For some reason while doing these pages I forgotwhat font I was using. I then had to go back and redo all the dialogue.
I'm totally pantsing (going by the seat of my pants) this comic with no script and just a bit of an outline. About the only thing I had when I started was some fighter designs and basic rules for the league.

Much of what is allowed is judge's discretion and things will be overlooked if it promises to be a good show. Many moves are for show and not what would be used in real battle just like so many martial arts shows (like MMA and most Kung Fu movies) For example, cuts to the face in armed battle are illegal because the league doesn't want bloody faces.
Secondary weapons are often judge's discretion. Strangling and asphyxiation are Judge's discretion. Sometimes a fight will be stopped if it's not dramatic enough and usually fighters will "pass out" early just to end a fight. There is as much stunt fighting going on here as real fighting. Brutal blood sport is another league. (Interstellar League of Battle and Gladiators Unlimited League. Both have female, male and mixed divisions for pure blood baths. Neither has near the popularity of the IBGLSW)

Aluvar is another human genetic variation created in the distant past. He is a true blood sucking vampire as opposed to the carnivore human Darth Theda seen in Battle of the Robofemoids. Most all fetishes imaginable were created as variant human subspecies. Various furries and their tragic history was in the comicTales of S.I.G. Star Strip

That's background world-building stuff that'll come up as needed.
