Sad thing is, Sinfest used to be genuinely funny.

Yeah, now it's just gotten shrill.

Agreed. It's not even that I mind him getting into Radical Feminisim so much or using his comic to soapbox. Not my thing, but whatever. I just wish he had ended his comic to do it. There are a large volume of legacy aspects cluttering up the comic creating cognitive dissonance. I mean I can't be the only person who sees mixed messages in a comic called Sinfest pushing a Radical Feminist message.

And he's doing it so badly, so hamfistedly that I keep expecting to find out that it's all an elaborate troll. I am not holding my breath though.

Hear, hear. Well said. To put it to ya this way: As you know, I like having a wide variety of artists interpret Tali, and at one point, I was considering having him do a Tali pic. Crossed him off the list some time ago.

Still follow the strip for sentimental reasons, and with the hope that he'll straighten out, but I think he's gone Dave Sim (albeit in a 180° direction).

I quit after a while, I think after the third or fouth time it was suggested that all men are deviants led around by their libido incapable of respecting women without having it beaten into them first. I go back and poke at it occasionally, to see if it's gotten any better. So far it hasn't.

The thing that kills me is that Tat CAN write compelling non-exploitation storylines. The story of Fuchsia rejecting her origin as a sexy demoness and trying to find a place for herself in the mortal world that doesn't involve sexy temptation or torturing the damned and her relationship with Criminey is actually touching and sells feminism a million times better than everything the Trike Girl and her friends have ever done. Hell, the plotline where Monique questions to what extent her use of sexuality in how she presents herself empowers or restricts her could have been done much more artfully but still is a bastion of nuance compared to the sledgehammer wrapped in a brick with "CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE" written on the side hucked at your forehead that is the message you get whenever Trike Girl comes around.

Trike Girl's Rule 63 resemblance to Slick is also as subtle as a sledgehammer, methinks.

BAM! >.O

I saw this picture and went back to Sinfest to see what it's like.

That was a mistake on my part.

alas

Don't worry. It gets worse during the "Woke Wars" arc!
