| description | The homoerotic comic strip, as a medium and genre in its own right, integrates
several media including illustration, cartoon, animation, graphics, physique art,
and pornography. In these subaltern texts, when the characters are of the same
gender the rites of masculinity are both indulged and subverted. Hence, this graphic
subculture provides a radical perspective on sexualities, intimacies, body worship
and contemporary phallic regimes. This article focuses on Jon Macy’s
‘Tail’ (published in 1997 in Meatmen, an American
anthology of gay male comics), a hard-core comic strip that eroticizes and
politicizes Sigmund Freud’s homophobic myth of the Wolf Man. |
