Purity Will Set You Free – a Preview of Tina Horn and Michael Dowling's SFSX (Safe Sex)
Nominative determinism is a phrase for the observation that people's names can often directly influence what they choos to do in life. There are more butchers with the surname Butcher than there would be by random chance.
Anyway. SFSX (Safe Sex) is a new comic book series written by Tina Horn. Previously a nonfiction writer and journalist whose work investigates sex work, queer identity, kink communities, and cultural criticism. And an educator dedicated to relationship communication, pleasure liberation, and ethical BDSM.
Drawn by Michael Dowling, who thankfully resisted the urge to work in interior fittings, it is to be published by Image Comics and up for Final Order Cut-Off this week. Which, yes, does sound like a dominatrix thing, but really isn't. Unless you are picturing Steve Geppi in a gimp mask.
SFSX (Safe Sex) is set in a world where sexuality has become bureaucratised, where there are purity surges, form-filling and a narrow form of feminist thinking has been singularly institutionalised.
The comic was initially launched as coming from DC Comics/Vertigo, but as we've seen, the only penis DC Comics can publish in their comics is a blue one, recent purity surges of their own after the publication of Batman Damned saw the series dropped, and picked up by Image Comics.
Here's a little preview… with a few amends for our own editorial guidelines. Sorry. The first issue will be fully returnable to registered retailers as part of Image's Risk Number One programme.
