Interlude: Terracciano Gets Creepier, Somehow

Before I do PvP, and yes it is coming, I thought I'd share this little lovely example of Mookie creepiness that someone sent into me.

"Her blood is slowly turning to ice, and soon it will freeze her heart. She's going to die a slow, cold death."

However, that will not stop Terracciano from slaving away drawing a Goddamn panty-shot of her. I mean, glossing over his inability to draw anything attractive (male, female, vegetable, mineral) that's some creepy shit right there. His equally-creepy fans are out there, creepily staring at the badly-proportioned ass of a dying woman. And jackin' it. Jackin' it like never before.

Anyone who had any doubts about the rape thing, he's off showing an unconscious woman as a sex object. Worse, a dying and unconscious girl. He's sexualising someone who literally cannot say no, or fight back, or resist in any way. Go ahead and tell me I'm reading too much into this (I know you will, Bobby Howard!) but that's how it is. This isn't some clumsy, shitty storyline where Terracciano gets on his stubby soapbox and tries to pretend his storebought opinions are worth listening to. This is a guy drawing upskirt ass shots of an unconscious girl because it gets him off.

Tune in next year when Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire will have the titular character jamming his multiple demon cocks into the corpses of all the girls who ever turned Terracciano down for a date as his ongoing descent into mysoginistic madness reaches a climatic orgasm of insanity and the webcomic ends when he's locked away for being too fucking creepy. Because, seriously, I know I used a metaphor on him where I called him a paedophile, but this is verging into actual sex offender territory.

Okay, next up is PvP for real, I swear. I just had to mention this first.

Why on earth are you spending so much time on Domonic Deegan (or any at all)? Do you have some personal beef with the guy? I mean, shooting fish in a barel is too kind a metaphor for how easy it is to make fun of this comic, and it's not as if there's a shortage of poorly drawn, poorly written, and more popular webocomics scraping along out there in cyber space. So why this one, particular easy target? Have you not yet realized you've spent nearly 5 paragraphs on the art alone? I'm just saying, if you're really out there to be an asshole, you might reconsider you're approach. Not that I don't doubt you just want to see how many poorly structured profanity laden pages it takes to make a population of reclusive self made artists cry, and I'm sure it's fun typing line after line of mix and match profanity just for the sake of it. I just kind of feel bad for you.
Tim said...
While Dominic Deegan remains appallingly terrible, this update was pointless. Plus, I don't think that "panty shot" was necessarily gratuitous, so this particular criticism of the guy comes off - bizarrely - as baseless.
Nick said...
Fuck ya both. After today's strip I'd cheated not to have an update.
kel said...
And THAT is why you should look to places other than superhero comics for inspiration. There are a lot of shitty one that pull this same crap. Only with Mookie it's worse because he has less sense of anatomy than rob layfeild.
Aesir said...
Weeeeell, the thing is that 'Mookie' has made absolutely no effort to improve and continually draws poorly-proportioned ass shots and the like for even the flimsiest of excuses. Judging by the Foglio-Abrams Horrible Creepy Misogynist Index, I'd say he is one creepy motherfucker.
Ben said...
"Plus, I don't think that "panty shot" was necessarily gratuitous" So it was a panty shot for plot sake? Character development? Maybe I'm just not obsessed with anime and manga enough, but I can't ever see a good reason for a panty shot. I can't imagine drawing an action scene, then saying to myself "You know what would make this scene have even more serious impact? Pussy."

You Americans creep me out
Remus Shepherd said...
Aesir, have a link to that index? I'm of the mind that one can never rag on Dominic Deegan enough. It's the most popular crappy comic out there. Others are more popular but better, and others are crappier but don't have such a large following. Deegan is the perfect storm of bad webcomics. Fire at will.
Cat Herder said...
The thing I find most hilarious is the fact that this is like the third of fourth time you've talked about this comic, but you are still apparently avidly reading it so you can talk about it some more. You are actually a fan.
Dave said...
I think you're reading a liiitle too much into this, John. Anyway, if you want to see ridiculous. Look at today's DD comic. LOOK AT IT. Words cannot describe it.
Anonymous said...
I don't quite get this one. How can it be an upskirt or a pantie shot when she's wearing neither a skirt nor panties? That's her pants...
Tony said...
cat herder: Are you illiterate? He said that someone emailed him informing him of the panty-shot, not that he'd seen it himself. Man, that's some gross shit.
John Solomon said...
"Plus, I don't think that "panty shot" was necessarily gratuitous" This is simultaneously the funniest and yet most pathetic sentence ever written in English.
John Solomon said...
Also, I enjoy making fun of Dominic Deegan because it's a terrible webcomic that has a lot of highly-strung fans who whine and cry the moment someone talks shit about their beloved Terracciano or his glorious magnum opus. Also because I get people insisting on retarded shit like non-gratuitous pantyshots. It's COMEDY GOLD.
DMC said...
I too am interested in the 'Foglio-Abrams Horrible Creepy Misogynist Index'. Because, quite frankly, I have no idea who this Abrams you're referring to is and all I know about Phil Foglio is that he has a comic called Girl Genius which a lot of people love and I've never bothered to read.
Anonymous said...
Last time I checked, a panty shot actually involved seeing panties.
Dave said...
John I still have no idea where the fuck you're pulling all these "highly-strung fans who whine and cry" from. The title of the thread about today's comic (in the Keenspot forum) is "You have got to be fucking kidding me".
Susan said...
I'm assuming that the panty shot was him copying some hentai or moe shit that was lying around, since he probably couldn't manage that angle on his own. It's still pretty messed-up looking, what with being out of perspective and scale. And the fact that out of ALL THE ANGLES that he could've used, he went straight for twat central.
Tim said...
Look, dumbass, she's just lying there. I wouldn't even have noticed the position if you hadn't pointed it out. You can't even see much. Hence why I felt the need to put "panty shot" in quotation marks.
Creighton Hogg said...
Wow, it wasn't that long ago that I said the DD wasn't as bad as you made it out to be, but the comic for 7/18/07 was lamer than the rock concert storyline; an event hitherto believed impossible by modern science. I've been reading because I've been hoping they'll cut back to Karnak eventually. I like him except for the fact that Terracciano randomly changed him from being one of the good guys who had gone crazy from being dragged into Hell, to someone who apparently deserved it for trying to kill Dominic's dad. Also, I totally didn't notice her bottom hanging out until you drew attention to it. That makes you a Bad Man.
Ricky Scibbe said...
"Look, dumbass, she's just lying there. I wouldn't even have noticed the position if you hadn't pointed it out." Look, officer, I wouldn't have even noticed she's underage if you hadn't pointed it out. I mean that's why-- wait, where are you taking me?
Jim said...
For some reason, "SuperGreg" creeps me out even more than the dying woman-ass. It's like we've gone beyond Mook's original craziness and now he's writing out his fucking childhood superhero fantasies, complete with a cape.

I don't care for Dominic Deegan one way or another. I just like reading how John Solomon's mind is so easily challenged. Gasp! No! The internet?! I got a new title for ya. See what you think... 'John's opinions are weak and no one cares' Catchy.

Are you trying to be funny? I kind of missed that if you are. Mostly you just seem really angry, which sort of confuses me.
greymatter said...
Whats really funny about John Salolame planning on doing a PVP review is that Scott Kurtz did a podcast over at Half Pixel not too long ago about how people who read comics religiously with the intent to tear them down are just as much fans as the supposed fan boys. The first step to getting help is admitting you have a problem. So c'mon Johnny, which of the of the fetishes and other such nonesense you scream about in these lame ass essays do you secretly take part in?
Anonymous said...
greymatter, you do know that you can hate something and rant about it, without secretly loving it, right? Here is a thought, and it might be too simple, and I don't have quotes from over rated web comic makers or anything but still, it might be right. Maybe these web comics just suck. Man, now if only Scott Kurtz had said that in a pod cast, I could use it as fact.
John Solomon said...
And we've reached the trifecta of "utterly retarded excuses why people cannot simply dislike something": 1. You don't draw/write/direct/act/sing so how do you know anything?! 2. You're just jealous of whatever it is you dislike!! 3. You're secretly approving of it otherwise you wouldn't be talking about it!! For a brief explanation of how none of these lines work, how about some real-world examples: "Try this broccoli." "I hate broccoli." 1. "Do you grow your own broccoli? Because if you don't then you're not qualified to dislike it." 2. "You're just jealous you're not a broccoli farmer." 3. "You have to love it if you're taking the time to say how much you hate it!" Seriously, nothing any of you morons say to try and get me to stop poking fun at your favourite shitty webcomics is going to get me to actually stop.
Sam said...
Eh, that's actually pretty innocuous compared to the ferretballesque "Rape Is Sometimes Justified" thing. I mean come on, write a paragraph every time mookie does anything even slightly dumb or creepy and you're gonna be stuck here all year.

"What was wrong with it?" *writes up a big review describing how it's limp, has shitty texture, is strangely colored, comes in ridiculous packaging, smells like ass, and tastes like it's been run over four times by the produce truck* "You just don't understand this broccoli. You think you could grow some better broccoli? You think that you could produce superior foliage?" -- TWO WEEKS LATER -- "Hey, I know you said you hate broccoli, but there's this new broccoli out that's pretty great. Everyone says nothing but great stuff about it, you should try some! It's definitely better than that old broccoli!" Repeat until a blog forums :)

First time typing here, and I enjoy the site. I roll my eyes at these webcomics and think your reviews are very entertaining. I'm not sure what everyone is so upset about. Just sit back and enjoy comical reviews about stupid webcomics. There are rarely any web comics I like, as I feel they go hand in hand with fanfics, which I can't stand due to exposing myself to the worst ever for comedy reasons. Basically the internet has given the most talentless people a chance to pretend they're creative geniuses. I find your reviews to be pretty valid. Your Shortpacked, review for example was spot on. I loved the funny bits but then groaned in agony when it would get dramatic. And this Dominic Deegan crap, which I've never seen til now is just abominable. So what other people say on here.... eh... you give me a smile at least, so cool.

I have to agree with everyone saying that this panty shot was pretty tame. But then I masturbate to tentacle rape hentai and fetish cosplay porn on a daily basis. So I assume that those I'm agreeing with do the same.
John Solomon said...
He can dish it out but he sure can't take it I can take it, sure, but it's boring to have people continually using the same "WELL WHY DON'T YOU MAKE A WEBCOMIC TOUGH GUY" line on me all the time. Or the "you're just jealous" shit. Or trying to pretend how little they care about my blog by following it religiously and posting comments ten times a day. These comments are only fun when people are trying to be smart and failing, parroting the same shit all the time is monotonous and makes the comments read like Sluggy Freelance or some shit.

I can't really tell how much you've responded to my coments. No pressure, I'm sure you've got a busy and fulfilling life and I've no reason to infer you're shying away from engaging in dialogue. I am still currious, however, as to wheter there's some point to this burried deep beneath out pooring of rage. Of course, if you just enjoy seeing your name followed by the word "shit", I've no reason to tell you that you can't. Personally I don't understand why you would want to start a blog dedicated to being angry and trying to make people angry at you, and you're writing is pathetic, but y'know, whatever gets you off. I don't really understand the being angry in the first place, but I suppose just because I'm not intensely indignant that someone would dare write something not geared towards my personal enjoyment doesn't mean that noone else can be, and I realize you don't care what people think to the point of reading their message boards to see what they're saying about you, but if you care to share you're opinion beyond labeling what's fucked up, the oppurtunity is there. Feel free to enlighten me.

Y'know, all the hatemail here just shows that webcomics artists just can't take criticism. The barbs wouldn't sting if they weren't true. Sure, Mr. Solomon's a bit harsh, but that's what you need to be in order to get the artist's attention when they're surrounded by sycophantic fanboys. You don't learn anything about your own work if you only hear reactions from people who love it.
Mahmoth said...
Out of curiosity, are there any webcomics out there you like or just won't do on here. As far as I can tell, you could write a review ripping the piss out of every comic ever created for one reason or another. If there're no exceptions, then we're probably going to be here for a long time... That said, I do actually enjoy the reviews, though might not agree with the sentiments. Rage and invective on your level is always at least mildly entertaining.

Many people have made a living at being angry. Look at George Carlin or Denis Leary. It's a good and honest comedic living being angry.

"Basically the internet has given the most talentless people a chance to pretend they're creative geniuses." Brilliant. So many webcomic creators think that taking the time to make a webcomic is the same thing as making a webcomic good. Every art requires discipline and criticism in order to improve, but when you can just post whatever you want without any sort of editing or screening, you're just showing off how lazy you truly are.

Kurtz made a total win there.

Conway, I think the comic there is supposed to be a Star Wars joke. Because that's certainly topical. And the Gallagher/Kurtz thing was essentially Kurzt congratulating Rodney Caston on the birth of his kid and saying something like "That's at least something Fred can't steal from you", which would be mighty scathing except for the part where Rodney got a cash payout and all. Gallagher complained a lot in response, because apparently everyone hates him for what he did or some shit. In conclusion, they're both dicks, but for different reasons.

I know what the joke is supposed to be, the human deep fryer has only done that same gag roughly two hundred times before. What I meant is, that Francis' pose in the last panel looks like he's raising the fucking roof instead of shouting in agony/disappointment/hunger. Who the hell throws their hands up in that position when shouting. I also enjoy the anatomy in the last panel here: http://www.pvponline.com/article/3435/thu-jul-19?y= Man, polio sure is a terrible thing to have. As long as I'm linking this festering shit here, I might as well bring this up http://www.pvponline.com/article/3436/fri-jul-20?y= Now Kurtz, who claims to not "get" Achewood or simply not like it, I forget which one, pretty blatantly steals the dogbulance gag from Achewoods rabbit ambulance strip. Hell, it's even on a t-shirt over there: http://www.achewood.com/shop/app_dmain_bny.php Now, I know Kurtz is no stranger to intellectual theft, but dumbo drop didn't even bother to redraw the picture of the ambulance he's used a punchline at least twice before. Instead he went about it as he usually does, by scribbling over his existing template and slightly modifying it. For shame Kurtz!

Matt, what? What the hell? How would removing words add MORE to an argument? Not only are cursewords used in addition to a sentence or phrase, but they add an attitude and connotation to a work. There's a difference between respecting an argument less because you are offended by cursing than an argument being lessened because there is cursing. Namely, only the former is true.

Solomon, if you're looking for webcomics misogynists to skewer, there's a much more appropriate target than Deegan: Least I Could Do. Whereas I could conceivably chalk Mookie's apparent misogyny up to cluelessness and poor writing skills, the guy who writes Least I Could Do seems to know what he's doing. His Mary Sue self-insertion character (whose name is even a play on the author's) is all the more pathetic when you realize it represents the author's ambition is to be a complete asshole. It's written a lot better than Deegan, and it's even funny on occasion, but it's fucked up, and deserves a good verbal ass-whipping.

Didn't he already draw a dead (murdered) woman with her pantied ass sticking up in the air? Clearly, this means that Terracciano is, in fact, becoming less creepy. Unless you think think that sexualizing an unconscious dying woman is more creepy than doing the same to a woman that is simply dead. But the fact that there can be comparisons like this made from examples within his body of work is still pretty fucking creepy. The comic I'm referring to is at http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2004-05-13 Yes, I read through the archives. I couldn't look away, it was like a train wreck.... don't look at me!
