How to get your girlfriend to read comics!!

So those of you who, for whatever sordid and nerdy reason, read Marvel previews catalogs, might have noticed something. Something with boobs. For those of you who don't read the Marvel previews catalog (and I mean who does that that would be sordid and nerdy) I recreate a page for you below, behind a flist cut of some sort.

Beware!! FEMALES!! )

I randomly stumbled upon this journal and I don't even read comics (except for my brief affair with Birds of Prey), but this is an awesome post.

Reminds me of the dude who was wanking about girls getting cooties on his SyFy and just, sigh.

Ah, hello there! And thank you.

Yeah, fear of vaginas is pretty universal throughout geekdom, I've realized. I could tell you about those times I was told no girl would want to play Final Fantasy because Vincent Valentine was so manly.

Whyyyyyy.

Also, there's been like three manly men in Square's history, and Vincent ain't one of 'em.

I know, that's really what makes that comment particularly beautiful. Of all the men in Squenix's admittedly masculine beyond masculine history, they picked Vincent Valentine.

That is a fabulous icon.

ALSO I SEE YOU HAVE LEZARD ICONS can you answer something for me? Why does he look 30 in the first game and 20 in the second one? I don't understandddd.

Because VP2's artstyle made everyone look like schoolchums.

I mean, technically in VP2 he was like -300, right?

...OH! I thought it took place around the same time as the first game. No wonder I was so confused.

VP2 is a prequel!! A prequel with a twist.

Now I really must finish it! I'm on chapter 3, woe.

(I must admit that I cheered when Lezard made his entrance in VP2. He is a loveable, perverted mage.)

If you like badass Lezard moments, there are a few big ones coming up!

I think I described him once as a mixture of Harry Potter, Doctor Doom, and the craigslist "casual encounters" board.
