Lieutenant's Prize (Light Horse and Cannon) - art and stories by Llynx Rufus

Two Historical War Time Romances in One Comic!

Lieutenant's Prize:

In 1781 - French privateers were wreaking havoc on the shipping lanes between Ireland and England. In the King's Navy, fortune and glory could to be found aboard her frigates. Ambitious Lieutenant, Quentin Howell, has just been reassigned to the Stag. Little does he know the adventure that awaits him will be more than he bargained for when he joins forces with Second Lieutenant James Hotspur. The two become fast shipmates in short order sharing the same birth, training the midshipmen for close quarter action and hardening gunnery crews for the heat of battle. When the chase for the privateer Briton ends in a draw, Howell devises a plan to clandestinely board the damaged ship, in a battle for prizes that can only be captured at sea.

Light Horse and Cannon:

When Hungarian Voros Macska (his friends call him Paprika) of the 5th Hussars wanders wounded into the Hess-Darmstadt Artillery camp, German Corporal Hans Mintz is eager to tend to his wounds using an aromatic extract from the family PFEFFERMINTZ industry. Get it? Paprika + Mintz = peppermintz? More than just clever wordplay is at stake as these two uncommon lovers share a common secret between them and the flaps of their rain-soaked military tent.
