I’ve actually been on the verge of taking this comic down in the years since posting it. But I’ve talked it over with a few people and apparently I’m being oversensitive, so for that and various other reasons it stays.

The problem I had is that the comic appears to rely on violence against women for the sake of a punchline, which is not what I’m about. However nobody I’ve shown it to reads it that way. Also, a friend of mine convinced me that it’s more important to chart your growth and changes as an artist than to try and censor or bury work that for one reason or another you aren’t proud of.

So, my fears about this comic have been allayed. [April 26, 2011]
