I just had a thought: what if you had some anti-logging person sitting up on top of those strip poles?
If this was, oh, two years ago; it'd be Lil' E, but of course now the devil's supporters are... fewer in number...
Foil to Trike Girl, perhaps? (in a negative sense, mind you. A Terminator to her Sarah Conner. An Ash to her Ripley. You get the idea.) _________________ "Cada uno es como Dios le hizo, y aśn peor muchas veces."

I will silently bow out before any further shitposts can be done at my expense. Have a nice day, ser. _________________ Opinions are like ass holes: everybody has them.

No matter what they're called, I feel that they should be shown doing something other than acting arrogant.
The Morpheus gag is funny for a while, but eventually you gotta show us the decrepit caves of Zion and the evil machines that want to destroy it. Cause otherwise, you're just left with an arrogant know-it-all.
So yeah. Loose the Coyote and Roadrunner routine with the Devil. Have him get fed up and send somebody after them. Have this bad guy do bad things to women. Tie some chick to a railroad track. You get my drift.
Give us a villain to hate. Big D is still too sympathetic, especially with the Lil E storyline fresh in our minds. _________________ "Cada uno es como Dios le hizo, y aśn peor muchas veces."

Quick! Alternate character interpretation!
Glossy is harvesting stripper poles for the devil! Every other argument is now invalid. _________________

Oh no, I understand that certainly.
It's just so indirect that the protagonist-antagonist dynamic just doesn't work.
Imagine if you took the story of Robin Hood, but removed all of the scenes of the townsfolk being taxed into poverty, as well as never had Robin Hood and his merry band face any overt threat to their persons from the Sheriff or Prince whomever. That's the situation Sinfest currently faces.
The Sisterhood are not bad characters nor do they represent bad themes. It's just that certain key elements are missing from their story, effectively making them unsympathetic to certain audiences (myself included).
The trolls can go frak themselves, btw. Don't lump me in. _________________ "Cada uno es como Dios le hizo, y aśn peor muchas veces."
