Also Hopkins has a very shallow understanding of things that he likes to put the spotlight on in his comics, such as homosexuality, among other things. The depictions are stereotypical and misinformed. There are also misogynistic undertones.

The worst bit comes when you realize that Drip is Hopkin’s self-insert. Hopkins considers him a very personal character, uses him often as his avatar, and actually wants people to have sympathy with him. Hopkins also has an admitted rape fetish. Since Jack is a comic that has no hand in subtlety, and much of it can be read as the accumulated personal doodles of a single man, you come to many disturbing conclusions.

Like, Hopkins was jerking off to a rape arena.

It doesn’t feel like the comic has a message at all, really. There is so much forth wall breaking, plot holes, cameos, and self-insert characters (3 of the author alone). It feels more like misguided self-aggrandizing than something that is meant to be meaningful.

Also Fnar is not an abortion argument, because he was not aborted. His mother was KILLED while pregnant with him. Killed by HOPKINS (Drip).

For me, Jack was always something like a really dark, black comedy. For the life of me I can’t seem to take all that over-the-top violence stuff seriously. And all that cristian-morality stuff Hopkins drags out of his personal mental netherworld just makes me laugh even louder.

I don’t know what review you read, but I certainly didn’t see it as being an internet troll’s attempt at butthurt fame.You seem convinced that it is and it really isn’t. If he wanted that, it would have been a lot easier to go to the comic’s website, post shitty comments on the forum with a link to his blog attached and just wait for the angry fans to roll in and up his viewer counter.

Also, to essentially say that insulting/not liking someone’s particular art style is a “low blow” seems stupid to me. It would be like me saying “Wow, Dali sure knows what he’s doing with those elephants, while Degas’ work over here just looks like a blob of water color to me!” and then having someone telling me I can’t have that opinion because “It’s insulting the artist”. Doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, now does it?

TL;DR: I am a big fan of the comic and even I think you’re being a dipshit.

Jack is the furry webcomic equivalent of “Naked Lunch” and ya’ll know it! XD

Say what you will about David’s cosmology and ethics, he is one thing you have to respect: completely, brutally, and nakedly honest about the way he feels and the way he sees the world.

Without a doubt, it is utterly repugnant to the masses, but the only way we are going to make progress in our culture (and you’re an idiot if you claim we don’t need any) is with this kind of openness.

That’s how I see it, anyway.

And you read all of it.

Dang, man. My heart goes out to you.
