And now, another look at a character from the Jungle Jon, Prince of the Wild Graphic Novel. This is Tom, another lad who appears on the mysterious Island and will become a most important part of young Jon's life. He's featured in The Jungle Jon Portfolio, which of course is available at this link. Keep coming back for more previews of the Portfolio and the Graphic Novel in progress.

PRINCE OF THE WILD!
Here's a quick look inside The Jungle Jon Portfolio. These are the master drawings of Jon himself that I'm using for reference in creating the pages. As we go on, we'll see the masters of the other characters and a sneak preview of the first pages of the graphic novel itself, in pencil form. The Portfolio is available as a PDF online right here.

AND NOW...THE JUNGLE JON PORTFOLIO!
A while ago I dropped a hint about what I've been up to since the holidays. Over the many weeks since then, I've had to deal with not just the holidays but a whole host of other things that have badly slowed me down and completely thrown the wrench into my works. But now, at long last, the new project is up and running, and you can finally see
--and buy--THE JUNGLE JON PORTFOLIO!
In deciding to switch to a new project for a while and give a rest to the other things I've been working on, I decided to go for what is surely the simplest (though of course not simplistic) of all my creations: the illustration and graphic novel project from which I derived Wild Jon. Jungle Jon, Prince of the Wild is the earlier creation that I adapted for the Wild Jon concept.
The Jungle Jon Portfolio is an introduction and preview for the graphic novel. Here's an excerpt from the introductory text of the Portfolio:
"Our story takes place on a mysterious but beautiful tropical island. The Island is a place where there can be nothing but warmth, sunshine, happiness, contentment, and pleasure--for it also happens to be a living intelligence and that is what the Island wants. That, and to be someone's home. The Island seeks out someone to be its master, someone who needs a better home and a better life; someone good and kind and beautiful. It finds a boy named Jon and brings him to live on it, to enjoy all that the island has to offer--to be its Prince. For all Jon's spectacular youthful beauty, for all the love and kindness in his heart, life in the world outside the island has made Jon sad, lonely, and despondent, filled with heartbreak and the fear of living in a world that truly loves nothing but greed and wealth. Communicating through a being called the Voice of the Island, which takes the form of a stunning, exotic young man, the Island thus invites Jon to cast off everything in his life--even his clothes--and live there, wanting for nothing, removed from all hurt and harm. It makes him truly the Prince of the Wild.
This Portfolio serves as an introduction to the story of Jungle Jon, Prince of the Wild: the initial designs of its cast of characters and a first look at the opening pages of the story in a "Director's Cut" form, prior to inking and coloring. All are welcome on the Island, so keep visiting there and see all the sexy fun unfold with the story of Jungle Jon."
The Jungle Jon Portfolio contains material that is Not Safe for Work. Download and enjoy it, but beware of where you open and look at it!
The Jungle Jon, Prince of the Wild Graphic Novel is now in production. The final work will be released first as two individual issues, then as a collected Graphic Novel edition. The Portfolio is now on sale at https://jafludd.selz.com/item/54cea15fb7987202a806250d?mode=edit
In future posts, we'll be seeing more of the Portfolio and new pages of the Graphic Novel as they're completed, so stick around. You've got a passport to the Island!
