<b><i>What happened. What didn't happen. And what might happen.</i></b>
2012 saw the continuation of many C.A.B. series; the cancellation of some old ones; and a few projects that just pooped out. Here's what 2012 looked like and what 2013 may bring:
<b>The Irrepressible Mr. Fetish</b>
Still going strong in 2012, Mr. F's popularity has soared, surprisingly he has many new vanilla fans on DA. So I guess that makes him a gateway drug for fetish. I'm 100% positive we will visit with him in 2013 as much as we are able.
<b>The rAnSoM Series</b>
I consider this one of my flagship series, and was well pleased with the work in 2012… 2013 should see many more delicious scenarios of tickle torture realism. Its a pleasure for me to bring these sexy vignettes to life.
<b>Sadista - 49% Sweet</b>
In 2012 I introduced this new series and this wickedly sadistic beauty quickly seduced fans from across all genres and sexual orientation. Judging by her fan mail, her popularity is right up there with Mr. F and she has taken her place among my flagship series. She is well loved and feared… which is how she likes it. We will see a lot more of Sadista in 2013… with Madam's permission, of course.
<b>C.A.B.ified Classics</b>
More than a few new Classics were explored in 2012, and I broke away from my own self-imposed rules that the series would just be takes on cartoons. This year we saw movie and T.V. charters explored. I'm sure this opens new doors for 2013.
<b>Apparatus Infernus</b>
I never expected this series to go beyond one season, let alone two, but it has become a great repository for my deviant fetishisticle day-dreams… and as long as I get snarled in morning traffic, we should have plenty of diabolically sexy machines to ogle in 2013.
<b>Doktor C.A.B.enstein's House of Fetish</b>
The 2012 Halloween season brought about this new series as a catch-all for the sub-genre of tickle torture horror/monster fetish. The result of necessity mothering invention. Interestingly, it has survived its seasonal niche, and I have plenty of work lined up for the series.
<b>C.A.B. Animations</b>
I still enjoy doing the occasional animation for my banners on the TMF, and 2012 saw quite a few new ones. There were some bigger animation projects planned but that is discussed below. I'm sure there will be more in 2013
<b>Tales of the Desperate</b>
Also born of the tickle torture / horror fetish genre; these magazine covers in the tradition of pulp and E.C. Comics will most likely continue on occasion in 2013
<b>We Have Always Been Here</b>
A very fun series for me, both as cartoonist and writer. So long as there is no shortage of world history I'm positive there will be more installments in 2013
<b>Varny</b>
2012 saw the inspired introduction of poor ol' Varny the Fetish Vampire and his debut was met with much affection from fans. I thought to expand his world but the more I thought about it, the more I thought it would be like a cheap Hollywood sequel… never coming close to the pitch perfect, self-contained original. The jury is still out on Varny… but he sleeps in a freezer and is immortal; he can wait.
<b>Legal Aged Mutant Ninja Tickling Hentai Furry Manga Tentacle Chipmunks in Socks</b>
I just can't seem to kill these 3 little peckers off. Everyone hates them, and I hate them more than anyone. In 2012 they crossed over and reeked havoc on a few of my series and even annoyed some other DA artists. Maybe I need a military surplus flame-thrower. As long as there are pretty, ticklish feet modeling in C.A.B. Labs, I don't think I can be rid of these obnoxious little fucktards.
<b><i>Projects that said "Goodbye" in 2012 or just pooped out.</i></b>
<b>"I Will Never Talk" - Flash Animation Game</b>
Another ambitious project that fell victim to time and my own programming skills. This adult flash game has you interrogating a beautiful terrorist; tickle torturing her enough to get the location of bombs throughout the city, but not too much or she passes out… all played against a timer. It turned out to be a real major pain in the ass logistically… but came close to happening. Its shelved for now. Here are some screen caps.

<b>Sub-Basement 9</b>
I tried to revive this original graphic novel into a revamped one-off pin-up series… but, it never caught fire for me. Seemed like a pale version of the origin graphic novel so I let it be.

<b>den Øgglethrümm ~ A Fetish Fairytale</b>
A big project. Lots of work. What was planned as an adult children's book style fetish morality tale… just got lost in my heavy work schedule. The story is written and ready… the art, as planned, is work intensive in watercolors. So, for 2012, it was time and elbow grease that killed this project. It may happen yet… a great story is a shame to waste.
<b>Evil Fiendish Doktor Ha: The Girl with the Golden Toe</b>
An ambitious full-length flash animation in the James Bond Villain genre that died because of time and interest. It started well, but… I only have two hands, one brain, and 24 hours in a day… and yes, I do sleep on occasion. <a href=" http://www.annoxanti.com/ha">You can see a test of the animation HERE.</a>
Many thanks to bohemianne for hosting the clip.
<b>C.A.B. & Friends</b>
Actually we had some new editions in 2012… but for the most part this collaborative series has been shelved… unless something serendipitous comes about.
<b>Graphic Novel ~ Sub-Basement 9: Dirty Work</b>
The Sub-Basement 9 characters in illustrative format. The intriguing about the inner workings of a tickle-torture-for-hire agency full of forced laughter, bondage and sex. It muted into the one-off format, then died as mentioned above.
<b>Al Shaytan ~ Graphic Novel</b>
The continuation of this most work intensive of my projects… time and interest killed it.
<b>Ceen ~ Graphic Novel</b>
The continuation of this dystopian future met with tragedy this year as the first new pages of chapter two were whipped out in a hard drive glitch. So annoyed at the loss that I never went back.
<b>The Cabin in Granville Horror ~ Graphic Novel</b>
A collaborative effort with guest artists and writers just pooped out. Shit happens.
<b>Opportunity Knocks</b>
A sketched out plan of a series of one-off panels examining real-life opportunities for engaging in impromptu tickle-torture. Sounded interesting to me and I want to see if it would have legs… it didn't.
<b><i>New for 2013</i></b>
<img src="http://imageshack.us/a/img35/1223/screenshot20121229at942.png" />
<b>Sp!ed</b>
This new one-off series in the Spy versus Spy genre features red against blue, forever see-sawing for possession of the mysterious yellow briefcase. Bondage and tickle torture scenarios abound… imagine that?
I'm sure there will also be many more unexpected surprises and side work in 2013. Thank you so much for watching… stay tuned.
