Something Very Bad Was Coming

When Hack’s cover artist Jonny M.’s Bro Joe posted an amusing story on his Facebook wall about how an obnoxious beatnik dragged a gigantic speaker into a Starbucks he was at to blast his personal music through its loudspeakers to the annoyance of everyone around him. But Joe lost Hack’s sympathy when he wrote of the man “He is also wearing a beret, so I knew something very bad was coming” since the beret is famously Jonny’s headwear of choice and Hack doesn’t like anyone besides himself to publicly mock his collaborator. So Hack crapped out this angry response to Bro Joe’s missive depicting him as a MAGA-loving redneck. It’s actually a pretty accurate depiction.

The Ill-Timed Poop

Here’s another tribute to a Hack supporter. Rob Vestal has always making a point of “liking” our posts when he checks them out and in thanks, he’s inevitably depicted as a murder victim when the story calls for it. In this novel, the story of Vestal’s availabilty as a corpse is explained when his super-hot paramour (depicted as 1940s movie star Gene Tierney) turned out to be a Mistress of Disguise who makes up a Skid Row vagrant that Vestal rubs out to look like him whenever he needs to fake his own death (which is alarmingly often).
