BAMCOMIX Presents – Hidden in the Shadows – Chapter 31 – A Low Bar

Hidden in the Shadows: Chapter 31

- - - -

Intriguing & exciting stuff Dave! . It looks as if the General has made some kind of alliance with K-Troop, or at least got her to agree not to shoot at his troops! You have to give him his credit, he keeps trying under difficult circumstances . . Although, the General does seem somewhat un-trusting of others?? Time will tell I guess?
The Sooki-a-go-go looks fantastic! a real cozy place to settle down for a pint of something cold from the harsh desert heat. The bar staff seem extremely friendly too. It really works well as the hub for the story. Seeing Frank was a touch of genius! will he turn out to be more than just random regular? maybe he will become a 'Huggy Bear' type character, where he knows more than anyone thinks he does?? we will have to wait and see!
Another great plot twist here is that the General's mission now appears to hinge on the one time assumed loony, Taerra! and it appears that she has all the information the team need to succeed . Loving this idea.
...and right at the end, we catch a glimpse of Professor Champion and his loyal side kick Louis! can't wait to find out what those two have got themselves into this time! I bet they wished they had waited for Fields! Really looking forward to the next installment!

Great stuff, Dave!!!

Really enjoying all the twists and turns and it all hangs together very well.

The Sooki Å Go-Go was your idea, morphing from Sooki's Snug. Thanks for that!

Yeah, the General is become a bit reticent to trust anyone. Is it caution stemming from his many years dealing with the vicious bureaucracy within the military establishment? Or could it be pre-dementia paranoia? Or... does he really know, or at least suspect, things that are genuinely dangerous should the info fall in to the wrong hands?

Glad it's still making sense - to an extent anyway.

Great installment Dave. I love how you worked in Michiko and her itchy trigger finger. Seeing Frank pop in was a surprise, but a welcome one. At some point, he an Major Hope are going to have to bump into each other.....

I think Kamiko must have been teasing General MacCuster. Everyone knows she wouldn't have K-Troop shoot at his guys....or gals.


I think the good general will need a whole lot more aspirin before this is over.

That's what I had in mind - Kamiko was yanking his chain. And while the General suspects that to be the case, one can never be entirely sure about Kamiko!

Really enjoyed reading this part. Really liked all the different figures being used. Very well photographed Dave.

Thank you for taking the time to read through this installment.

Yes, I have a lot of figures waving frantically from inside their storage tubs and calling out, “I want to be in the story!” “Yeah, me too, me too!” “Ooh, is there a part for me?”

And I have a lot of figures staring at me from my dresser, bookshelf and right in front of me on my computer desk demanding I do a shoot. Plus, I have disembodied heads asking me when I'm gonna get around to getting them a body?

I liked the interesting mix of figures , and their dress sense . Frank along with Dimitri gives me the willies , I find them both disturbingly odd .
