 | | Taral Wayne: Frozen Fur and Flesh
UPDATED FEBRUARY 2010
Page 1: Stone | Page 2: Metal & Misc
All the 2nd Anniversay pictures in one place
3 index pages and numerous description pages containing well over 200 images, 3 full-length prose stories, and numerous text pieces accompanying the images.
Images and stories feature varying degrees of nudity and/or sexual references
LATEST UPDATE: On Page 1 you’ll find four new petrified girls (two with accompanying stories), one encased girl and one encased boy, while Page 2 adds two nude metal girls and five mannequins in various states of undress.
I’m very pleased to present, for the first time all in one location and in a few cases for the first time on line, a selection of Canadian artist Taral Wayne’s artwork featuring human and anthropomorphic characters frozen or immobilised by various means. Also a few wrapped or encased images of ‘associational interest’. More than 50 new images appear specially for the pages’ 2nd Anniversary update, and many more have been added since. As always, many thanks to Taral for his invaluable help and advice.

 | | Blowed Up Good
4-page strip
Explicit nudity and sexual references
There’s always been a strong crossover between ASFR and superhero comics, and here’s a superhero parody that I found ages ago in which the villain teaches our flexible heroine a new meaning for the word “inflation”! Unfortunately I don’t remember where I found this strip, so if anyone could supply details about the creator/artist “Zartan” I’d be grateful.

 | | Li’l Abner: The Blue Girl
6-page strip
No nudity or sexual references
When Sandra Deepfreeze wants to make a name for herself in Hollywood she discovers that the only way she can get into the good old “Hew Hess Hay” without any money is to be frozen into a statue of blue ice so she can be shipped as a work of art! What’s a poor Lower Slobbovian girl to do?
|
 | | Mannequin of Murder
6-page strip
No nudity or sexual references
Remember those incredibly corny horror comics of the 1950s? In this story a mannequin designer who is told that his work isn’t realistic enough decides to invent a serum that will make real mannequins! Unfortunately for him (and us) they don’t stay mannequins for long...
I’ve now managed to obtain scans of the printed comic, so you can now also view it in its original (if faded) 4-colour glory!

 | | Naga: Never Take
Your Apprentice for Granite
6-page strip
Explicit nudity and sexual references
Originally posted on the the Naga’s Den site, but now re-scanned in “high definition” from the original artwork, here’s Naga’s first Robin and Cindy Comic and first ADULTS ONLY story. When a witch’s apprentice is eating her out of house and home, how can she possibly balance the budget? Why, by turning her apprentice into an object and selling her, of course! Only it might not be that simple...
|
 | | RECENT: Nancy and the Statues
7-page strip
No nudity or sexual references (it’s a kids’s strip, you perv!)
Nancy has a strange adventure involving a creepy old house with a door in the fireplace, a bunch of small, hairy men, and a museum full of statues, which she looks set to become a permanent part of.
|
 | | NEW: Next Time Choose Spartan
1-panel cartoon
Mild nudity, no sexual references
A little something I found in the archive... imagine if Clash of the Titans had starred a chibi, furry Perseus, and his encounter with Medusa had turned out just a little differently.
|
 | | NEW: Planet of the Amazons
45-page CGI strip, 223 big images
Semi-explicit nudity and sexual situations;
Moderate combat violence but no blood
So there’s this primitive tribe that’s threatened by a technological civilisation... yeah, we’ve all seen that movie, right? Well, here the tribe consists of naked lesbian warriors and the invaders are naked fembots. It’s a female combat fetish scenario, of interest here not only because of the nude gynoids but also because of the orgasmic paralysis their ray-guns induce in the Amazons. It’s cleverly written and nicely rendered in Poser.
|
 | | RECENT: Smurfs in Stone
6-page strip excerpt
No nudity or sexual references (it’s also a kids’s strip, you perv!)
Gargamel’s latest scheme involves petrifying a bunch of Smurfs (including Smurfette) so he can capture them at leisure and take them home to dinner. His dinner, that is - just as soon as he can soften them up again. Will Papa Smurf be able to organise a rescue in time?
|
 | | REVISED: The Strange Fate of the Statue Maker
6-page strip (black and white and colour versions)
No nudity or sexual references
Another enjoyably daft horror story. Mad scientist Luther Benedict accidentally invents a machine that turns flesh to solid stone and decides to use it on a real model! Unfortunately it doesn’t work out at all the way he plans. The wonderful thing about this story is that the plot makes absolutely no sense whatever!
Another comic for which I’ve now found colour scans.
|
 | | RECENT: A Study in Innocence
1-page humour strip.
Moderate cartoon nudity and sex.
When an artist’s wife is about to catch him having an affair with a model, the two of them have to think quickly to avoid getting caught...
|
 | | Tokyo Crazy Paradise: Tsukasa frozen
16-page manga excerpt
Moderate nudity, no sexual references
Tsukasa was raised as a boy, but there’s no way she can hide her true gender when she is placed on display as a living representation of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus!
She’s just one of several living works of art that are due to be auctioned off to some rich people who apparently have no qualms about letting human beings get turned into helpless objects as long as they’re good-looking. Hey, it works for me!
|
 | | RECENT: When the Lights Go Out
4-page strip
No nudity or sexual references
A moral story from the 1970s British girls’ comic anthology Misty. When Anne decides to leave the kids’ Xmas party at her mother’s department store so she can do a bit of shoplifting instead, she discovers that fate has a surprise in (the) store. Not that it’ll be too much of a surprise to anyone who’s familiar with the content of this site, but you know...

 | | Idle Minds
Complete strip (30+ pages)
No nudity or sexual references
Idle Minds is a comic by Ian Samson about a girl who volunteers to be turned into a statue so she can spy on an evil dictator. But will she be able to stay sane while her mind is locked in a stone body? I have to admit, the ending was a bit unexpected (and not quite how I would have written it), but it does work perfectly in context (and forms part of a longer story that hasn’t been written yet but I want to read when it is).

 | | Medusa Realm - Comic Books
Archive
Some images feature mild to explicit nudity and/or sexual references
The Medusa Realm’s comic art archive, featuring
*Original comic art by CMQ
*Various comic book scans
*The Statue-Lover’s Guide to Comics (2002 vintage).
Unfortunately there are numerous missing files, but on the whole it’s still a very useful resource.

 | | NEW: Oglaf: Pork Chisel
1-page strip
Explicit nudity and sex
Oglaf is a comic featuring what its creator describes as “fairly explicit dick jokes” (plus the occasional sfw strip just to confuse people), all of which have a medieval fantasy setting. This one pretty much speaks for itself, and it’s definitely on-topic for this site. There’s also a curious similarity with Les Petites Femmes, listed below, which probably proves that great dick jokers think alike.

 | | NEW: Les Petites Femmes: Les Tetes de Noeud
Complete graphic novel (read online or download as pdf)
Explicit nudity and sex
Thanks once again to Taral Wayne for pointing me in the direction of this one. Les Petites Femmes is a French graphic novel series featuring bizarre sex farces. In this story (#3 of 5 or 6) various people washed up on a remote island are assaulted by walking penises(!!!) and turned to stone. The victims can only be restored to life by sex with a normal man, which means they often wake up in the arms of a total stranger. If you can ignore the unfortunate sexual implications and some astonishingly racist “natives” you might find it amusing. It probably helps if you can read French too, which I can’t.
