    Wow…

    Baldo has officially been “C Blocked”…. by his own father no less!

    I guess Sergio’s scolding from “telling lies over the internet” from last strip is totally short lived when a webcam comes to play!

    Yenny’s natural hotness strikes again I’m afraid!

    Wonderful strip today!

    Go Sergio! Now wouldn’t that be something if Baldo’s stepmom was Yenny.

    I notice Yennys left arm is quite large & muscular. Not as small as in her strip running with Fred & Barney unable to move her arms

    Posters’ lives are not the topic in this arena, Potrzebie, the comics are.

    Who is Yenny? I thought I read the whole week, but never caught a name and you guys seem to know her from… another comic strip? Clue me in!!!

    Yenny on a webcam would be next to impossible to resist.

    Was Yenny designed by Ralph Bakshi? She sure looks like one of Bakshi’s hot animated babes!

    Well, Sergio is a single adult and so is Yenny.

    Baldo might have teenage lust for Yenny; but, there is no way that he could date her. (According to her official MySpace profile, she is 25 years old. And according to this strip, Baldo is 15 going on 16.)

    It’s quite some distance between Southern California and Puerto Rico where she is.

    Has Ralph Bakshi ever drawn women with extra large feet like Yenny has?

    Why women will never be equal to men……………

    No short, fat, balding 40 year old woman thinks she’s cute.

    Yenny looks more similar to John Krikfalusi’s women than Bakshi’s, but then Bakshi was more of a businessman than an artist anyway. What you’re thinking of as “Bakshi’s women” may well have been Robert Crumb’s women, or Vaughn Bode’s women, or even John K’s women (“Bakshi’s Mighty Mouse” was actually the work of John K.).

    I also see a resemblance to Chris Sanders’ women, particularly Nani in Lilo and Stitch. Sanders caught lots of flack for drawing Nani with an actual anatomy, including strong, meaty legs and a well-defined pelvis.

    In “Zits”, Jeremy recently turned 16 (he was 15 when the strip began), and there are periodic references to him having erotic fantasies about his guidance counsellor, who’s in her 40’s. When we see her through Jeremy’s eyes, we see her clad in leopard-skin bikinis, or with a plunging neckline, in a variety of come-hither poses. When we see her as others see her, she’s dressed primly, and conservatively.

    That’s how teenage boys experience the world. If you’re doing a strip which honestly (yet humorously) deals with the emotional life of a teenage boy, to completely avoid the freely-flowing, randomly-directed HORNINESS that is so much a part of being that age is to be dishonest. It’s the (PRUDISH) impulse which insists on “abstinence only” sex education, treating sexual thoughts as if they were shameful, repression, neurosis, guilt…

    I’m not advocating “All sex, all the time”, but repressive PRUDERY and destructive licentiousness don’t counteract each other, they REINFORCE each other. The tighter you try to clamp down the lid, the more likely the pressure will be released in an unwanted manner.

    By Jis and by St. Charity,
    Alack, and fie! for shame,
    Young men will do ‘t
    If they come to ‘t,
    By C–k, they are to blame!

    I totally agree with fritzoid…

    This particular comic strip is not advocating 15 year olds trying to have sexual relationships with 22 year olds. In light of what Fritzoid said, the main point and overall funny gag of this weeks strip is to show an average young male in his teens working towards a goal that is probably not likely to ever happen. It shows the hopeful aspirations of male teen in his early years of exploring the opposite sex. It’s supposed to be funny because he trying so hard to impress a girl fulfilling one of the typical aspects of most teen males partaking in their own love fantasies.

    Lastly the large feet aren’t drawn because of Dave’s style. Dave draw’s plenty of regular sided feeton all sorts of characters. Yenny’s feet are part of her own strip’s gag. She aspires to be a runway model but is unable to because of the size her feet. Thereafter she goes through many humorous situations with friends, family and complete strangers taking small oddball jobs in pursuit of one day achieving her modeling dream.
