My God, what have I said now? - from RCBz


Another fun and elaborate postcard from RCBz, I was missing them. East and West are never far apart in RCBz's world, trying to cope with each other when not battling. The card and its back side have a strong comic strip flavor, but the theme is actually very Japanese. "Mistaking Kinbaku for Bunraku can be socially awkward". Oh yes. Let's just imagine... Bunraku is traditional Japanese puppet theater (the puppeteers are present on stage and dressed in black. If they are very good you completely forget about them during the play). Kinbaku on the other hand is... Japanese erotic bondage. I promise I'll be careful when choosing my entertainments :-))
This is a great card that successfully combines conceptual and aesthetics (I also noticed a subtle reference to the triptychs on the border of the card, am I right?).
PS* And I saw on RCBz's blog that this was the last card he sent out before the lights went out in one of his eyes. He has done a few more since then and I hope he will fully recover.
