For something a little bit different from what I usually post for Comic Book Saturdays, here's Sheba the Great, a creator-donated comic book that was recently posted to comicbookplus. As the creator, Von Allan. notes, the comic was writen in 2004, drawn in 2015, tweaked in 2022, and finally colored, lettered, and edited in late 2022.
The lovely and voluptuous Princess Aurora, daughter of Baron Kulonius, has been kidbapped. The Baron's concerns are mercenary: he has aready had one daughter kidnapped and (gasp!) violated, thus ruining her chances for a potential marriage. So he has hired bounty hunter Sheba the great and her robot Otto to find and return the princess. Intact. The trail takes the two to the ruined asteroid Melachor and its cursed and abandoned city. Aurora's still active transponder, which the Baron had installed in her, indicates that the Princess is alive and somewhere below the city. In a tunnel underneath the city, Sheba and Otto come across indications that the Barbarian Clones of Ashton-Five are lurking there -- evil beings who had been created by the even-more evil Queen Alora. Sheba thought she had destroyed all of the Barbarian Clones a few years ago with a well-placed nuke. She also thought she had killed Queen Alora. She was wrong on both counts.
The Clones attack. They are each wearing a portable force shield which makes them immune to Sheba's blaster. Alora is alive -- of sorts. Her zombiefied body is being rejuvenated with the blood of Princess Aurora. Alora wants her vengeance on Sheba. She is also determined to kill her captive, Princess Aurora. And Alora is also protected by a portable force shield. Can Sheba destroy the Barbarian Clones, defeat Alora, rescue Aurora (and her supposed virginity), and earn her bounty? Go figure.
Note: There is some cleavage and some massive mammaries, which, I suppose, can be de rigueur for some creator-owned comics.
Enjoy.
