[TheSchoolBus] Damsel Saved! The End... or the Beginning?
STOP! CHECK OUT THE ORIGINAL SUBMISSION TODAY!
Another mission Leo was called upon. Another dangerous one. But Leo certainly wasn't one to shy away from such adventures despite favoring peace, now was he?
Moments earlier, he had easily snuck through and bypassed the poorly-strung defenses of the heavily-fortified fortress in pursuit of retrieving a kidnapped feline damsel. After all, to a ninja lion like Leo where any shady building housing thousands of mooks was a welcome mat, a giant building hidden away in the forest was an engraved invitation. Having disposed of every last subordinate and insurgent that held down the not-so-inconspicuous base - home to the evil organization known as, well, "EVIL" - Leo thwarted EVIL's hastily-laid plan to hold the blue cat girl, Julie, hostage for their own nefarious deeds. With the feline damsel in his arms - the girl being snugly bound in duct tape and helplessly gagged in red cloth, Leo charged at full speed and escaped the building just as its self-destruction sequence was activated, seeing to the last of the fortress' existence as the base exploded in a grand fury of fire and rubble.
Clearing a sizable distance away from the explosion and landing on his feet-paws with the natural grace of a cat that such a ninja lion would possess, Leo and Julie looked back at the destruction that they had escaped from, safe from harm. It wasn't unnatural of a ninja lion Leo to check out and admire the results of his thwarting a small organization, especially to such a big scale. After catching their breaths for a moment, Leo turned to Julie to make sure she was okay.
"Ha! That was a close one, huh?" He asked, chuckling as he propped the bound kitty girl with the large ponytail upright. "You're safe now though! No bad guy's layin' a hand-paw on such a sweet cat like you!"
Julie nodded and giggled softly through her cloth gag, a bit uncomfortable in her bindings but otherwise very appreciative of the shinobi hero who rescued her. She smiled under the gag as she caught her breath from the adrenaline rush of the situation. The feline girl had been involved in her fair share of bondage and cloth gags in the past, but never to such a degree where she was put in a plight of peril; who knows what EVIL would've done to her had Leo not have answered that mission on the village bulletin board.
But just as Leo had reached out to attempt untying the poor girl, a not-too-distant paw-step made his ears twitch. Both furs turned to the sound of a figure having stepped out and appearing right in front of them. It certainly wasn't any EVIL lackey that Leo had encountered earlier. And his clothes looked almost too foreign wherever this gentleman came from. A dark blue trench coat decorated with gold chains, draping down to the very soles of his boots.
But this fellow feline - yellow with thin, black stripes - certainly didn't seem like a nice cat. His static expression didn't echo any threats, but it certainly didn't emit any pleasant vibes either. He was neither friend nor foe. No, this was an entirely different entity altogether.
Leo and Julie stared at the sudden newcomer with cocked eyebrows, trying to piece together who he was.
"Uh... Can we help you?" the ninja lion reluctantly asked.
The figure never moved or budged an inch from where he stood, continuing to stare with rather ominous intent. He uttered not one syllable, yet it seemed like his presence was speaking volumes.
In fact... it almost felt as if... there was someone else watching... very close by...

Couldn't get enough of them bondage and cloth gag combo pics, so when I saw open up for requests in May, I had to grab a slot! And roughly two months later, out came this gem! Like, all I brought up was Leo holding a bound and gagged Julie as if he were rescuing her; it's one thing that he actually went and made it a damsel rescue comic, but he even included an epic little JoJo's Bizarre Adventure reference (a universe that the artist clearly fancies himself delving in)!
Already an epic approach how the idea got turned into a full-on one-page comic! Simple and straightforward story with a twist cameo at the end that I didn't see coming! Excellent work getting all characters' designs down-pat, especially Leo's! Really diggin' the sort of toony style here which is very aesthetically appealing, especially with how Leo looks in it from his anime-styled mane/hairdo to his neck fluff to his clothing (all of which have been drawn nicely)! Very well done on the facial expressions in each panel when Leo's seen close-up, having him all bright and expressive with his eyes, especially in the fourth panel when he's exuding uncertainty as to what the Hell's going on! lol Each of his poses are simple yet effective in each of the panels when he's seen close-up, showing body language with his arm around Julie's back in the second panel so as to not let her fall back it looks like! lol Colouring is spot-on everywhere for him and everyone present; good work making sure his markings were evident, too! I especially find it cool how the last panel with just Kevin set a rather ominous yet epic tone with that dramatic appearance, throwing in a good amount of shading and using those iconic Japanese katakana for the SFX typically found in JoJo lore! Also I don't know why, but I find it so adorably funny the way Leo and Julie look as little stick figures with very minimal detail in the panels when they're seen far away. And even the building explosion was an epic touch, showing Leo making a daring rescue and saving the OTN-gagged kitty damsel!
In the third panel, Leo's stick figure look doesn't seem to possess his mane/hairdo as opposed to Julie. But considering how far away they are and how those forms aren't to be taken too seriously - as the focus in that panel was more for the dramatic foot-paw-step into the shot by Kevin - that's not a big issue.
And then in his original description, he goes on to say...
I'm probably gonna do a dumb animation to go with this so stay tuned
OH, SNAP! Now I'm really looking forward to that happening! Something tells me that it's gonna be epic having that come to fruition!
You've clearly outdone yourself with this surprising and highly welcomed turn on my request idea, ! Thank you very much for making this better than I had expected! You are awesome, and you should feel awesome!
