I Love the Smell of HALOTHANE in the Morning...

...it smells like, sweet sweet victory.

Here is a link to the full scene from Adam Warren's "Empowered #1". This book is unbelievable, there is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much bondage. I mean every single story in this book has Empowered getting the full treatment, ropes, gags, everything. When I found this chloroforming it was like angels came down from Heaven. It was like winning the lottery.

What an interesting choice for an anesthetic though: HALOTHANE?!?! I can just envision what happened in the editor's office when Adam presented his script:

Warren: "Here is the final script for Empowered."

Editor: "Ah ok. Wait, what is this? Chloroform? Isn't that the stuff rapists use? I can't have this in my book!"

Warren: "You're offended by my use of chloroform, yet all this explicit bondage doesn't bother you at all?"

Editor: "Well we all know that sex sells! But we need to modify 'chloroform' into an anesthetic that doesn't have such a negative connotation. What are your thoughts?"

Warren: "Well, a lot of writers use 'ether' as a valid substitute for chloroform..."

Editor: "Nonsense! An archaic anesthetic is unacceptable! What's the stuff they use in hospitals today, halothane?"

Warren: "Hmm, well I guess I can just soak the rag with some halothane and call it a day."

Editor: "Good man. Now make those ball gags tighter so we can sell more of this shit."

Next they're going to be soaking rags with Fentanyl.

What else turned up recently? How about another Red Sonja drugged drink KO. When Red Sonja is drugged, WE ALL WIN!!

Okay, I'm going to take a break from talking about women getting drugged to talk about my exciting life. On Tuesday I went to Cedar Point. What a bad decision, considering it was like 100 degrees outside. I rode a total of 5 rides: Magnum, Maverick, Top Thrill Dragster, Power Tower and Millenium Force. My brother rode more rides and he even rode Maverick twice. The line for Maverick was an hour long. The ride itself is very intense, but fun nonetheless. We somehow managed to get on Top Thrill without waiting in line! Top Thrill is simply the most incredible ride I've ever experienced.

About Empowered, I ordered this book months before its release, as the plot sounded so promising. Well, the drawings are awesome, the heroine is cute as can be BUT... Mr Warren isn't interested in sleepy at all. This Halothane scene is quite disappointing to me, hard to tell she's really out... The book has about 200 pages, the subject is a heroine in distress and you only get 3 "sleepy" drawings.
I'm waiting for the second opus but I'm not very optimistic...

I did not enjoy "Empowered" as much as I thought I would. Like Monsieur Paul said, it did not have the "Sleepy" scenes that I was anticipating! Plus, while Adam Warren drew his heroine with a fantastic body, her face just did not do anything for me at all! It did not look quite human, really! I like pretty faces on my superheroines, darn it!

Empowered is Warren's creator-owned project, so he can do whatever he wants--there's no editor telling him he can't do something in "my" book because it's not owned by the publisher. They're just happy to have the sales.

As Warren explains, the character started out as a pin-up character he'd use when fans at comic conventions asked him to do bondage art; he wasn't interested in drawing maintream characters like Wonder Woman. From there he started wondering if he could use the character in a graphic novel, and that's where the book came from.
