Kevin J. Taylor

Adult black & white graphic novel.

This is a relatively long book about Girl, a stripper, who makes a deal with a devil. The book opens with a scene of Girl buying some merchandise from "Cloven Hoof." Immediately after the visit to that special shop, Girl stops off at the Kat Kat club for some nude dancing. Afterward, Girl is fondled by one of her fellow strippers and her boss. A large amount of sexual activity occurs before Girl is able to eventually make the deal with the devil. In between show more (the buying of the merchandise and performing the ritual to make a deal), Girl wanders around in very skimpy revealing clothing, has men ejaculate onto her as she is attempting to leave a fast food restaurant, has an orgy in the back of a convertible along a city street, and in an alley, dances some more at the strip club, is fondled some more and finally, the ritual.

The sexy young woman asks for immortality in her current form. In return the devil/demon has some sexual fun with Girl. Girl will get what she wants, as long as she receives his "rapture" or finds a replacement. Girl must find a replacement (or offer herself up) every thirteen years, plus the first one, on the very next day. While playing with herself, the "camera" pulls back to reveal a man with a camera, who had been watching her. End chapter one.

The book includes four chapters. The second chapter sees Girl waking up next to that female stripper who had been fondling her earlier, a man burst into flames when he touched Girl without her consent (those with consent, apparently, do not burst into flames, that or they are demons), an orgy in the back of a car (yep, they were demons), some more dancing at the strip club, an introduction to an adult film producer who will lead her into that world, and the sacrifice of another. Chapter three ("The Pawn") sees some more orgies (for which Girl is paid for her services), some more strip dancing, wandering the streets in revealing clothing, and dreaming about filming an adult film. The fourth chapter is the last and so I'll just mention that some more of the same occur, plus . . .

Overall, the artwork is good, only slightly hindered by being black & white and the plot is, well, strange. The book includes exhibitism, voyeurism, devils/demons, orgies, lesbianism, etc. show less

Adult Full-Color graphic novel.

Man, Jill is sure one hot woman. Right, sorry. This book is about a young woman named Jill. Jill narrates the story through the method of an "audio" diary.

Jill just moved out of her parent's home a couple of months ago and needs some money to pay her bills but is having trouble keeping jobs. Man that girl is hot.

The story starts with Jill waking up with three men after getting drunk with them at a bar. She tries to disengage, succeeds and leaves to try to show more arrive at her job on time but she is already late. She slips into some skin tight clothes without adding underwear to her ensemble and heads off to her clothing store job (oh, and her tights are semi-transparent).

In her get-up, Jill makes a lot of sales at the store, but knows that she is going to get fired. While Jill is in the break room, the store owner's son enters and oops, out pops his huge johnson. While they are having some fun the manager looks in, is shocked, and leaves. After the "fun" is over, the kid gives Jill some money (oh, and that "fun" has made certain sections on the waist of Jill's tights completely transparent). Despite selling a lot of merchandise, Jill is told that she will be let go at the end of the week.

While attempting to set some sales records Jill is approached by some men that want to know how to "get" with her. She tells them to pay her. They don't want to do that and leave. Two other men overhear and wander up and ask how much and then offer $1000.

Jill isn't certain if she really wants to "rent" herself and has to think about it. She thinks about it after work when she goes to the bar with a female friend. She decides to do it. She goes to the address the men gave her and the men show up, and lead her into a dark alley to a dirty mattress. They end up being rather huge, give Jill a lot of pleasure, and then give her $2000. Jill's new career begins (or continues after being paid by the store owner's son). The story continues for another 38 or so pages. Jill: "I actually look forward to going to "work"."

Overall, the book is very well-drawn, the plot isn't anything much, and the book is quite good. And Jill is one hot woman, and she certainly knows how to dress. show less

L’erotismo di Kevin J Taylor lascia pochissimo spazio alla fantasia, si muove a passi veloci verso la pornografia. Sperma dovunque, gang bang, sodomia obbligatoria, sesso, sesso e sesso. Ma la pornografia resa così è un’arte, c’è poco da dire. Un disegno unico, personalissimo, frutto di un’analisi anatomica profonda trasfusa in seni, membri che non sono riproduzioni fedeli ma rientrano nell’ambito di una incredibile visione e proposizione del sesso da parte dell’autore. È un show more piccolissimo albo che rientra nell’ambito di una pubblicazione periodica, che, secondo gli standard, non dovrebbe trovare spazio tra queste recensioni. Ma trovare una raccolta completa del lavoro di Kevin J. Taylor non è semplice, anzi. Si tratta, quindi, una ridottissima selezione della serie di Girl che ricordo leggevo su Blue, ai tempi d’oro di queste pubblicazioni, chiuse dalle regole di questo incredibile mercato che emargina qualunque progetto abbia un obiettivo culturale. E si, perché questo autore è incredibile e non conoscere il suo lavoro un peccato mortale per un appassionato di fumetti.

Recensione del 21 marzo 2023
Questo piccolo numero è una sorta di omaggio all’arte di Kevin J. Taylor. Girl è una bomba di erotismo, dietro le sue forme strabordanti, c’è tutto il mondo delle donne. Il sesso di Taylor è diretto, non ci sono preamboli, o corteggiamenti, conta l’odore, le dimensioni, non ci sono limiti, solo piacere, grande piacere. E le storie sono gradevoli proprio nella loro estrema semplicità, essenziali, senza fronzoli, come un certo tipo di sesso. E la dimensione ridotta dell’albo è perfetta perché altrimenti si rischierebbe la ripetitività. Un grande classico dell’erotismo a fumetti, spinto molto spinto. show less
