Red Sophia: Enough talk, you short grey celibate! What do you think of...these!I realize that comic book characters have to maintain consistent costumes for branding reasons, but honestly, if there's snow on the ground and it's cold enough to see your breath, wouldn't you want to put on some pants? And a sweater?
Cerebus the Aardvark: They'd probably heal if you stopped wearing that chain mail bikini.

And what would you have had Red Sophia wearing for this scene?
ReplyDeleteNow, you see, this is a complicated comment to answer. The woman in the illustration is actually Red Sonja, a semi-Conan spinoff (semi because she was a comic character rather than from the original Robert E. Howard stories) - Red Sophia is a parody of Sonja who appeared in ANOTHER comic book - with an aardvark.
ReplyDeleteClear as so much mud, I'm sure.
Regardless, I stand my ground - she should put on some nice warm breeches, a fuzzy sweater - SOME CLOTHES, DAMNIT, IT'S OBVIOUSLY FREEZING! WHO WEARS NOTHING BUT A CHAIN MAIL BIKINI WHEN THERE'S SNOW ON THE GROUND!!!
