I really feel like people didn’t give the Barbie comics a fair chance.
So… Is this the end of the OBJECTIFIER? Hopefully he won’t figure out how to unfasten that strap, and the world should remain safe from distractingly excessive boobage. For a while.
Hey! Don’t forget to CHECK OUT MY PATREON. You can help me make more & better comics and also get bonus content and other cool stuff.
It’s….probably for the best.
And maybe he could start a Barbie Fashion blog?
I think the cup is half full, not half empty. Or, y’know, “over-flowing.”
If it were up to me I’d keep this guy’s internet privileges limited. But a Barbie Fashion blog? That would be acceptable. With supervision.
ow, that pun hurt.
I say you’re too kind ms Cohen.
Room 101 for him… and then some rats…and…
One would think there would be more than a few ultra feminazi’s in this same prison, and the Barbie comics [and perhaps a few GI Joe’s thrown in for balance] a form of torture for them. Doctrinaires come in all persuasions.
I believe that Rebecca Cohen has already done up plans for a TERF’er.
you didn’t know?
only men can be sexist it seems.
Yes because men aren’t oppressed. They’ve got the most power,at least white men do,and make substantionally more money.
But wait – isn’t Barbie pretty much the definition of distractingly excessive boobage?
Not really. Unrealistic body proportions, definitely (e.g. tiny waist). But she’s not usually sexualized nor much emphasis put on her boobs.
To date, I have never seen a 5 year old girl playing with a Barbie doll take out a measuring tape, pencil, lined paper, and a calculator and begin extrapolating what she thought her physical proportions should be when she grows up.
I did see one say something to her Barbie doll, to the effect of, “Mommy says you’re bad ’cause you’re too skinny.” and promptly pull the doll’s head off.
I was terrified.
How much time is there between panels 3 and 5?
That is a punishment yo fit all crimes.
The prison is in Quebec?
Assuming that the visor unfastens in the same way as a bra strap, he’ll probably remain imprisoned forever.
lol
Anyone else notice the name of the facility? ‘Criminally doctrinaire’ – I can see that as a place for locking up heroes and villains both.
It’s the “criminally” part that makes the difference.
It looks like Blue Sun girl still has her pink eyes. Does this power eventually wear off or is she stuck with it? Here’s hoping she doesn’t take it into her head to start changing the shoes of women around her.
Oh dear god! Not the Sensible Shoes Slugger?!
Or the Birkenstock Basher, master of the art of Shoe Fu.
Fear the power of Points-out-gaping-logic-holes Lass!
She needs a superhero name. “Positive Representation Lass” doesn’t have much of a ring to it.
Since our pink-eyed Browncoat has proven she has tremendous control over her abilities, I wonder if she could use them to remove his powers, and her own (since the comic has already proven that you can use reflected power to change yourself).
Just a thought!
Erg, Barbie. Killing people via anorexia since 1959.
That’s a bit harsh. Barbie’s proportions may be unrealistic, but when it comes to body image there are way worse influences in the world.
He-man poisoning young boys with steroids since…whenever that show started.
Troll harder dude.
Well he wanted to fight for truth and justice http://www.gynostar.com/archives/comic/first-things-first and ended up in prison. So the in universe judicial system is just as effective as that in what we call the real world.
Hey, any port in a storm, bub. Enjoy your stay!
