<h3>Simpson, Homer J.</h3>

Apparently, it's important that you put in the right information on backend Web page coding. Or your videos get cut off midway through.

All current (and hopefully future) cybercomics videos will now play correctly. Unless they don't. Doh.

<h3>Jungle Warfare Pt. 3</h3>

ispy
My intentions were good, as the signposts say on the road to perdition. Not that the sin of untimely updates is mine alone. Or cause for eternal fire. Sounding very metaphysic, I suppose. Must be some leftover dreck from the abysmal Battesnore Galactic series end.

In any regard, my own contribution to the subgenre of silly narrative is this 3rd chapter of Jungle Warfare. Long time readers of this short running blog will remember that this is the spy-centric entry in my Cybercomics collection. These "digitally enhanced" comics from the mid-nineties crackled with limited animation, looping sound effects, and earnest effort by all involved as we tried to figure out a new avenue for income and storytelling. Herein, Marvel Comics master spook, Nick Fury, is on edge as his team tries to keep the malfunctioning Gamega bomb out of the hands of the belligerent and mercenary Tyrannicals. Ah, when the words "terrorist" and "weapons of mass destruction" had such innocent meaning.

<h3>Jungle Warfare Pt. 2</h3>

More fun with Nick Fury and cold war era espionage, infused with eighties-nineties action movie sensibilities. It's part 2 of Jungle Warfare, the SHIELD-tastic entry in my Cybercomics contribution. Marvel's top spy and his jumpsuited operatives have retrieved the MacGuffin, a blow-em-all-to-hell nasty called the Gamega bomb. But as such things go, they're not the only ones with a taste for high-yield, government sanctioned explosives. And so the confrontation begins.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: click on SHIELD in the scrolling menu up top, then pick a chapter from the page that appears below.

<h3>Abominable Humor</h3>

It's immediately classic, but the explanation at the end makes it even more so.
