huh

So I've been reading a feminist comic books blog. (As in, a feminist blog about comic books.) It's interesting! Especially this post.
In fact, I have only one serious issue – one! – with this whole book.

And that issue is that for fuck’s sake, nipples don’t work that way.

They’re huge! They’re everywhere! Not a single issue of this comic gets by without prominent nipples poking through sometimes heavy fabrics on all three of the main characters.
Fresh from reviewing bad science fiction as I am, it strikes me that hard science fiction authors (Or really, anybody who has even a basic knowledge of physics) have a lot in common with female comic book readers. They both get worked up over things that other people either don't notice or don't care about, they both tend to write long rants on their favorite topic, and they both tend to snap and go on murderous rampages through the fools who surround them at all times. Or, uh, not.
