So, just who is Hanther?

Depends on which Hanther you are asking about. I, the Hanther typing this page the morning of November 15, 2009, in the United States of America under the power grasping administration of the quisling Arab god king in the White House, am not the same Hanther appearing on the top row of panels on today’s Tandra Page posted on the Tandra Dot Com web site. I am older, have more hair though my hair is not quite so long, and my waist line is not so wide. Also, I have never been to Tandra to view all the other world wonders and oogle the nekked wimmen. Drat! On the other hand, I’ve never been to Tandra to be butchered by any stray brigand with a sword. All things being equal, I’ll pass on the visit with the naked ladies in preference to avoiding the bloody warlord with the sword.

Hanther, the balding guy with the paunch and receding hair line has been to Tandra and, by the thinnest of miracles, lived to tell about it. He, like me, has published ink on paper books about Tandra and possibly has a web site, though I’m not certain about the site. While I have invented Tandra of whole cloth, with inspiration from various sources, the balding Hanther was inspired to begin his Tandra project by the surprise meeting with Earthian David Galon way back in the “Alpha Men” tale published in 1981. He was there when Galon came with a lady by name of Danene who was in need of medical treatment unavailable on Tandra. In case you are wondering, health Care on Tandra really sucks, another reason I prefer to remain on Earth. It was from David Galon Hanther first learned of Tandra and was then inspired to begin publishing. We don’t just make this stuff up, you understand. Hanther is just reporting the facts as they come to him.

Since the “Alpha Men” adventure (which happens to be available from our on line store in the compilation “Tandra Double Exposure”) Hanther has been in contact with those from Tandra several times, each time getting the latest word on goings on there. When Tremaine came to Earth a few years back (The Tremaine On Earth Set is also available from our Tandra Store) Senator R. Miles Haggerty learned of Tandra and has considered ways to turn such knowledge to advantage. That is the reason Hanther is seen at the top of this week’s page talking with Senator Haggerty’s assistant, Ms. Crimea River. Senator Haggerty wants to know everything about Tandra before he finalizes his scheme.

What that scheme turns out to be is the stuff of upcoming weeks and those involved include a costumed vigilante, Hanther himself and a return villain you would never expect in a way that you could never imagine. As the ad says, It’s not the super bad guy in the silly suit that presents the greatest danger. The real threat is from the Shadow Men who created him!

Stay tuned!

May the sun always shine on your parade!

Next Week; “Manufactured Hero”

Tandra...more than escapist fantasy, it’s a revolution!
