First Catch Your Rogue - 25

 He wasn't a very good burglar.

I'm a light sleeper, but he made enough noise to wake the dead.

He didn't put up much of a fight either, I'm a big guy.

I got him securely tied up without too many problems.

To give him credit, he didn't beg me not to call the cops. 

But we both knew that was the deal on the table.

I emptied his pockets and poked around in them

giving him a clue to how he might escape my trap.

He wasn't too happy though when I started to cut his clothes off.

The only way, since his arms and legs were tied together.

He started mouthing off about how much they had cost him.

More likely he had stolen them, so I just gagged him.

He was a street-wise punk, in his mid-twenties, 

But the harsh strangeness of the fetish gag shocked him. 

The hard ball filling his mouth, the strap pulling it tight.

He knew then that negotiations were over.

I watched him squirming naked on my bed for a while,

then fetched a razor from the bathroom, a new one

I set to work clearing the fuzz on his lower regions.

I don't use foam, I like to see what I'm doing.

He squawked briefly, but knew better than to struggle,

not while I was working with the blade between his legs.

He watched me, probably wondering how to explain it

to his girlfriend and team mates in the locker room.

I cleaned away the fallen fluff with the vacuum cleaner.

Lifting his legs and teasing him with the suction tool

Then I fetched some ointments to sooth his razor burn.

And then he was finally ready for me.

I fetched my camera.

Punishment Art by 'G'

This remarkable image seems to show an athlete being punished by man who is semi-formally dressed in clothes that have a military cut. The T-shirt suggests he might be his coach or it might simply be a military undershirt. The athlete's hands are tied together and his feet, though not tied, are also close together, as if in obedience to a demand for military neatness. 

He is suspended, stretched out across his mentor's feet and a low table in a beautiful arching pose that accentuates his buttocks and conveys an impression of extreme defencelessness. The instrument of punishment is a ferocious-looking multi-tailed whip which flails in the air above them suggesting extreme anger and pain lies in store for him. In reality, the wielder is standing much too close to use it effectively, but this close positioning suggests intense, personal emotions are in play. 

The style of the image is strikingly artistic and modern with a slightly fuzzy appearance that belies the level of detail where it matters and there's a similarly loose approach to perspective. Compare with the Art of Vern Dufford

This picture is simply signed 'G' but the artist was identified as 'Greg' when it appeared in 'Mandate' magazine in 1985. Tim in Vermont website attributes it to Greg Maskwa (aka 'greg') who was certainly a contemporary. Maskwa (not previously featured here at mitchmen) was a prolific artist in the leather-rich 1980's and is probably best known for his image below called 'The Oasis'.

'greg' - The Oasis

 These two images are quite different in style but they both have been created using very distinctive, professional 'studio'  techniques. Greg did not always use his distinctive logo on his images but I've not found one that does have it with a similar style to 'G' Greg. You can draw your own conclusions about the source of the liquid spilling from the boot.

Greg - The Olympians

I haven't found any other fetish images by 'G' but this shower scene shows a similar mini-drama unfolding in the contrasting halves of a diptych. On the left two (swimmers?) are showering in a perfectly normal way with a nicely muscled, broad back on view. On the right the blond has actually removed his trunks and has attracted the attention of the third man, seemingly drawing him away from that glorious back. He spans both halves of the image with an air that suggests he is not a man to be dallied with. The faces are stylised but rather sexy.

Mitchell's Cowboy Folio 8

Mitchell - Fear The Lash

A rule-breaking cowboy braces himself for punishment.

This is based on an unfinished, very early work which in the original,

showing the subject kneeling, eyes raised to heaven, like would-be saint. 

I have substituted this cartoonised version which has a more interesting, apprehensive face.

(the original is included in the folio at Adonis Male)

Mitchell - Wagon Wheel Punishment

This picture is even earlier and even more circumspect about the fate which seems to be in store for the subject. Interestingly, neither of these images portray bondage which is a surprise to me, looking back. It seems an obvious embellishment given my track record in later life! 

Mitchell - Wagon Wheel Punishment (cartoonised) Sweaty

This cartoonised variant has given the condemned man a more sensual physique.

It suggests a sweaty struggle has taken place to extract him from his clothing. 

A necessary preparation before tying him to the wheel.

Guest (?) - Promotional Ad for Male Classics (1960's)

My original sketch was inspired by this rather beautiful drawing  that appeared in the British, 'Male Classics' range of beefcake magazines in the late 60's promoting subscriptions to their various titles. Rather appropriately it seems as if the young man in the ad is being pulled in different directions by the choice available.

My youthful imagination saw him being stretched out to receive punishment. His loincloth cum pouch in the picture looked very improvised, loose and insecure, a temporary arrangement to save his usual clothing from damage during chastisement and create a more ritualistic air. The shiny fabric had an intricate, arabesque pattern which suggested a rather superior sort of enslavement to me, one where even the servants were given panels of silk to protect their modesty. The sheen suggested a significant presence underneath.

I'm not sure what gave me the idea of pinning the unfortunate to a wagon wheel.

They are a regular presence in Western movies and TV series of course

 and I quite likely saw one being used as a whipping post at some point.

However there is also a parallel with the Royale Studio image below.

Royale Studio - Unapproved School - Part 2, No 24

At the time I drew my picture I was not familiar with this memorable Royale Studio image from 'Unapproved School' (1959), but it's hard not to make a connection. The Male Classics group who published the inspirational advertisement had been strong supporters of Royale in their heyday and produced a remarkable pictorial tribute to the Studio after it's demise (see Royale Studio Blog - Timeline article). However, I've not found this Royale image in any of their magazines that I might have seen at the time.

Mitchell - Wagon Wheel Punishment (cartoonised) Voluptuous

In this final variant, AI has produced a strikingly voluptuous body.

It's paired with a Manga-style face that seems quite incongruous to me 

but that's Artificial Intelligence for you!

The wheel has morphed into padded, fan like prop

that might have been used in a burlesque performance.

The Destruction of Channing Travolta - 3

 Continued from Part 2, or you can start reading from Part 1

Somewhat chastened by his run of defeats, Channing tones down his hair for his next fight, a return match with Max Quivers. He approaches his opponent more carefully but his character hasn't changed, as his flashy white boots suggest.  Max expects a little more respect than Channing's thinly-disguised smirk.

He makes his displeasure clear to the arrogant young man, 

using the proffered hand to pull him into a vicious knee raise.

It lifts Channing into the air and leaves him gasping for breath. 

Channing collapses onto the floor but Quivers follows him down.

He's seemingly intent on twisting Channing's head off his shoulders,

as if trying to finish what he started in their first bout, see Part 1.

The grisly reminders for the young upstart continue 

as Max switches to one of the choke holds

that he tamed him with in that first meeting.

Channing's spirit seems to ebb away.

(but I do like that groin shot!)

When Max relents, Channing is left dizzily stumbling. 

The fight has barely started, but already he is forced to crawl.

It's a humiliating acknowledgement of his inferiority.

Unfortunately, his grovelling makes his foot an easy target for Quiver's quick grab.

He twists it into a half-Boston, levering Channing's knee joint and stressing his back.

Channing whines in dismay.

One leg lever quickly becomes two, 

Channing spots the full Boston Crab torture coming his way. 

Predictably, he makes a panicky, desperate grab for the ropes.

Quivers simply yanks him back to the middle of the ring

and punishes Channing's arm joint for it's part in the cowardliness

Channing can't believe how much it hurts.

However the sight of his exposed, arched torso 

has inspired Max to give a more appropriate punishment.

Channing learns from the seasoned sadist that the sanctuary of the ropes

can also become a place of inescapable restraint,

leaving him wide open and totally defenceless against a cruel barrage of blows.

Channing bleats about the rules and Quivers sets him free.

He retreats into a corner, desperately clinging to the ropes.

The chunky hunk has been reduced to a very sorry state, 

and mealy mouthed, he acknowledges Quiver as the victor.

But it his ordeal is not yet over,  

Quivers' jacket drops on to the floor in front of him.

Channing scarcely has time to register his dismay before Max steams back in, feet first, 

Contemptuously he pins him, squealing in protest, against to the post.

Channing is dragged back to the centre of the ring for a celebratory reprise of punishment.

He's anchored there by a painful figure 4 while Quivers relentlessly assaults his back .

Endearingly, Channing endures it all grimacing in pain.

But Quivers is denied the pain fest he wanted

Channing can't (or won't) fight back any more.

It's like he's been completely squashed.

But he ain't seen nothin' yet!

Defeated Army Enslaved

Charles Gleyre - Romans Under The Yoke (1858, detail)

This image depicts the subjugation of an entire, defeated army. 

The muscular soldiers have been stripped of their uniforms and armour.

Reduced to loincloths, their hands are tied behind their backs 

and noose collars of enslavement have been put round their necks.

The entire army was forced to pass under a yoke,

 symbolically bending their heads to acknowledge their failure

and the superiority of their captors,

 who flogged them as they ducked to pass through the arch.

In the full size image of this picture, the artist sought to heap further embarrassment

on the captives by surrounding them with jeering children and choirs of celebrating women.

It's an 19th century work but those sullen, masculine faces and muscular physiques 

still reach out to us across the chasm of time. 

Sadly that homoerotic tang is absent from other, grand works by Gleyre, 

but some have an unexpectedly modern, surreal quality,

Look for 'Egyptian Temple' and the fantasy world of 'Lost Illusions'.

In this image of the scene the captives are tethered together, like oxen. 

This illustrator seems to have heavily based his work on Gleyre's compelling image

But, he's accorded the captives more modest attire, Victorian style.

Another image of the scene shows a captive stripped completely naked

and his clothes and possessions being looted by the captors.

Other artists have imagined a less graphic format to the humiliating submission

with the 'yoke' merely symbolic, the arch actually made from the captor's spears.

However, the flimsy shifts worn by the captives here are scarcely better than full nudity

The depiction is highly sensual and the 'horns' of the aggressive captors

add a threatening tang of sexual domination to the army's subjugation.

~

The event that inspired these images was the ancient battle of Caudine Forks (321 BC)

It wasn't really a battle at all.

The entire Roman army was decoyed into a trap by the Samnites.

Bottled up in a canyon, they surrendered without a fight.

That's humiliation enough for any seasoned soldier.

Samnite Re-enactment Fan

I doubt that the Samnite warriors ever looked quite like this!

But that short tunic and bag dangling from his belt

might have been a useful distraction during close combat!

Art by Aizenhower

In this article I have gathered together a selection of work attributed to Aizenhower which I just happen to like. He seems to have an amazing range of styles and I don't claim this to be a comprehensive or balanced review. The titles are mine, generally his own simply provide names of the fantasy heroes depicted, rather than the subject matter.

Shower Stud

Shower scenes have always been meat and drink to the soft porn industry and it's usually a private place for reflection and the release of personal tensions, but there's a hint of  'Psycho' about this image. The strong, chunky hunk washing his hero-length hair unexpectedly shows a sexy vulnerability at being disturbed, vulnerability verging on panic .

Behind Bars

A hero's life is not all steamy, but there's plenty of sex. This one faces the double jeopardy of being tied up and locked up in a cell at the mercy of his captors. However, he must surely have consented in some way to this arrangement to be exploited by a guard through the bars of his cage. Possibly it's a ploy to escape, worth the teeth-gritting unpleasantness, but his bushing cheeks reveal that it's still an affront to his self image. It's a great picture.

Double Trouble

It's not clear whether this is a captivity situation but it does look as if the man at the middle of this trio is not very happy about being fought over. His paler skin colour seems to suggest innocence and softness, desirable qualities that are amplified by the vulnerable position they have put him in. One of the two men fighting over him seems to be the muscular hunk from the shower (above) and he has a similarly confused expression here. The third man seems to be a lot keener on sharing (or acquiring) the prize, definitely up for it you might say. He has a curious, old-fashioned moustache that used to be the sign of a foppish cad. 

Chained up and Open

Almost the same position of vulnerability but the addition of restraining chains and a bare, supporting shelf transforms it into a more intense situation. Tom of Finland almost invented this image back in 1970, giving it a disarmingly whimsical treatment (see below). Aizenhower's captive has a more modern appearance and a more serious expression at the prospect of initiation into the dark mysteries. 

Tom of Finland - Biker chained to a wall

 Tom of Finland's interpretation is surprisingly frank for it's time.

Typically, it's full of ambiguity and improbable body positions. 

But there's a distinct sense of a man getting his comeuppance.

Butt Machine

The initiation of the novice continues. 

The impersonal power of the machine is somehow more daunting than even the most intimidating of men. More exciting perhaps if you've taken the dare, but terrifying if you haven't.

Morning Wood

Beds are like showers, they are normally a place of safety, 

a place for recharging batteries and relieving of tension.

But like Showers and Psycho, there's an exception to every rule.....

Medical groping

An appointment at the clinic turns into something else. 

I can't understand why this man is complaining!

This is the sort of carer we'd all like to have.

Milking Therapy

Alone with the machine, this patient might wish the hunky medic was back. This milking device is clearly designed to extract more than a small sample. I love the bubbling flask of accumulating discharge in the foreground. The pressure gauge emphasises the intensity of the process and, like the butt machine, it's completely impersonal and unresponsive to appeals. Interestingly the patient is not restrained but there comes a point in this process where he's no longer in control anyway.

Big as an Arm

This more-stylised cartoon uses a similar characterisation of inexperience to the trio picture at the top of this post. The humour here has a tang of truth about it and harks back to the 'It's Gonna Hurt!' porn genre that enjoyed a vogue a few years back until realisation dawned that it was mostly clever camera work and the innocent-acting model on screen didn't find it anywhere near as daunting as the viewer. Which is not to say they weren't bring stretched!

Rugby Tackle

The artist uses a completely different style here and has created a remarkable sense of movement and drama. I'm a fan of rugby imagery and this takes all those pulled shorts pictures to the hoped-for next stage where the tackler grabs his opponents tackle. Aizenhower has captured the stereotypical, physical character traits of rugby players but I suspect the horrified expression of the tackled man is wishful thinking!

Big man spanked

The ability of cartoons to express movement makes them a good medium for spanking imagery and it also defuses the violence. That sense of comeuppance is evident again here where a big man has been stripped naked and is receiving a punishment that's turning his backside as red as his hair. If he has a fiery temperament it's not helped him and the man who is taming him has a youthful look and devilish grin that adds insult to his humiliation.

Underfoot

This character, another conspicuously large man, is shown suffering a more subtle and arguably more profound humiliation. He's been forced to kneel completely naked before robed men who might be part of some mystical order, Samurai perhaps. They contemptuously rest their shoes on him, prod him and cruelly expose his sexual enjoyment at being dominated by them.  

The Samurai's Pleasure

Samurai Warriors are a class apart and not renounced for their kindness to defeated enemies. This image is based on a character called Samurai Champloo whose name apparently means 'making it up as you go along'. That has an ominous ring for this prisoner who can expect anything to happen to him.

Sweaty Lovers

A more conventional statement to end on. The cartoon technique is able to add a little extra via the facial expressions and profuse sweating.
