A Villainous note from the Artist
Greeting Villains! Welcome back! I had a great blog written out talking about my awesome birthday weekend getaway to Napa Valley filled with Medieval torture chambers, bountiful feasts, and pleasurable spoils but my shit fuck of a computer decided to crap on it. I’m not bitter or anything but it’s just to let you know that it was magnificent and now that weed is legal in CA, I have no care in the world to replicate said blog. So this one will have to do. Two more pages left in the issue. Who could it be rapping at Matthew’s chamber door? Any guesses?

“Medieval” torture devices are almost all Renaissance inventions designed either as comedy or to blacken the name of their own “unenlightened” grandfathers. See also the myths of the chastity belt and prima nocte, neither of which were ever a thing … until the Renaissance and Enlightenment dreamed them up, that is.
