If you like hearing about the why's and how's of the pictures and stories, please read on! I thought I'd share my thinking regarding the content I've posted on the site. A lot of it came from your suggestions and requests.
The primary feature on the site is Domino Lady. I posted a few pics of my version of The Domino Lady over at DeviantArt. The character was a hit! When I started the Patreon site, the feedback I received regarding content included a feature story with this character. So, I read the original 6 stories published by Saucy Romantic Adventures in the 1930's and decided to keep as close as possible to the original format.
The Domino Lady is the alter ego of a 20's something debutante named Ellen Patrick. Her father was a District Attorney in Hollywood who was assassinated shortly after Ellen completed college at Berkeley. While it's never stated in the original texts, it appears that Ellen seeks revenge for her father's murder. Ellen tracks political corruption and tries to blackmail and incarcerate those involved in shady political dealings. The method used in each story involves Ellen using her beauty and charm to seduce rich, powerful men and get them to reveal their secrets. She then dons a party gown, cape and mask to hide her identity while she attempts to steal money and important documents from the powerful men she earlier seduced. She leaves her calling card, a business card, "Compliments of the Domino Lady" after the theft. This information is handed over to the authorities. She keeps most of the money. In short, she's a cat burglar in the Robin Hood Sense.
I've attempted to recreate this atmosphere. The story begins with Ellen Patrick, buxom and ditzy as ever, seducing Wade Lilmeyer, a rich politically motivated individual in Francisco who was involved in the murder of Rob Wyatt a year earlier. Wyatt was no saint either, by the way. The "twist" I incorporated was having her fail to notice a second individual in the house and to be knocked out by another woman. In most stories, Ellen confronts only men. The Domino Lady has been likened to a hooker, so I figured how ironic would it be if she were captured by a hooker who mistakenly thought that Ellen was competition. After reading nearly 30 Domino Lady stories and seeing how many men Ellen left horney and frustrated, I thought it would be interesting to include this in the story. Poor wade gets teased by not one sexy woman, but three, Ellen, the hooker and then The Domino Lady. The guy's gotta be ready to burst!
The story then unfolds with Wade taking full sexual advantage of the Domino Lady. In fact, he wants to be able to claim that he not only defeated the Domino Lady, but bedded her as well. Thus, he doesn't unmask her right away. I also like it when the heroine's own weapons are used against them. The Domino Lady always carries a syringe filled with sedative. Why not have Wade discover this and use it against her?
The next few pages will involve all the fun ways Wade will play with the subdued Domino Lady. Then, I have a decision to make. Do I continue this story arc or start a new one? My plan to continue involves Ellen being shipped unconscious to Poland and forced to spy for the Allies pre-World War II. She will meet the Blue Bulletteer and they will join forces. A new story would follow the same method as above, remaining in California during the 1930's. I'll run a poll to see what folks want, but if you've read this far, let me know what you think. Also, let me know what you think of the plot elements. Do they make sense, are they interesting?
Thanks!

Sounds good to me.. anything involving BB and Domino Lady is bound to have plenty of pulp peril plot twists. Looking forward to it!
