Now that the dust has settled, what is the /co/sensus on this?
>>151024079It's very deliberate fetishbait, you cannot tell me this was made for kids who think farts are funny, this is for people who want to huff Harley's braps
>>151024079This comic single-handedly killed Harley threads on /co/.
>>151024117
>>151024079Like even if you excuse it being an April Fools' thing, the previous year's Ape-Ril Special was leaps and bounds better. Like it's not even a question.>>151024093Based on the writer's comments, I would not be surprised if that was the case. She literally wrote Harley as a fart fetishist.
looks AI-generated
>>151024079Yet another example of /co/ using its meme magic for evil. Between this and getting the Joker raped in Folie a Deux, I'm convinced that our board's particular powers cannot be used for good.
>>151024079
>>151024079Every single person involved in this should be banned fromt he industry
>>151024093Mainline Harley Quinn/Batman comic books are not written for children, they're not even sold in stores that children visit, they're direct market old grognard books.
>>151024079The most forced thing on /co/ that nobody outside of this board even knows about.
>>151024079Terrible.Even ignoring the fart material, it is a cringe comic.
>>151024079It is bad enough DC Comics made a fart comic, they also made it anti-white and woke. As if that would give the Harley Quinn fart comic any credibility.
>>151024079it stinks
>>151024079>Now that the dust has settled, what is the /co/sensus on this?The equivalent of scientists finding fecal bacteria in a fast food item.It ruined the DC brand in my eyes.
>>151024079Garbage all-around
How do I put it? It feels like a fetish comic written by someone who doesn't have the specific fetish. Like, some kind of gesture to the writer's partner who loves farts rather than for her own pleasure.
not enough people talk about harley paying plastic man to be a body suit that she just fills with farts and he just starts to enjoy it
>>151025058Wait, actually I can explain.First and foremost, a dead giveaway for fetish art is how the character in question would be consistently portrayed as either embarrassed/flustered or dominant and smug which Harley doesn't really have.But I think what really gives it away is obviously the historical figure's use and the Dutch Oven character being told that she can find a quality guy who loves her farts. A real stealth-fetish comic wouldn't have gone near this. It would have tap danced around the fetish entirely.But if the writer is doing this for someone else as some kind of gift, then the rules change. The comic doesn't exist as a 'barely disguised fetish' because the "inside joke" part of it is that it's directed at whichever partner or lover the author was aiming that messaging towards. Like "check it babe, I put your kink into my comic and had Harley Quinn say your fetish is a-okay!"That's where I feel it comes from.>>151025118See but this also plays in because the author is female. If we assume however that she actually aimed this at some guy she's with who has a fart fetish? That's where it's like.. fanservice for him.I dunno that's just my whole conspiracy theory with this thing. It's basically the author thinking she's slick and playing a "stealth voyeurism" game with whatever lover or kink partner she has whose into farting
>>151024079where the pages actually scratch and sniff? seems like alot of effort to print a terrible comic
>>151025118
>>151025330>mouth on her ass right next to her anus>asking her to fart in his mouthjesus christ i thought i saw everything bad about this comic already.
>>151025330I don't like it
>>151025220Well put, but I'm almost positive Starer made comments either in an interview or on social media where she explained this is all her. She's like really into fart humor.Fetishist? I dunno, maybe. But to me, as stupid as it is, it feels genuine.
>>151024176They can be used for good... sometimes...
>>151024079We need a comfy slice-of-life comic based around cute girls farting
>>151025991Name ONE time we've done anything positive for the world in a way that has seriously breached containment of this site.
>>151024079Fetish comic, oh and proof the comic industry needs to be torn down and start over. There is nothing to salvage if they cleared a comic like that.
>>151024079O feel like DC is trying very hard to make Harley Quinn into their Deadpool and it's not working
After this issue released DC shift into pushing Zatanna instead Harley
>>151026134like this comic? the entire thread the comic is based around?
>>151026617The fact that you screenshot this benign nothing post shows me that you spend a lot of time accruing "evidence" of whatever weird conspiracies you have about comics and women, get help anon.
>>151026765What? I made the screecap because it is a legitimate qrd of the whole thing. I was in the storytime, funniest thread of the year. Utterly disgusting, this was probably the worst part >>151025330The fact that you conclude that from this benign nothing post shows me that you spend a lot of time accruing "evidence" of whatever weird conspiracies you have about people unhappy with many aspects of modern media
I don’t mind a fart fetish comic, as someone who is a brap lover myself. My initial opinion before it came out was “fine whatever, might as well” but now I just think “wow this was bad and for nobody”.
>>151025812Her bio even lists one of her qualities as gassy, though she went on a big Bsky rant about how it's the patriarchy's fault anyone would see her fart humor as a fetish.
>>151027314your opinion is actually crucial in this topic, sgt braphog. What's so bad about it from the fart connoisseur perspective?
>>151026678I meant like a regular thing, even a webcomic would be great since Hailey Flower ended
>>151027365Not him but I can answer:characters weren't attractive, too many men farting, they were too cowardly to examine the erotic allure of farting (brief nod to joyce but the farting was mostly platonic, it would be "cute" for your partner to fart but not sexy, etc)
>>151027468>characters weren't attractiveHow so? I'd say the art style is the least of its problems.
As someone with a fart fetish there's a couple panels I find hot but even removed from that the comic is garbage in general. Art is nothing special, writing is painfully unfunny and forced, literally cannot think of a single reason anyone would get any enjoyment out of this besides jerking off to it and even then it's not great fap material
>>151027365I’m the original anon, so I guess my opinion is crucial. I feel like it didn’t get at what’s erotic to a lot of people about braps, it wasn’t funny because the dialogue was painful and unfortunate, and it just shoved too many in-jokes in for it to be tongue and cheek. I’d rather just commission someone or draw it myself.
I still think we need a Baby Doll diaper comic
>>151024093Problem is the comic isn't even remotely sexy so it fails to be a fetishbait comic. No good ass angles or anything.The comic was literally made for no one.
>>151024172It does, what the fuck is even going on with their bottoms?
>>151024079I still pray that this will be the key to killing off Harley Quinn's popularity forever
By all means this comic easily could've been top tier fart fetish fuel OR a good solid toilet humor comic but it fails to do both because the dialogue is absolutely terrible. The stilted dialogue doesn't mesh with the kind of humor it's going for.
>>151024079>baby barf green farts instead of tan/brown braps or colorless gas
>>151024079>"oh boy a officially published fetish comic. Dis iz gon b bazed">Read>*feminist nonsense*>Harley harassing her bestie over farts>Mockery of some late 1800s dude who sent fart love letters to his gf (i.e. MUH PATRIARCHY!!!)>designs are all awful unless youre into fatshit (Dutch Oven)>atomic green fart slop>nuHarleyAll i got was just a politics-laced gag comic This would have been better if they just kept the April Fools joke as a cover.
Japanese mogs /co/ once again
>>151024079I thought about buying a physical copy if only for the novelty but I don't want people thinking I have a fart fetish if I got hit by a carThe furry comics I own are already bad enough but at least that would be true
>>151024079Retarded Tumblr comic that fails to court the fellow weirdos it targeted.Hire a decent or non-meme porn artist as a director and they'll tell you what to make a successful fetish comic by visual representation.(Hint: it doesn't involve a total blahblah farting every two panels)
>>151028370Sorry, but yellow farts clear
Apologize to Soft Serve.
>>151025812Actually now that I think about it. What are the odds that the writer was a fetishist or something like >>151025220 but the artist was just doing their job.Think about it, that's the point of contention to it being a fetish comic, it's not drawn like one. Yet that could be a discrepancy between writer and artist intent.
I can now call Harleyfags brap fetishists so its worth it
>>151028636sorry
>>151028725But its written with this weird female empowerment angle of "I AM WOMEN HEAR ME BRAP!" which doesn't really sell the idea that the writer wanted a fetish comic and the artist was just drawing a normal comic without the knowledge it was supposed to be a fetish comic. I remember being incredibly disappointed when this dropped and we had the initial storytime thread and the entire thing was just nothingness. They somehow released a Harley Quinn fart comic and its unimaginably boring. How DC allowed this I have no idea.
>>151025488I wanna buy a comm of the thicc mom doing this exact thing
>>151024079I thought it was horrible enough that DC would print a full on fart fetish issue, but the actual book is so filled with obnoxious left wing moralizing that the fart fetish shit becomes the stronger and less odious (pun intended) half.
>>151025241>where the pages actually scratch and sniff? yes.>seems like alot of effort to print a terrible comicIt did cost 7 dollars
>>151024079This is the main example of why I freaking loathe modern artist and writers.Is pretty clear all of them originated from internet culture, net fetishist shit, fanfiction and Tumblr art, not to mention the woke and progressive agenda.
>>151024176>DustinWhat a lovable scamp that one is. Thank you for your work here DD
>>151024172This is actually in the comic?
