Yeah, MRA's always have a problem with this comic. Something about women taking control over their sexuality that really pisses off the ignorant shits.

Or the fact the art looks like it is something out of a horror film?

lol

You've... seen the faces in this comic right? There's other reasons.

Greg land and rob liefield still work in mainstream comics.

Homestuck is a popular series.

Have you seen the early penny arcade comics?

Bad art is not something that usually get's this reaction.

Legitimately, there's something about this art that's bad and unsettling. Early Penny Arcade is just amateurish, Greg Land is just bland and unoriginal, and Homestuck is at least a style. This is just... guh.

Also, from my very brief and long ago reading of the comic, I remember the writing being pretty bad.

Bad art always gets that reaction from me. I frankly have no interest in reading a comic that's not aesthetically pleasing, or at very best, neutral. Ugly art is an instant pass for me, I don't care how good the comic is.

dude people make fun of greg land and rob liefield ALL THE FUCKING TIME. For fuck's sakes, I've heard people wish that they would straight up die.

um, yeah it definitely is. i outright refuse to watch or read anything with bad art, sometimes to the point of getting angry/offended about it if it's a successful series, lol.

for example, i don't know what this is or what it's about, but i completely understand OP's reaction solely based on the art. :(

Greg Land and Rob Liefeld actually draw better then this (though they get tons of shit, so this argument is kinda invalid?)

The colors in homestuck are beautiful.

I will freely admit that Penny Arcade probably shouldn't exist.

This art however, is worse then all of the faults of the others combined.

Though the "make the faces" meme is it's one redeeming value

There's something about this that makes me feel as though the bad art is meant in an offensive way, though. That it's ugly on purpose and whether the intent may be funny or ironic, it's far from either for me; on the contrary, it just feels creepy and vaguely exploitative.

Okay, there is bad art that is charming or cute in it's own way. Art can be endearing even if it's bad.

That is not the case with the art in OP. It's downright unsettling.

Also last time I checked people mock the shit out of Liefeld's art all the time. I don't know how he gets work in that field when his art is pretty much a joke.

it's more that with a comic like homestuck, the art isn't as important as the story and homestuck is a very story driven comic (although there are some pretty cool animation parts). sure, there are still some people who can't get into homestuck because of the art but most of the fans are in it for the storyline. the thing with moon over june though is that it's a porn webcomic and if your porn comic doesn't have sexy art, then that prevents a lot of people from enjoying it and of course people will make fun of the goofy art because it's not titillating. if homestuck were just a run of the mill porn comic without the plot that it has, then it probably wouldn't have done very well due to the art style.

liefield and land gets ton of shit for their art btw. like, so much shit. they have entire memes centered around them

Sorry, Noodle-Bro, you like Homestuck, your opinion is invalid.

If the art was objectively bad, I doubt the fandom would be so huge.

0/10

Yes. I am a MRA. I don't see the connection, tho.

Lol you are not. I don't believe for a second that an actual MRA would come here.

not and say so upfront, at least.

lol you're neither the OP nor an MRA

5/10 for being way too obvious but making me laugh way too hard

Nice try, but this comic is written by a man who doesn't even understand how lesbian sex works. It's lesbian fetishization porn.

And is also terrible for reasons that have nothing to do with it being written by a man or being fetishizing, to be clear

Their faces just look hella disturbing, anon.

I have never seen this comic before, and I find the art so off-putting that it is REALLY not hard for me to believe that someone would dislike it for reasons other than women taking control over their sexuality.
