It's a shame that they never did a crossover where Rocky ends up on the Bold Venture

Yeah, there weren't a lot of crossovers like that back then. It did happen, but not very often.

Too bad, because I would love a Rocky Fortune / Bold Venture mash-up.

What I like about Rocky Fortune is that later in the run of the series, the stories start to get really dark. But... with great funny dialog.

My great niece is named Saylor...
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 9:48pm
Austin Rich:

↳ Imaginos @9:46
I think she was named Sailor by her father, who was a sailor by trade, and was good friends with Slate. And Sailor herself doesn't seem that interested in being a sailor, just being Slate's girl. So... maybe it's okay?

I started seriously making 'zines again after a bit of a break from making a regular zine, and I did not realize how much I missed it. I would make a one-off zine, maybe once every few years. But writing regularly, with plans to print, is better than i remember.
