There is...I couldn't resist posting this here.<br /><br />There is something disgusting about this comic, and especially in the art work. A comic about a guy with cross dressing fantasies might have been an interesting concept for a Lady Gaga comic, but having the main character be a fat disgusting slob who even insults Lady Gaga's music as he's buying her album is....an unfaithful representation. Why is the guy throwing Gaga from a ledge in his dreams? Is this comic saying that people who wish to be like Lady Gaga and are male are automatically serial killers? I've seen Iron Liz's rebuttal to this review a while ago. The character in the comic is being portrayed as a fat disgusting serial killer, in my opinion. It's not a story one can empathize with, if you catch my drift. He is not worthy to enter the Hause of Gaga.<br />KVnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-22506158787714656502012-08-22T15:39:08.421-05:002012-08-22T15:39:08.421-05:00HAHAHA very funny Linkara, your sanity is apparent...HAHAHA very funny Linkara, your sanity is apparently slownly dyingEnoc Elias Escalona Delgadohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12175482728910009872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-81878834615311614622012-04-19T07:29:31.606-05:002012-04-19T07:29:31.606-05:00So, I wrote a rather large rebuttal toward Iron Li...So, I wrote a rather large rebuttal toward Iron Liz creative, and baseless interpretation of the story, but it being at 11621 characters, and would need to be broken up into 3 posts, and that would transform the response from long winded to lifeless youtube debater, I've decided against it.<br /><br />So, my question is why Iron Liz is completely ignoring that Lady Gaga was pushed over the railing in the dream sequence? If it wasn't for that scene, then him becoming Lady Gaga, there would have been a lot less psychotic and mental break down feel for the entire thing. <br /><br />And the other question I have is why Iron Liz is inventing the context for the Sweating Face panel. Iron Liz stance on it, would be more valid, if that panel happen before he bough the media, but it can't be nervousness after he buys it. The dangerous act of buying the taboo media is over, that should be a sense of relief, and excitement at consuming the media he just bought. No where before this sequence are we shown why the main character would even consider that buying Lady Gaga is taboo. No one is negative about him and liking Lady Gaga. The music store clerk, found it curious for the main character to buy the album, but he didnt find it distasteful. He (music clerk) thought it odd because it goes against his (main character) usual purchasing habits. And we can infere that, as the brief set up for the character is that he prefer older music. His co-works didnt care that it was Lady Gaga music, they just cared he was disrupting the working environment. His wife, adores that her husband is a huge lady gaga fan. There is no set up for the main character liking lady gaga is taboo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-64745638204598632752012-02-06T01:19:04.833-06:002012-02-06T01:19:04.833-06:00I think Liz had a had a closer interpretation to w...I think Liz had a had a closer interpretation to what the author was trying to get across in the comic. However, it's just that the comic is made so vague and strange that the message is hard to find and can be misconstrued easily. That one scene DOES make him look like a serial killer to me. It looks like he is SO in love with lady Gaga that he wants to kill her and become her. While at other times, I can see the message of accepting who you really are, for example the ending message from the wife, and it seems really sweet. I can see that he identifies with Lady Gaga by becoming her but it doesn't necessarily mean that he is a cross dresser,even though he turns out to be one. In the end it is a comic that tried to get across a message but didn't do it clearly enough so that people could understand it and I would probably say stay away from it unless you want to get yourself confused or make fun of the weird art work lol.Shi-hanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970199551726365321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-67527105775057036042011-08-26T16:21:13.354-05:002011-08-26T16:21:13.354-05:00I agree with Cubey: this seems more like something...I agree with Cubey: this seems more like something related to Chris-chan, than anything else.enigmus20https://www.blogger.com/profile/07342398525612663696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-41723441448207721852011-07-15T14:57:21.489-05:002011-07-15T14:57:21.489-05:00Okay after watching both...

It is a comic that seems it wanted to be about a man who goes insane and obsessive, and should have gone after Gaga, but instead they switched it to her accepting him.<br /><br /> Also, Lady Gaga is every level of pertentious. Along with using her fame to abuse fans at a baseball game, then continuing her insulting of the fans from Jerry Seinfelds personal box, before being asked to leave, she also admits she KNEW she was better then everyone else, and when she wrote her first song, "I like, knew I was going places".<br /><br /> The only reason the GL stuff comes up, is because the fanatics of those groups tend to support her A LOT thinking she supports them (She doesn't really) And yes there are fanatics in EVERY group, Republican, Liberal, Gay Rights, Femen(azi)s, PETA, ALF.. and so many more...MooCowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05141910204592509028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-15282802056914210072011-07-15T14:24:43.163-05:002011-07-15T14:24:43.163-05:00SPOILERS: Lady Gaga rips everything she does off o...SPOILERS: Lady Gaga rips everything she does off of popstars from the 80's!<br /><br />Don't believe me?

Musically, she is just as formulaic as everyone else is.

Honestly, let's look at the evidence; he gets so engrossed in the singer after watching one single music video of her, starts watching and dreaming about her all the time, and not only does his wife encourage his obsession without admonishing him, she actually records his public display of fanboygasm for posterity. His coworkers only get on his case about it when his singing starts disrupting their work, and they calm down after he gushes about how awesome Gaga is, spreading his madness onto the others. He isn't punished at all for the stunt he pulls at the fast food restaurant, and to top it all off, when Gaga sees the clip of it, she immediately wants him in her clique, the ultimate goal for any stalkerish fanboy short of becoming the object of their obsession, which the dream sequence could easily be interpreted as.<br /><br />As Linkara said, if there were other hints given in the comic that the guy was closeted and was using Lady Gaga as an outlet for his real orientation, that would've made for a better comic and validated your opinion, but as such, there's only that one single panel giving us any hint of it, and that's not nearly enough, in my opinion.SynjoDeonecroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08797975991138870677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-73039692128683655312011-04-23T03:34:58.973-05:002011-04-23T03:34:58.973-05:00i came here to say pretty much the same thing as a...i came here to say pretty much the same thing as <a href="http://atopfourthwall.blogspot.com/2011/04/lady-gaga-1.html?showComment=1302701315950#c4566256944009612999" rel="nofollow">an earlier anon</a>. based on the wording of the statement where it came up, this comic seems to think that "bisexual" literally means "both sexes", and that seriously pisses me off.karanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-23370018270681525962011-04-22T09:11:08.773-05:002011-04-22T09:11:08.773-05:00Funny review Linkara, disagree with you Liz, weird...Funny review Linkara, disagree with you Liz, weird is weird regardless of the excuseace24https://www.blogger.com/profile/12563873306872579597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-11207349224018567242011-04-20T22:29:02.634-05:002011-04-20T22:29:02.634-05:00Oh man.

This is not a positive portrayal, it borders on being downright offensive. It is not typical for LGBT individuals to loudly sing in the work place uncontrollably or burst into public restaurants and start lip syncing and dancing on tables. CRAZY PEOPLE do things like that. And what of the fact that he's a condescending asshole? That can't tolerate his wife having her own fantasies? That the comic is advertised as being about Gaga herself?<br /><br />In essence, I think Liz's video is actually more offensive than any of Linkara's jokes (which he was doing to entertain, not to argue any larger point about LGBT individuals.) She assumes just because the character appears to be dealing with LGBT issues that should justify the character the offensive portrayal of the character. <br /><br />It seems like an overzealous attempt on Liz's part to seem pro-LGBT, no matter what the cost. There's plenty of well written and accurate portrayals of LGBT individuals, I don't see the need to defend this garbage, which seems to be of the antiquated mindset that homosexuality is a form of psychosis.Graynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-17179570354924743062011-04-14T02:24:30.317-05:002011-04-14T02:24:30.317-05:00I have to admit that book was weird.

However we are not, and that just shows the ignorance of that comic. Transexuals are people who want to change their sex, Crossdressers are people wear the other sex clothes, Homosexuals are those who like the same sex and Bisexuals are people who like both sexes. You would think they would know this much, in this day and age. I don't like this comic and think it is very offensive to the GLBT Community and it certainly offended me. <br /><br />I'm also a Ga Ga fan, having the balcony dream be based on Paparazzi still dose not justify that he's dreaming about killing Lady Gaga. It seems as though he wants to steal her spotlight. But then again it could be that he wishes that he can be brave as her. But all in all I hate this comic. Sorry Liz.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
