Or, Nikki is a glutton for punishment and does not like possessing money.
Travis and I have decided that we’re going to read a few comics with female leads and analyse how they are portrayed. Okay, that is fine and good and all, but I’m already spending upwards seventy bucks a month on comics (actually, according to my bank statement, I’ve spent 120 bucks on comics the past four weeks. But I also bought a box, at least one tpb and seven back issues in those weeks – if you factor those out, it is about 60-75 bucks) and, get this, I’m freaking unemployed and just bought a car in the beginning of September. Oh, and I have about 2.5 grand in tuition due by the end of January. And I need to buy gas.
And, yet, I’ve decided to pick up four more titles for the express purpose of poking holes at (or praising) the portrayal of women in comics.
