The 40 Years of Comics Project - Day 1253: Bastard #2, 2001
More nuttiness ensues! After re-releasing Dark Schneider (apparently named after the lead singer of the band Accept), the evil wizard (the heroic one, not the one attacking Metallicana on the back of a Hydra) animates an enormous Stone Golem in the basement of the castle, presumably to use it to take over the kingdom. Instead he defends the kingdom from another evil wizard, and then has feelings for Yoko (who is still 15 years old), kisses her, and turns back into his 14 year old self.
This is some weird, weird shit. I've got half of the series, and if I can find them cheap, I'll pick up the rest, because I think I really need to see what's going to happen here. I do have a later volume, a tankoban, that's in the original Japanese, but I can tell absolutely nothing about the story from what's inside. Can't wait to get there though.
More to come...
