cartoon by Leah Rosenthal
Note: This image has been marked as sexually explicit and has been minimized. The majority of MUNCLE art was non-explicit. This drawing by Suzan Lovett is the exception; however, in spite of the explicitness the image carries a sense of sadness and melancholy by having Napolean reaching out to gently comfort a tense Ilya.

[Forever and Ever... Amen]: Doyle shows up at Bodie's apartment in Paris 8 years after leaving CI5 and disappearing. A former enemy is out of prison and wants to kill them so they team up to thwart him. B had been married and had a son but is divorced. D is reluctant to answer questions. He had wanted to hide from B but B was looking for him so he could only do menial work and had to keep changing jobs. He finally resorted to becoming a fence for stolen art work and is rich now. B won't rest until D tells him why he left. D had been in love with B but knew B had been raped in Africa; he thought B would never accept his love so he left because he thought he could never have B. B is angry. He tells D he loves him and D only had to ask. They have sex but the next morning D leaves. D thinks he can't drag B along into his murky life and maybe get him killed. B returns to Paris but is depressed; he decides to find D no matter what. Just as he is leaving his apartment D shows up. They make up, realizing they must be together. [1]

Reactions and Reviews: Issue 2
Night Of The Cat by Caroline Dare: Post Private Madness. The lads lust after each other but won't say anything. Each goes home after the events at the reservoir but Bodie can't stay away from Doyle. He climbs onto D's roof and looks through his skylight where he sees D naked on his bed masturbating. D is fantasizing about B. B loses control and imagines himself as a great cat. He leaps through the skylight and attempts to rape D who weeps. B comes to his senses, backs off, and he weeps. They make love and spend the night together. The lab report to Cowley says that even a drop of ADX can be absorbed through the skin and cause hallucinations.High Stakes by Bettina Sheets: Bodie has lusted after Doyle ever since they had once gone to bed together when drunk. B wins a poker hand where the bet was that Doyle must go to bed with him willingly. Hot sex ensues. B finds out that D really had won the hand but had folded because he wanted the sex too. They decide to try a relationship.
A Statement Of Affairs by Gloria Lancaster: Told from Doyle's point of view as he reminisces about his affair with Bodie on Cowley's wedding day. D loves B but B doesn't love D; they just have great sex. The lads are assigned to protect a woman; C falls in love with her. D visits her and they talk about their loves. B is jealous. B usually tops but lets D top. During the act D thinks he sees something different in B's eyes. Maybe B loves him?
A Teddybare Tale by Caroline Dare: Doyle tells Bodie a bedtime story about Goldilocks and the Three Bares. Very cute. [2]
