A one-page comic strip by Vaughn Bode from the Deadbone Erotica series.

Quoting Vaughn Bode in the Vaughn Bode Index:
“This was satirically inspired by Dean and Gerda Koontz.”

According to Mark Bode:
“…dedicated to Dean and Gerda is this strip Bean Gerbil and Porn it sums up their friendship at the time both working for the raincoat crowd.”

Ok, this technically isn’t a book, but a cartoon strip, but I didn’t want it to get lost in Appendix G.

With the advent of easy digital self-publishing through platforms like Amazon.com, a significant number of low-quality, poorly-formatted, and inexpensive (mostly $0.99) eBooks, seemingly designed to create an easy income for the compilers, are available for sale online. I list them here purely for reference purposes only and do not personally recommend them.
