(NSFW) Iolæ - spike peril
🕑 Added 2025-02-16 03:05:59 +0000 UTC"The thick stone walls inched inexorably closer, driven by enormous pressure. The deadly iron spikes reached for Iolæ... hungering for her flesh, thirsting for her blood... even as the magic-infused shackles that bound her wrists refused to yield to her incredible strength!"
I wanted to do another picture of my warrior/barbarian woman OC Iolæ, since it seems that single illustrations (instead of comics) are going to be all I can do. And I decided to revive that classic of pulp stories, movie serials, and even cartoons, the "squeeze room" with optional spike-studded walls.
This pic had a specific inspiration–this painting by Victor Prezio...
...that was used as the cover of "Real Men" magazine, April 1963:
I'm not sure which article this pic was supposed to tease... very likely none of them; it was probably just supposed to get you to pick up the magazine.
So... I have no idea what events led up to Iolæ being trapped in this diabolical device, or how she's going to escape. (Maybe she'll be rescued by a wizard who want her to do him a "small favor" in return–"retrieve" a powerful gem from a cursed temple, or something.)

I've always had a secret passion for magic-infused chains, which by mixing the resistance of steel and the power of magic, are able to hold and contain the power of our heroines...
