Sam Kieth:

Comics can idealize, but also … reflect too.

It almost seems a weird thing to keep editing quirky or pudgy things out of a creator owned comic, almost weird NOT to add flab or flaws. It’s almost a denial of what makes us human.

 SCREAM this is such a lovely post, and that page with the ‘list of taboos’? reminded me of just why i love drawing larger people. of course, being a fat girl helps with the observing stuff and, as this artist says, wanting to see more people who kind of look like me, but really. more representation of more different body types in comics/art in general, please. i fucking hate it when someone makes the ‘it’s not aesthetically pleasing’ argument as if aesthetics = euclidean geometry.
