The teen world expands a little bit! I spent some doodling time trying to figure Vanessa's character out.





I just spent a few days reading Wuthering Heights so you should see some comics about that soon, whenever I can get that Kate Bush song out of my mind!

There is some news in the store!

The Mile High poster is for sale!




hot action!!

Now that song is stuck in my head. "Ooo-oooh dreeeeeeam weaver~ I believe you can get me through the ni-IIGHT."

Great, now I'm feeling nostalgic for terrible cheesy '80s soft-rock love songs. This is what comes of being a kid during that decade with parents who listened to the radio station that played that kind of music.

"Choking on dicks forever, where did all these dicks in my mouth come from" would be the BEST musical.

I too love Vanessa.

Vanessa is my new idol, and I'm dying to see what you have to say on Wuthering Heights. Also, the song never leaves your head, ever. I think it has something to do with being so high-pitched.

i've loved every single thing you've done, kate, but i've got to say i'm not liking the implicit homophobia in this one. that automatic use of sexuality as an insult is a downer.

i know that you wouldn't have intended it and that it's rampant in society - especially among teens - and it's a fairly accurate summation of many an exchange i've heard, but it's something too many friends cop on a daily basis, and not something great to find turning up in stuff that's usually a balm to the evils of the world.

aside from the verbal content, though, everything else about the interactions and attitudes is gold.

Hey there!

These comics usually are offensive in the flippant way that teenagers can be. The initial point of these comics was to portray a sort of accurate dickhead teen, after reading some pretty boring teen detective stories. When I use 'eat a dick,' it's more about Vanessa disarming them before they can call her a slut or say that she sucks dicks or whatever. She puts them down by using the same joke they would have used on her. On top of this, she's a mean character. She'd say 'suck my dick' or whatever in the same way, and it wouldn't have been homophobic if they told her to 'eat a dick,' but it would have meant the same thing. What I mean is, it's just another way of saying 'fuck you' to these guys and shutting them up. Though I take your meaning for sure.

Someday maybe teens will start using vaginas for jokes, hey!
