We try not to make a habit of looking at so-called 'adult' comics (so-called because more often than not they are extremely juvenile in their portrayal of sexual situations). For a change of pace, we're going to make an exception.
This story is from the most unlikely of sources: HUSTLER COMIX. But don't let that scare you. This is probably one of the tamest comics to ever grace their pages. Yes, there's nudity. Yes, there's a bit of adult humor. Yet and still, this is one of the best homages to the old EC comics that I've come across.
Take away the bare boobs and you could actually see this as coming from an old issue of WEIRD FANTASY.
Also of note is the fact that the 'tentacle rape' scene on pages 4 & 5 is actually done somewhat tastefully and discreetly (more tasteful and discreet than you'd expect from HUSTLER). And, this is the only story in the magazine that doesn't have a graphically depicted sex scene(??!).
