Wow, that guy in the video is an angry, angry man. How dare these people react to an obviously sexualised image?Lugbzurg said:Yeah... there's another side to this story.

Funny stuff. But also tragic since he was, for a time, the face of comic books. God that is some ugly ass art.Jux said:If you like that, you might also enjoy eschergirls.QuietlyListening said:I find this to be endlessly hilarious. I cannot get enough of it. Enjoy!
Or, if you just like making fun of bad comic art in general, there is an endless supply [http://www.progressiveboink.com/2012/4/21/2960508/worst-rob-liefeld-drawings] of Rob Liefeld [http://www.progressiveboink.com/2012/6/14/3084348/the-second-40-worst-rob-liefeld-drawings] art to make fun of.
I can't understand how some of those poses can be considered sexual.Gamer87 said:Wow, that guy in the video is an angry, angry man.

I look at the Hawkeye initiative for the lols, but you have to admit there is a sad truth here. I don't think the images in the hawkeye gallery portraying "empowered" women as pure sex objects with strange anatomy is something those feminists just made up.
I dont really see much of a political message behind them. The only real one in the pictures is that male and female characters are portrayed in a different fashion, which also involves sexuality/sexual potency and symbols thereof and that it looks absolutely hilarious when the genders are changed while the poses remain the same. Thats neither something unnatural, nor surprising, nor wrong.Mikeybb said:Lugbzurg said:Yeah... there's another side to this story. It's not as black and white as you think.

I don't visit the site for that aspect of it.
Yeah, there's a larger point behind the work at the Hawkeye intitiative as a satirical look at the way woman characters are presented, but at the same time they do make me laugh.
Even when I see situations like the amazing spider butt come up, it doesn't detract from some of those covers being genuinely funny.
Alright, a short explanation; a good majority of all the art is either for stick figure/horribly made bodies or for over sexualization. Like most social movements/expressions most of the artists involved have different reasons for joining.Mikeybb said:I can't understand how some of those poses can be considered sexual.Gamer87 said:Wow, that guy in the video is an angry, angry man.

It's more like witnessing human origami.
Great site anyway.
I get the satirical point behind it and if there wasn't a point to be made, there wouldn't be enough material for them to work with.
Even so, more power to them and more laughs for the viewers.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who just saw Jojo poses looking at these.Auberon said:Sorry, there already exists FABULOUS manga which puts this to shame. As everyone should know, it is called JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
Assuming you mean, 'None of the art depicted by fan artists show men in a seuxally positive light to females' then you've already discovered part of the point: Girls get sexy and next to no physical decency, guys get...character and full body outfits. Grand.Queen Michael said:It's good for a laugh, but it fails at making a serious point. I've seen other "What if male heroes were as sexualized as female heroes" drawings, and let's be honest, ghouls and boils -- none of them even try to show what it would actually look like if comics creators made a serious attempt to turn Spider-Man, Batman etc. into manservice.
