These abbreviated young women appear in an illustration reblogged from this 8 March 2015 post at Infernal Wonders. They come from the pen and the imagination of French artist Joël Jurion, a really extraordinary illustrator a sample of whose art you can find at this Masters of Anatomy page. You can follow him on twitter at @JoelJurion and support him at this Tipee page.

There might be some minor service issues over the next 72 hours as Erotic Mad Science is moved to a more powerful hosting account. I regret any inconvenience: at least they’re growing pains! We hope to be back to uninterrupted service soon…

I am pleased to announce that my (very) graphic novella Bait has a permanent Internet Archive home:
Here is the link to the archive page, where you can download the whole graphic novel and all of its pendant art in either CBZ (a comic book archive format similar to ZIP) or as a single big PDF document. You can also read the comic in a nifty screen reader the archive provides (also embedded in small size above). The archive has also auto-converted my uploads into a variety of other formats. The completeness or reliability of these versions is a bit uncertain, but I would welcome reports from anyone who wants to look at them.
At 113 pages and with no fewer than five contributing artists, the assembly and uploading of this version of the comic was an unusual challenge, and it pleases me no end that this particular phase of the Bait project is now complete!

This is Faustus Crow’s vision of the sacrifice of the daughters of Leos, a piece of Greek mythology they don’t normally teach you about in school, but one cited by the minister in Bait to illustrate the heroism of the three sacrificed women in that story: see the re-numbered Page 83 of Bait. Erosarts’s re-imagining of that scene is straightforward. Here Faustus Crow’s is figurative (consider, for example, the allegorical figures of plague and famine the background from which Athens is to be delivered by the daughters’ sacrifice). You can spend a lot of time hunting for other occult detail here, and I encourage you to do so.
If you’re interested in Faustus Crow’s work you can find a blog by him here (“Faustus Crow: Shaman Chaos Magick”) and a book website here (“Goetia Girls”). If you want a list of his books you can buy there is one at Goodreads or you can just search for his name at Amazon. You can also, as I do, support his extraordinary art on Patreon.

The fourth and to my mind most fetching of Lucy Fidelis’s pendant illustration to Bait. Chiba Moe, working as an ama, encounters and makes friends with an octopus. As with the others, this illustration is available in high-resolution.
