Excellent!
Oh yeah, tactical acumen is SO sexy. Competence porn is the new hotness.
Also I noticed his feet never seemed to grow with his… uh… “heroic proportions.”
_Ouch_. Maybe dude should take a load off for a while.
….I am intrigued about Little Sappho’s “idealized appearance” (Ultra-femme? Mega-butch? LITERALLY PIXIE-ISH!?*) but really whatever she’s comfortable with is what’s probably best in the sum of things. Long hair is such a pain.
*little Tinkerbell LS would be entirely too squee-worthy.
(sorry for the double; this occurred to me after the first post)
Actually there’s a fine metaphor at play as well in that The Objectifier’s ludicrous perspective’s on what’s ideal are doing him no favors either.
Fashion disasters aside he’s clearly wrenching himself farther and farther from his own identity and it very much suffering for it.
What we’re seeing is a literal expression of his own self-loathing. I have few doubts that if LS or GS were in the same position they’d be changing very little with each repeated Gaze exposure.
The Objectifier probably exists because he’s a such a tragically lonely/failed/horny person normally. That’s not a total failure if it leads to personal growth and expansion (like the pains of leaving adolescence), but when those stresses sour the results are frequently (and here I speak of The Real World) tragic and occasionally sincerely monstrous.
For what it’s worth, penis size is subject to random factors, but is otherwise correlated to HEIGHT.
A 7 foot man is more likely to have a large penis than a 5 foot man. Also just as likely to have big feet, big hands, etc. A short guy with big feet, just means he has big feet.
Ugh. I can’t even tell from looking at the last panel which part of him is which. It also looks as if those spikes are coming out of his skin, too. At this point, I’m not sure if dying from massive organ failure is even an option any longer. It looks now as if he’s going to explode and that will be messy. 😛
Why, it’s almost as if attempting to attain a physical ideal is harmful or something!
Anyway, just out of curiosity, because some people like to claim that the muscle-bound look is exactly the same as the chainmail bikini (and so shut up about how ridiculous and demeaning the chainmail bikini look is), are there any androphiles around here who are lusting after Mr Objectifier in his current state?
I’m the worst! Sorry for the long delays between comics — after I assured everyone that wouldn’t happen again. I’ve had to prioritize “real” work (i.e. stuff they pay me for). But I’m working on a new comic for you right now, I promise!
Man, LS is taking charge in this arc. She’s even busting out the evasive maneuvers GS never can seem to get down. That and all the uncontrollable ridiculous posing? This has to be pretty mortifying for her.

Of course not, dude’s a Liefeld parody.
Oh, no doubt.
He’s at at least 500% Liefelidization right now.
All he’s missing is an unusual number of fingers…
I wonder how many teeth he has now.
And a gun the size of his torso.
His feet don’t grow.
Heh heh, we know what they say about shoe size.
That the people who think penis size is related to foot size are the same idiots that think intelligence is affected by hair colour?
I don’t think anybody really thinks that about foot size. It’s just an old joke.
Yeah… I think my favorite is:
“You know what they say about men with big hands and big feet, right?”
“Yeah: Big gloves and big shoes.”
Rather weird for Jerden to make that comment than.

Well, at least he’s (hopefully) gotten rid of the pouch-codpiece now. That was kinda disturbing.
I only clicked “Post” once. How did that double?
Not sure why it happened, but I deleted one of them for you.

Called it!
Cube/Square law.
His mass increased faster than his ability to support it.
Now she needs to force him to untransform everyone including herself.
Don’t forget purple guy.
Now we’re truly getting Liefeldian. And truly frightening.
See? This is what happens when you eat to much hormone modified beef.
By now, he IS hormone modified beef.
Leifelding himself to death. If he does die, I nominate him for a Darwin Award. What horrible, but appropriate, way to go.

Your comment made me think of this article, which had me laughing for days:

Augh! I ruptured my giggle spleen!
I hurt… but I think I needed that article.
Uhhhh…..eww? I wonder if he can even move. :/
I don’t think he can. That may be problematic for him.
Oh please, oh please, oh please, oh please can we get a new page? I’m loving this arc, but it’s coming up on a month now. I hope all is well.

The “real” stuff *has* to take priority, I know that one. 🙂 Good to know you’re working on it! Happy for all you can get to. Thanks!
