Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I'm getting this third-hand through, like, interviews and "when Sims went crazy" articles, but isn't when he was the Pope the time he just declared he was married to a woman and then that gave him the right to rape her?

Yes. The difference between this Sims and later Sims is that at this point, that was presented as a pretty unequivocally terrible thing for him to have done.

Yeah, throughout, Cerebus is pretty much universally viewed as a loathsome character, and the magical happy ending he's shown demonstrates he'd either beat, mentally/physically torture or drive his love to suicide.

Now the love of his life being a content exotic dancer who thoroughly betrayed her ex-husband on the other hand, may be more indicative of his attitudes...

Here's Sims on Jaka from issue #114:

quote:

"I admire the character (of Jaka) far more than any of the other characters in the book. Cerebus is too much of a born loser; willfully self-destructive. Astoria is too single-minded and humourless. Lord Julius is always "on"; the Roach too out of touch with anything approximating reality, even the Elf is too mindlessly happy all the time. When I'm writing them I'm observing from a discreet distance. I'm interested, but not to the extent of wanting to have dinner with them or anything like that. Jaka on the other hand is someone I would happily spend a lot of time with. She embodies those qualities I always look for in a woman. She has a very simple way of thinking for which she is unapologetic. She's loaded with common-sense and self-confidence. She is direct and has a low threshold for bull-poo poo. She has virtually no interest in material possessions though she has an appreciation of them. She is almost certainly on the top rung of the karmic ladder and won't be back for another life-time.

Now, here's Sims on Jaka from issue #268:

quote:

"For the first time he (Cerebus) was able to see Jaka precisely as she was and as she is and as she always would be: a spoiled, myopic, insensitive, self-absorbed and self-important harlot princess (quite apart from her position in the heirarchy of the city-state of Palnu)."

and then post series:

quote:

Jaka gradually merged with my evolving perceptions of Lady Diana and Princess Diana and so became a kind fictional missing link in the long slow erosion of womanhood which began, for Christendom, with Mary the mother of Jesus, leading down, down in our present age down to Jackie Bouvier, down from there to Jackie Kennedy, down from there to Jackie Onassis, down from there to Lady Diana, down from there to Princess Diana and, ultimately—failing the sincere repentance which I see nowhere in evidence in our society—all the way down to the base depths of the Whore of Babylon and the cup of her fornications of John's Apocalypse."

Yes, the rain was a distraction. He wanted some peace and quiet and then immediately a monsoon started. Roll on snare drum.

There's only other superheroes popping in like, every other weekend with their Quinjets and poo poo. She and Ka-Zar probably bum rides back to civilization all the time just to take a vacation and take in a movie or something.

Also, wet bikini.

And Shanna's from civilization originally, so it makes sense that she'd know who actors are. Especially since Ka-Zar's a total dork for that stuff.
