--- Those ’70s Comics: 583 Inspired by episode 505 - “Ramble On” https://i.postimg.cc/1trfLn0y/582hotflash.jpg --- Comments: The image of Eric’s gigantic ring gave me a laugh when I originally drew these comics, and it still does. Eric’s arm is stronger than he lets on. I enjoy enhancing the silliness of a T7S scene, sometimes to the absurd, as today’s comic demonstrates. |

--- Those ’70s Comics: 584 Inspired by episode 505 - “Ramble On” https://i.postimg.cc/Kz5B2s7k/583visionloss.jpg --- Comments: Unfortunately, this comic is full of fat jokes, riffing off T7S’s own jokes about Kelso’s sister from “The Afterglow” (2x17). I would never write anything like this today, and in fanfic I write her as a full character, not as a punchline. But this is one way how entertainment can be harmful: misrepresenting people, ridiculing them based on X-variable, and essentially dehumanizing them all in the name of humor normalizes that kind of thinking and treatment of people, whether in fiction or in the real world. When writing this comic about eight years ago, I wasn’t thinking critically about the show’s treatment of Kelso’s sister or how it might affect people who struggle with weight and/or a negative body image. I thought: jokes, jokes, jokes. That’s likely how T7S’s writers thought when approaching that circle scene in “The Afterglow” and when writing a host of other offensive dialogue and character development (e.g., the show’s inherent misogyny as represented by Kelso’s false equivalency between his months of sex with other girls and Jackie’s one kiss with one guy – and Jackie accepting this false equivalency). Today’s comic is one I’d like to take a big red marker to and X out, but I leave it here with my commentary in the hope that it might be instructive to other creators out there (people who create fanworks and otherwise) and healing to readers who this comic might’ve hurt over the years. Mea culpa. |

--- Those ’70s Comics: 585 Inspired by episode 505 - “Ramble On” https://i.postimg.cc/63LnK5Jf/584injusticeleague.jpg --- Comments: Fantasies like this were a staple of That ‘70s Show since “That ‘70s Pilot” (1x01), but they decreased in frequency as the show got into its later seasons. The Superpals fantasy is one of the more elaborate fantasies of the later seasons, and I added commentary about the role Jackie and Hyde play in it, as well as a callback to “The Good Son” (1x25). Looking back, I wonder if Kelso – since this is his fantasy – made Jackie and Hyde twins on purpose, as an expression of his disgust at their union. I doubt the writers thought that deeply about it. .Nevertheless, one can reasonably argue that this subtext exists. --- Kayla, Colleen, thank you! :group_hug: |
