This is a short story made in response to Terminal Hair reader input through the Terminal Hair twitter account last year. Thanks for the input, guys! And also to the Patrons who helped make this possible.
“A romantic outdoor tryst between Human & Neanderthal men – a refreshing romp after a long, cramped winter. No caves, no clubs.”
I was quite happy to draw a story about stone age hunks. All of my favorite gay porn comic artists have cavemen stories.
The voting for the theme is up for the next day! Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far. Feel free to keep contributing about the characters–they’re a bit blank at the moment–and to take inspiration from the theme options.
Using community-sourced suggestions, twitter polls and some iterative synthesis by me as the editor/moderator, I’d like to construct a short, porn sketch comic. Driven, primarily of course, by you as readers (whoever you might be!).
Theme/Setting/Genre – what the scene is about, what they do, etc. Character A – What this first person looks like, who he is Character B – What this second person looks like, who he is
These questions will be left intentionally vague so you have a broad amount of freedom with what you think they should mean. The only hitch is that you’ll only have the privilege of 140 characters per category to convey your ideas–so that’s one tweet’s worth of contribution per character, and also the theme. Don’t worry if you don’t have a twitter account, you can still contribute your ideas via email: terminalhair@joncairns.net or through tumblr asks, openly or anonymously. A twitter DM to ChestPelt will work, too, if you’re shy. That said, you’re still only entitled to the ideas contained within your first 140 characters.
Feel free to make as many suggestions you want beyond the 140 character limit, though. Just think of the first 140 as having the most suggestive power. Additional contribution will receive secondary consideration.
After a day or so (let’s say 11:59p PST on Tuesday), I’ll collect the theme suggestions and turn four of them into a twitter poll. Voting will be open for a day, and once it ends, I’ll do two concurrent character polls with suggested characters that fit the theme. There’ll probably be matching doodles to make your vote less blind.
Once those results are in, I’ll head into my cave, and hopefully emerge a few days later with a very short porn comic to share with you all.
