This book collects issues 10 - 13 of the Cherry Poptart sexy comics. Also includes lots of bonus pinups, articles and an introduction written by none other than Steven Tyler of Aerosmith!
Mark Bodé (born in Utica, New York; age 57) is an influential underground comics writer and artist. He contributed to several Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stories.
Mark's father was the late Vaughn Bodé, who was known as a legend in the field, and died in 1975 when Mark was only 12 years old. Vaughn is directly referenced in the Mirage Studios short story "Fun with Guns", where Casey Jones shows Raphael a street mural he made inspired by Vaughn Bodé's art. But the mural is rapidly demolished as collateral damage in an unrelated gangster shootout that erupts soon after, prompting Casey to seek revenge.
Not that any of this series has been all that great but for a while the fact that it was new to me was enough to give me at least a bit of pleasure reading it. The joke's really getting old now though and the only reason I've continued with it at all is that there have been a few evenings when I've been very tired lately and the 5 minute reads Cherry offers are about all I've had the energy to concentrate on.
Despite that, I really don't find it funny anymore and the content seems to have lost the cute-sexy vibe it started with and moved towards something quite ugly, particularly in #13 which I thought was utter sh*t.
Cherry Poptart is 100% pure, undiluted awesome. If you're ever looking for some hot comic sex between a teenager and a dolphin, this is your book! Mmmmmmmm . . . . dolphin sex.
