Die Now, Die Later! Page 26 NSFW
Cutlass – Cut Lass… Get it?
And so, after all of the build up, the action begins. From here ’til the end of this story, it will be more action packed. This is the first time since I’ve declared the R-Rating that I’ve posted a page that is R-Rated! I think many of the pages in this story have probably been PG-13. I still even censor the curses… but I think that may stop beginning with the next story. We’ll see. I think censoring the curses is probably funnier. The next story is probably 15 – 20 weeks away…
Despite the R-Rating, I’ve been quite cautious in implementing it. I’ve been loath to take any steps that would alienate the readers. It’s fun doing a strip that’s a little risque, though! At any rate, I hope you are enjoying it





I couldn't focus on the blood with that nipple slip getting in the way.
Funny how that happens!
Well she definitely shouldn't be called Cut LESS
This is true!
Cutlass kicks ass!
Thanks Chris… That she does!…I wasn't sure how this page would be received, so I'm glad to hear I didn't alienate at least one reader!
Soooo looks like Van Schleiser stayed home to watch the Brady Bunch after all. It took me a while to realise the blood belonged to the intruder. I thought he'd slashed Mallory on behalf of Miss Cutlass. Calico???
Yes… Van Schleiser stayed home for the evening. Sorry the story telling wasn't as "clear cut"!
Mallory is also a sleeper agent called "Calico" who is a killing machine set off by a tape recording. She wreaked quite a bit of havoc in the last story! Whoever created Calico also more than likely created Cutlass…
I didn't quite get who killed whom, either, at first.
Now where did cutlass come from? Did she just appear here?
The Cutlass killed the thug who broke in…she came in through the door while the other two were otherwise distracted. There will be a little more clarification as to what happened – in the next strip!
Birds of a bloody feather kill together, eh? Herschell Gordon Lewis would love those last three frames! One note: if you're enjoying yourself, Jerry, we're enjoying it too!
I had to Google Herschell Gordon Lewis! There's certainly an exploitation film vibe which I've been trying to get from this… although, I'll be the first to admit, I can't watch horror films… I'm too squeamish. My wife often ends up watching horror movies when I'm out having a "guy's night", because I won't watch them.
I am a little more familiar with Russ Meyer. He used 1960's Playboy Bunnies in some truly awful movies, like Beyond The Valley of The Dolls… some lines are so bad to be down right quoteable. I had seen a bio of him on A&E, and he seemed like a pretty sleazy guy.
Cutlass can take me home anytime she wants to. I really like her character. And it's good having a female around who can help me get into a bag of potato chips when I need to. The story's progressing stupendously, Jerry!
Thanks! She's good not only for opening potato chips, George… she would also be good to have around to open some of that tamper-free packaging that they put on everything these days!
Cool! Maybe now I can get those pesky prescription bottles open. 🙂
Wow… that would pretty handy! She's not just a killing machine, she's a scantily clad Swiss Army Knife!
I wonder if we could create a villainess named Swiss Army Wife? I guess somebody's already thought of it though. 😀
Dang yet another hot gal… it's getting tougher to pick my favorite female character here
Wait 'till you see the next story! Mallory is still one of my favorites to draw. She's kind of like the "Annie Fannie" of Bunny Wiggins… she routinely ends up wearing much less by the end of each episode!
He he he, despite the pun, Cutlass is still badass 🙂
Thanks, Brandon! I think Cutlass is pretty sharp! ooh.. another bad pun…that one made me sound like I'm living in 1940." Saaaaay, you mugs… that Cutlass looks pretty sharp… Savvy?"
That has got to be the rudest ninja ever. Someone trying to assassinate you is one thing, but there's no call for "shut your trap"!.
Let this be an object lesson about what happens to rude ninjas!
I'm pretty sure she's going to have a hard time getting those blood stains out of her skimpy evening wear o.O [wink]
I'm afraid she's just going to have to buy some new skimpy evening wear.
Wow. The dude exploded! Hopefully he never said that he won't be caught dead in spandex.
If that's the case, it's fortunate that there's not enough left of him to identify!
