Maybe it's because they're dolls or something.

Telegraph messages.

Also, the author said that she wanted it to be in the same style as yaoi mangas, except set in the United States. It's not supposed to be realistic.

Except it's clearly trying to be something actual gay people can relate to and is trying to be "helpful" and all that.

So yeah, it is supposed to be realistic.

It's just bad at being realistic.

The last thing I want to deal with is a copyright infringement charge for posting all of these pages on the web.

you didn't give credit to yourself and you posted a link to the artist's website.
But knowing how greed and people go hand in hand, I see what you mean.

That'd be true... if this was a free webcomic. But it's not, it's a $13 book. Thus, what Zink's doing here - and the rest of us - is straight-up piracy.

There's a bit of an exception here in that it's being used as a parody, but that only goes so far and uploading the entire book as-is is definitely well past that point.


Though you certainly have a point, Plasma, most people aren't going to be up in arms when you go to such lengths to parody a bad thing or show how awful it is. People generally will not want to waste their cheddar on something they know is terrible, or have heard the general consensus from peers that the thing in question is terrible, even in an entertaining way.

But isn't Zink leaving out pages he doesn't think are funny? So the work isn't technically complete.

Hardly an argument, but it is something.

It's not parody. Parody is imitation, not scanning pages and commenting on them. This is piracy. Now can we please shut up about that?

Regardless of what it is or is not, sending her a link to this would be incredibly cruel.

Agreed. It may be terrible but that's not really a cause to bully someone.

Yeah uh after this whole discussion I'm not really sure I should continue.

I probably still will but give me some time to think about it.

Unless she regularly googles her own book titles I doubt she'll find this.

I think you should continue, since the chances of anyone seeing this, let alone suing you for this are extremely low and such. Plus, even if someone does find this, they'll most likely/hopefully just ask you/tell you to take down the images.
