Now we see how evil that S.O.B. Karostropov can get.
As for the total look of shock and horror on the faces of Kit 'n' Kay, This is the first time you have shown them like this and you have captured the emotion perfectly. This and the story show you have been influenced well by David Hopkins!

Yes, I missed "Jack" when Keenspace was down. Pepe is the past master
of this type of emotion; myself, I'm still a rank amateur. That's another
reason I wanted to do this story, I need to develop more as an artist.
And yes, Karostropov is indeed just as cruel as I've related in this story.
(You should see what he does in the stories that the Big G and CW write,
you wouldn't believe it...)
Let's hope that they know the way to get rid of him for good. Maybe GC and CW figured it out but were not able to act.
Gene and CW did what they could (as did Kit & Kay) and that's what kept
Karostropov from doing more damage than he has. He can't be destroyed
by any means yet known; the best that can be done is to either render
him powerless for a time or banish him completely from our world. Both
options have happened elsewhere on different worlds, hopefully he can
be driven out of ours. <=)
