5 | Zombie Tramp |
One of the most obnoxious things on the Comic-Con floor was zombies. You literally couldn’t turn your head without seeing somebody trying to cash in on the undead. And sure, some of the stuff was great – The Walking Dead, for instance. But for every Walking Dead you have a Zombie Tramp. You see, it’s a zombie, but she has huge tits. That’s what’s passing for innovation these days.
4 | My Little Brony |
The insane Internet popularity of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has surprised every right-thinking person in the world, but now we’re stuck with it. And when something is popular, you bet your ass somebody, somewhere is going to make porn out of it. My Little Brony is exactly what you would think it would be: gender-swapped anthropomorphic ponies in dazzling rainbow colors banging the crap out of each other.
3 | Gods Love Is Like A Conjoined Twin |
So this looks like it would be a wacky sort of underground comic thing, the kind of strip that the free newspapers with the “massage” ads in the back would run. Peep this, macaroon: this is a 100% serious Christian comic. Full of deeply weird two-page comics about such immortal characters as “Meatman” and Ninja Food Boy, it’s like Jhonen Vasquez’s parents actually managed to deprogram him before he got famous. The combination of wacky random-access humor combined with Bible quotes is not something I’d ever thought I’d see.
2 | Lionman |
We can't be too down on Lionman (full title The Legend Of Lionman And The Seven Kurodos). That's probably because creator Eric "Lionman" O'Neal could beat us insensate if he wanted to. Lionman is a hilarious and bizarre melding of superhero normalcy and martial arts discipline, and it's just so earnest that it's hard to take seriously. Take character Ujamaa - his animal persona is that of the bobcat, and of course his code name means... cooperative economics. It's also supposed to be the first of a staggering twenty-eight graphic novels, which is intense.
1 | The Virgin Project |
So this is a collection of stories about the first time you got laid. I guess that could be hot, except for the fact that the first time you get laid is always awful in every way. It's 144 pages long, which by my math is enough to print 576 complete comic stories about losing your virginity. But the real zinger that put it over the top was the sign at the table asking people to send in their own virginity loss stories. Guys, this is Comic-Con. You'd have better luck getting those at a convent.
