this anything goes universe. Gets video taped by her, whatever that guy was, I forget now. Becomes, through that, a porn star.

hmms. This one includes seeing her friend murdered in front of her. Wandering in skimpy clothing. Looking for work as a stripper. Going to orgy parties, some of which involve women inside of boxes. Oh, right, and Twenty reads some of Gotha's other work. Super meta, eh? The Troubles of Janice series, to be specific. The one about the woman back in, um, the 17th century? Who ends up a slave to a lord or something. Then, because of that, Twenty is hired to portray Janice in a film. So that happened. The author of that series, oddly enough the same guy who wrote this book here, is the one who set it up for Twenty to be the actress. As I said. Meta.

Weird and wacky stuff.

Oh my. That was scary. I was bouncing around looking at things and thought I'd lost my review. It was just in a different tab. mmphs.

There's a fourth volume but I do not have access to it.… (mais)

Another of Von Gotha's superbly illustrated stories of sexual excess, bondage, beating, massive todgers, gallons of sperm and a virginal, but eventually willing recipient of it all. In this instance it's Sophie, shy, introverted and a red-head, which she is teased about it from the moment she walks through the school gates. Her initiation into a cult of sexually predatory 'School Governors' is pure gratuitous sexploitation and the story plays on the supposed sexuality inherent in Ginger (red) haired women feeding the concept unashamedly.

But....having said that and personally, being involved with a almost insatiable redhead myself, I quite appreciated some of the scenarios in this publication.… (mais)

Full-Colored adult graphic novel.

Strange novel with no words, just pictures until the very end. There are two stories. The first story involves a woman back in colonial times who is found on the side of the road nearly nude, attacked by passers by (or she is their slave), freed/captured by indians, the woman escapes the indians and is recaptured by the white fellows . . . During this time the woman dreams of another existence, this one set in the modern world. The second story involves a woman in the "modern" time period who unexpectedly finds herself a sex slave. Both women dream of each other, it would seem. Though not everything is as it seems. ..

The drawing is quite good, nothing appears to be censored. Much bondage, whipping, punishment, sexual activity, and dominance.

The plot is driven along by the pictures and is interesting enough in its method. Overall, an odd, yet good "novel."… (mais)

Colored adult graphic novel.

The first Janice book (not included) involved a twenty-two year-old Janice, who was in prison for life for the crime of abortion. One day she was informed, by the Prison Governor, that an experimental change in the law is taking place. Janice left prison with a gentleman, Viscount Vauxhall who will "rehabilitate" her. Viscount Vauxhall whips her, brands her, plays with her at orgy parties.

In this sequel, the story date is still 1766, and Janice is still in England under the control of Viscount Vauxhall.

In this second tale, Janice finds herself at an orgy party, but wearing a chastity belt. She is there to give pleasure, not to receive it. Later she is set up with a Lord Mitchcombe to become his wife (and one of the few times where the women in public are fully clothed). They marry, but all is not well.

A local reverend takes advantage of Janice, the husband finds out, and Janice, the victim, is seen as the evil one. Janice's past is revealed, and the husband treats her harshly. He sends her with the reverend back to the viscount for some adjustments (the viscount's brand V is adjusted to an M; among other things). Janice returns to her husband, who "rents" her out. Her old lover turns up . . .

Interesting clothing. The women tend to go about in public wearing long dresses and with their breasts either exposed or just barely covered.

The drawing is good; the branding is censored (along with some other odd choices). Much bondage, whipping, punishment, branding, sexual activity, and dominance.

The plot is strong, and a certain amount of work went into including hints that Janice is actually in 1766. Overall, a good story.… (mais)
