A man is seized from his sleep by masked men,

but this is no ordinary burglary.

The abductors can't resist enjoying the fruits of their efforts,

before finding and passing him on to a paying customer.

Anyway it's good preparatory training for him.

Sometimes 'friendly persuasion' really is the best way to get co-operation.

It takes skill to pack a double shipment in one crate, but it saves on shipping costs.

Some argue that it's also kinder to the livestock, 

giving them company and something nice to do whilst in transit. 

Sometimes the shipping arrangements give a clue to what awaits them

at the end of their journey.

Courier delivery offers the men their own compartment and the comfort of an escort.

Some men find it a genuine pleasure to be packed by a husky, man's man, like this

But with these types there is a greater risk of heads ending up at the wheelie end.

This method of delivery overseas has become more difficult with airlines cutting baggage allowances.

Electronic comforts are out of the question, of course, thanks to baggage screening at the airport.

Heaven or Hell?

The Devil's in the detail Cellar 

You wouldn't think this guy would need a knife to persuade the clerk to open the bank safe.

I'm not sure if the captive clerk is trying to distract him here or suggesting a partnership. 

The Jomsvikings (from which the Finnish artist takes his name) were mercenary soldiers from Denmark. They supposedly excluded women from their company and were fanatical about the old Norse religion. If that is true, it bodes ill for these two young men whose shaven pates suggest they are Christian monks, sworn to celibacy.

This artist has a cartoon style which resembles the comics of the mid 20th century. 

He's not ultra-flattering to his men who are often given pot bellies and wide hips.

That's probably out of habit as most of his art is about women being enslaved.

The portrayal is not meant to be sensual, but the situations he puts them in work well.

women and cross-dressing feature in most of his pictures, 

but there are hidden male gems if you are patient.
