No, Jim Balent has nothing to do with this


One problem facing the more curvaceous woman

Now here’s one of the reasons I shelled out five books for a subscription to Metafilter, posts like these leading me to blogs like Busty Girl Comics and cartoonists like Rampaige. I love the artwork on these cartoons, it reminds me of Chynna Clugston’s art on Blue Monday, loose, somewhat manga influenced and cute.

For all the annoyances the internet can bring you daily more faster and more often than traditional media could, you have to thank it for something like this. Fifteen-twenty years ago a series of cartoons about the real problems large breasted women face would at most have been a self published mini comic, maybe getting half a paragraph in a TCJ column, mostly gone unnoticed otherwise. That’s progress.
