With Watchmen hitting theaters recently, comics are having yet another moment in the pop-culture sun. And if you're a fan of the indies, you probably know Bluewater Comics. You may have read their "sequels" to some of your fave Hollywood mythology films—like The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad, Clash of the Titans, and Jason and the Argonauts—or you might be more familiar with their monthly books, such as 10th Muse. But I bet you didn't know that the people behind Bluewater are huge PETA supporters. Although, based on how awesome they are, I'm sure it's not exactly a shock.
Our friends at Bluewater have just created the latest ad in PETA's "Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" series, featuring four of their biggest stars—Emma Sonnet from 10th Muse, Diana Moore of JudoGirl, Scarlet of VSS: Nemesis Rising, and Isis from the Legend of Isis—posing au naturel to protest the cruel fur industry. Check out the ad below:
Why are the lovely ladies of Bluewater taking it up (er, off?) with the fur industry? Animals on fur farms spend their entire lives in cramped, filthy cages and are killed by neck-breaking, head-stomping, or anal or vaginal electrocution.
Who's the next comic book character you want to see in an ad for PETA? Let me know by posting a comment below. Personally, I'm voting for my man Hellboy (I just finished Darkness Calls and it was great!).

Vegan vegetarian Comics horses Secret Asian Man
You know how people talk about how powerful an engine is based on "horsepower?"
Interesting thing about that, my friends.
Horses are vegetarian. In fact, I guess they are vegan! I mean, it's not like you've ever seen them eat some eggs or drink another species' milk, right?
Here's a Secret Asian Man comic to give you a fun visual about what I'm getting at here.

Bottom line. Even if you don't care about animals or the environment, try out vegetarianism for your health. Oh for Pete's sake, you should just try veganism. It's really easy. I've done it for over 11 years!

It's easy to go with the always terrible Col. Sanders. But Perdue wasn't exactly a saint as you can see here. And then General Tzo is just funny. However, I will have you know that it's not all that difficult to make a vegan version of that infamous dish.
So it's a tough decision isn't it? I guess I'll go with Col. Sanders because he's just representative of such a terrible company.

Our buddy Doug and his Pop Culture Shock Therapy comics have some good ones for you, and this time around they focus on KFC and it's all around callousness.
It's good to know that the artist is vegetarian and trying to get his stuff into college newspapers for students to see. I mean, how many of those played out comics mocking Hillary Clinton or George Bush can you really take before you decide it's time for something more witty and refreshing like what Pop Culture Shock Therapy is doing?
