Underground Comics.... wow...

In the past year I've really gotten into graphic novels. When hearing the term "Underground Comics" I had no idea what it was. But knowing what underground music is - I did expect some explicit material.

Just not at the level that I would assumed.

Underground comics are incredibly sexually explicit and can qualify as porn really. Not only that, there is drug use and other things that I've never seen in the average graphic novel in a book store. Sure, some of these in the book store do have nudity and gore, but as nudity goes it only what one could see in a figure drawing class. In underground comics... there's insertion and any adult practice that goes on in the bedroom - fetish material included. Yes, these comics file under "anything goes" it seems - yes there is even a comic series titled "Tits ans Clits". Offensive to many (not to mention most of the art is poor quality), yes - but for many of my classmates as well as myself- they are so offensive and sexually explicit that we just find them to be downright outlandish and, admittedly, hilarious. Taking a good hour to read through a few of them - I found myself laughing over and over and shaking my head in disbelief. The ridiculousness was actually - enjoyable. I could do without the porn though.
