Tulpa

First published in 1990 by Starhead Comix in Seattle. My guess I had 4 pages left over from Raining Quills pt. 3 and this was used to fill the space.

The June 2005 1st Danger Room Reprint Ed. had 5 pink cardstock copies and 1 regular white paper copy.

I'm not sure where this story came from. Maybe it was a dream. Black bears are all over the place around here. In fact, McCleary has an annual bear festival where bear stew is served. Seriously.

The tulpa first came to my attention when I learned about Alexandra David-Néel, an adventurer a century ago who wrote of her travels in Tibet and India. In short, she said a tulpa was a fictional character you could visualize until it became real, but they always turned bad and then they became extremely difficult to destroy. She claimed to have actually done this.

After my experience with Morty the Dog, I know how she must've felt.
