Turpentine (3): Dr. Honeywood, can we speak?

Panel 3: Turpentine talking to the door.
Turpentine (4): Listen, I’ve talked with the expedition sponsor via satellite phone. He understands how critical you’ve become to the success of this expedition, and he has said he’s willing to raise the charitable donation to five million dollars if you can…cooperate.
Translation (4): Hören Sie, ich habe per Satellitentelefon mit dem Sponsor der Expedition gesprochen. Er versteht, wie entscheidend Sie jetzt für den Erfolg der Expedition sind und hat zugestimmt, die wohltätige Spende auf fünf Millionen Dollar zu erhöhen, wenn Sie…kooperieren.
Panel 4: View of Claudia sitting on her bunk in her cabin. Her arms angrily folded over her chest, her face set. This panel is “surveillance video” so it should have a somewhat vaguer, grainer look to it than most panels.

Translation (5): Mit fünf Millionen Dollar kann man viel Gutes tun, Claudia.

Promotional art for Truck Turner podcast by Lucy Fidelis
It’s always fun to be on the Grindbin Podcast, and this week’s episode has me on with Grindbin regulars Mike and Bobby and fellow guest (and fellow comics writer) Michael J. Tanner to discuss the great big blacksploitation picture Truck Turner, with great big Isaac Hayes, a very menacing Yaphet Kotto, and Nichelle Nichols in a role that will really surprise all you Star Trek fans. Faustus says give it a listen! You can play or download the episode here or just search for Grindbin on your podcast app of choice.

PAGE 64 (Four panels)
Panel 1: View of Claudia again, realization sinking in.
Claudia (1): No.
Translation (1): Nein.
Panel 2: Claudia in the act of standing up, her face enraged.
Claudia (2): No fucking way, do you understand?
Comment (2): “Fucking” in Claudia’s dialog line here shouldn’t be translated literally. In colloquial English, used in the way Claudia is using it here, it serves purely as an intensifier (generally used by someone who is angry) to stress the point.
Translation (2): Auf gar keinen Fall, kapiert?
Panel 3: Claudia in the midst of storming past Turpentine out of the room. Turpentine has reached out to grab her sleeve, and Claudia has a hand raised to swat it away.
Turpentine (3): Claudia, please.
Translation (3): Claudia, bitte.
Claudia (4): Let go of me!
Translation (4): Lassen Sie mich los!
Panel 4: View of Hiram, sitting back in his chair and rolling his eyes.
Hiram (5): Women!
Translation (5): Frauen!
