Jucika is so frequently the writer’s poorly disguised fetish lol

I mean maybe, but you really have to contextualize the comic.
We're talking about concepts about the embracing of sexuality and attractiveness, about choice and control of ones body, at a time when sexual liberation was just barely coming onto the scene, in a part of the world which came from an extremely sexually repressive history. These comics are a huge challenge to the social authority around what is permissive regarding sexuality. They're quite revolutionary.

That is true and the way that the comic generally portrays men and women is a huge shift from the past, but it is also true that the writer is horny lmao

But also, what's wrong with being horny?

Hell yeah dude. Just like, don't wave it at people without their explicit permission.

Well that's called indecent exposure.

Nothing wrong with it necessarily

Obligatory mention that Pusztai's wife destroyed all of the Jucika originals after he died for precisely this reason.

I think he actually told Kafka he wouldn't do it

What an irrationally petty act for an unhealthily jealous person. Destroying someone's creations after they have died; that's so sick.

Ha, yeah. The artist seems to love the fan service.

I could also use some fan service. This heatwave is killing me.

Stay strong out there
Klear@piefed.world · 7 pts · 69d
I'll rather stay strong inside. Not going outside until it starts raining.

Don't shame him for having a triangle shaped penis.

Honestly? Kinda charming, specially the yellow disalignment.
