Erotic Comics

Erotic comics are a form of sexual expression. They are heavily influenced by current cultural taboos.

About Erotic Comics

Erotic comics are not for the shy or timid. They are explicit cartoon drawings that show sexual actions and situations. The comic artist tantalizes the reader with an exciting story to go along with the provocative imagery.

The level of explicit detail will vary depending on the artist who creates it. What is considered taboo in some countries is widely accepted in others. In the US, the sight of a topless woman is associated with sex and discouraged from public display. Which some believe this is why adult material like this is so popular here. European countries have a more lax attitude and include all types of nudity in their advertising. In Japan, it is commonplace to see a man walking around looking at sex (manga) comics.

Comics with a sexual nature began in the 1920s. Called “Tijuana bibles”, they were eight pages of titillating comic strips, which featured many popular celebrities of the time. The artists were generally anonymous, since the material tended to be quite crude and a bit racist. As time went on, the popularity of this type of sexy material spread to other printed media. Playboy and Penthouse feature their own humorous erotic strips in their magazine. Other types of erotic comics followed with themes with popular cartoon characters, S&M and bondage, fetishes and other types of sexual activities. Today, erotic comics can be found on websites as well as graphic novels and other printed materials.
