We’re pleased to welcome two new series, THE TUNNELS OF WOE and THE LOST ERA TRANSCRIPTS. The TRANSCRIPTS are not a comic, but rather, a graphic record of the world we have lost, as explained in the Introduction.
Pete Hampton was a wildly eccentric, some would say ‘mad’ genius. He was a painter, naturalist, and showman. His paintings and stories told of his adventures in the Puente Hills in Whittier, and La Habra Heights, California.
As a child, Pete displayed a passionate love of nature, and a tremendous talent for depicting the world around him. In his youth he saw this pastoral corner of Southern California give way to the post WWII housing boom. Miles of grove land, and the beautiful hillsides fell to housing tracts, and shopping malls. Pete’s life became a mission. He was determined to save the remaining hills from development.
To accomplish this mission he painted thousands of pictures of the life and countryside he grew up in. He created slide shows of his paintings in the hope that people would see his shows, and be inspired to join him in his crusade.
The Lost Era slide show was begun in 1961, but never completed. In the archives of Pete’s work I discovered the hand written note books and fragments of the narration for the show, along with hundreds of paintings that accompanied the narrative. I have re-created the slide show here in book form in The Lost Era Transcripts.
Through Pete Hampton’s art you will view one of the untouched pastoral corners still remaining in mid-century Southern California.
You’ll get an intimate look into the strange world of this most eccentric genius, a world of transcendent beauty, and breath taking terror.

Not The Bee picks up on the coming BLACK WARRANT from The Legend, who most certainly is based. Although, to be precise, he did not create the Punisher, he was merely the lead writer on the comic for a while.
Marvel is a woke company now. They have to celebrate lawlessness in the name of equity, and people being inspired by a vigilante fighting the criminals that corrupt judges and officials turn back out onto the streets was unacceptable.
First they tried to discredit the Punisher by making him a villain. They added devil horns to his logo and made him the leader of a clan of assassins called The Hand (the same clan of assassins he has battled for years in the comics and on the small screen).
But that wasn’t enough.
Frank Castle and all that he represented had to be destroyed.
In an interview, Chuck Dixon, the creator of the Punisher, was asked this question:
If it’s true that Marvel really did change the Punisher symbol because they don’t like the kind of people who like it (ie police and military), then it begs the question, why do the people at Marvel hate their fans so much? Why would anyone at Marvel hire people that hate the fans? Hating and trying to annoy the fans of your characters seems like a terrible business strategy
Dixon gives a lengthy response in the following video, but it can be summed in this part of the response:
They certainly don’t seek the kind of readers who would like the Punisher now. In addition to their contempt for the Punisher, I think this current crop of editors has a deep-seated dislike of the police and the military as well. So, it’s the old gang of deplorables thing.
Yes, that’s right. The creator of the Punisher is based.
And if you’re interested, Dixon is currently publishing stories over at Arkhaven Comics, including a new vigilante series called “Black Warrant,” which given his comments about the Punisher promises much less wokeness than anything Marvel is pumping out.
