Vega2.LesTwins

Best things about this cover:
  • The title font is amazing—stuck somewhere between Wacky and Horror
  • Composition here is also amazing—I especially love that her ass is at his eye-level, and the "Vega Book 50c" logo is like a caption over his head signifying "whoa...!" or "boing!" or "hubba hubba" etc.
  • Remember Doublemint's short-lived ad campaign for "Adult Gum?" Me either.
  • A book about lesbian twins by someone whose first *and* last names are slang for "penis!?" What are the odds?
  • Like I believe that Bill here would find the idea of two hot young twins making out with each other "ugly." His akimbo arms say "well I never ..." but his ass-hungry eyes say something else.

Back cover is just a giant version of that "Vega Book 50c" logo, so we'll go straight to ...

Page 123~

"Bill, would you like to see the picture of the girl Jane lives with?"

The way she said it, speaking it all out unnecessarily [1], I was sure I got her message: Look, Bill, Jane is still a Lesbian [2].

The girl in the picture wore a leather jacket and levis [3] as she straddled her motorcycle.

"Looks more like a man," I couldn't help saying ... [4]
  • [1] ??? "The way she said it, using her lips to form a syntactically coherent set of words..."
  • [2] Love the capital-L Lesbian. More badass and imposing that way: appropriate considering the girl in question is a biker.
  • [3] Capital-L Lesbian good; lower-case l / apostrophe-free levis, less so.
  • [4] Pretty sure you could help saying, Bill. Although you do seem awfully mystified by words and the funny things they do, so who knows?
