also uh... i thought that character was confirmed to be like 18-19 at some point? i didn't know avas demon still like.. existed.. i thought it died as soon as it got popular.. wow
Well I posted in the "bad webcomics" thread on this a while back so... still fresh in my memory.
The character is 15/16 in the comic, but the artist stated she aged her up for that picture. Whether that was before or after she was called a paedophile for drawing it, I have no idea. She's also been called a pedo/problematic for writing two characters into a relationship who are 15 and 18. Note that it hasn't actually happened in the comic yet, because the comic moves so fuckin slowly, but still. It's problematic. Because the 15 year old has been stated to "look 12" when she was being made fun of. Therefore, paedophilia.
Also there was some drama where the artist was called aphobic, by having a different character be made fun of for being a virgin.
Fun extra: the artist only drew the ~sexy~ because people were pissed off at her for a different drawing, and she wanted to... get back at them? Which I guess explains why she put the other picture on the front page of her website.
I'll be honest, it all amuses me because she's just as petty as the accusers are in a lot of ways. Even though this was years ago and she's managed to stay out of it since, despite the comic being back and moving again at a breakneck pace (no). Though it looks like it's on hiatus at the moment... lol.
...Meanwhile, pretty much unrelated, I found this blog. It's in a "character of the day format" and it is... "CSA survivor character of the day!"
Not just "child abuse survivor"... this is exclusively to fangirl over characters who were diddled as kiddies.
I have... I have no idea how many of these are canonically legit, but for some reason I get the feeling it mainly relies on headcanons.
