JUNE OF ARC concludes in a harrowing finale!

I really enjoyed drawing St. Joan of Arc cartoons this month, so thank you all for humoring me!

If you enjoyed them too, maybe we'll do it again next year.  We've only scratched the surface of her amazing story!

___

JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. Camp-followers were women who followed armies around to make money off the soldiers when they stopped for the day.  They were prostitutes with bad prosti-'tudes, man.  Other people might follow the camps for good reasons (like cooks and priests), but not these ladies. 2. This cartoon is based on witness testimonies from those closest to Joan.  According to them, her response to camp-followers was absolute.  She kicked out any harlots she found, sometimes with gentle admonitions, and other times with the flat of her sword. 3. I've heard some people question Joan by saying, "She's not very Christian.  Jesus WELCOMED prostitutes."  Yes, Jesus welcomed prostitutes.  REPENTANT prostitutes, who He forgave and then told, "Go and sin no more."  He had a very different reaction to the money-changers in the temple.  They disrespected His Father's presence, so He chased them off with a homemade whip.  Joan's mission was to guide her army in God's Name.  She worked hard to make her men go to Mass, receive the sacraments, and adopt behavior befitting servants of God.  Like the money-changers, the prostitutes mocked God's presence by their actions and intentions.  So, like Jesus, Joan drove them out.  Her only fault was not knowing how to fashion a whip of her own, to make the parallel more plain for her SLANDEROUS, PULING critics! 4. "This is a wholesome Christian war-camp!" is a play on the well-aged meme of Christian Minecraft servers, where you can't swear or post naughty things. 5. "I'll make you marry the next man I find you with!" is an actual threat Joan used, according to one witness during her Rehabilitation Trial. 6. "Walloping" is a good word.  Catch me outside. 7. I like drawing Joan and La Hire next to each other because she's so tiny.

No but the tax evasion thing I was literally told by the priest I work with that he sometimes feels like he's gonna fall asleep in confession but when someone mentions tax evasion, he's like 👀 you don't hear that every day tell me more (well that's basically what he said)

God gives His toughest battles to His most authentically and unapologetically carnal, hedonistic, and unhinged soldiers and forever blesses us for it. I said what I said, if you even care, that is. ✝️

Peter has a breakdown.

___

JOKE-OGRAPHY: In John's Gospel, John refers to himself as "the disciple whom Jesus loved", which makes it sound like Jesus didn't love the others.  I doubt that implication is intended, but I can't help characterizing him as a bit full of himself because of it.  In the story this is based on, John talks about him and Peter running to Jesus's tomb.  He makes sure to mention he got there before Peter, but that he let Peter go in first, so he's more athletic than (but still very courteous to) his crusty elders.  The story sounds like John is bragging or subtly insulting Peter for being slow, so in this cartoon, I've dialed those implications up to 11.  Perhaps this is an earlier draft of John's Gospel... before Peter gave him an editorial review.

Haha...Michaelmas commemorates the casting of Satan out of heaven, and was (by reason of date) associated with the change of season from summer to autumn?

Call that...

Call that the start of the Fall 🥁
