Kaptain Von?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Okay, here's the deal. Years and years ago I stumbled across the Kaptain Von comic strip (which seems to have been eaten by the Interweb, so no link here...), ending with the promise of a Part Two concerning Avalanche.

For years I thought this was just a jest. I get here and see an icon in a similar vein and style, and also referring to said Avalanche.

My apologies if my search-fu is weak, but is there any more out there?

Ta. Oh, and "greetings all". Since I'm here. And new.

They're great! Never seen them before. But unless I'm very confused, they've got nothing to do with the original Captain Von strip from UTR?

Nice Hair may well be the niftiest thing I've seen this week, thanks dudes!

As for the original Kaptain Von, nice finding: I do have a link to their previous location, but it seems to have died recently, hence my turning up here.

Cheers, all.
