Blunder Broad by Eric Stanton
Blunder Broad was a bondage themed adult parody of DC comic’s “Wonder Woman” that I believe ran during the 60’s (makes unsure face). Each issue featured a new scenario for Blunder Broad to find herself in some sort of S&M torture/female fighting situation.

please don’t make me go to big apple con
i totally remember the vials of blood thing and how she was portrayed as all dark and gothy for so long. ridiculous.
the same article discussed the time she made out with her brother, but probably everybody remembers that well enough without my help.
Anonymous said: What were some of your most bizarre encounters while working in a comic shop?
once in a great while, someone who basically looked exactly like this would come in wearing latex dental hygiene gloves. he had an incredible, booming radio-ready baritone announcer voice and he would call out:
EXCUSE ME
WOULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHERE YOUR
GROO COMICS
ARE LOCATED
so i’d take him over to the dark horse back issues and he’d spend an hour or two rifling through every groo issue we had (a part of the inventory that probably very rarely fluctuated), sometimes buy something, say
THANK YOU
and leave. that’s a pretty good one.
Anonymous said: Any opinion of Henry Darger?
i have this conflict with art like that, where academically i think he’s terrific, and my gut impulse is that his art is really cool, but his production came from a much deeper and more painful place than trying to put on a sexy performance for people like me, so i try really hard to be thoughtful about why i like him. and i’ll get back to you when i have a decent answer formulated.
Lala, Paranoid Apartment, 2013
I love it when artists step outside of their comfort zones and try something challenging. With this new comic from Lala, she accomplishes this by forcing herself to work with more of a structure on the page. By placing the restriction of a grid on her comic for the first time, Lala is more creative with less freedom and she excels at this. The textures and distortions compliment the ordered grid and there are often multiple, interesting visual ideas within one panel.
The story follows a woman who is crippled by anxiety, wondering what will kill her first–the ceiling caving in over her bed, the kitchen knife, the slippery bathroom floor? Her anxiety seems to manifest itself into a ghost which haunts her own apartment and the new subletter. Anxiety is a cruel beast that can feel independent from yourself–like a specter following you and taking advantage of your weakest moments. Even moments free from debilitating fear carry the possibility of a visit. This sense of foreboding is clearly displayed throughout the piece.
I’ve been following Lala’s work now for practically a decade and this feels like (another) huge step forward.
