The Image above is probably of fish or buffalo or something like that but to me it looks a little like the cave men were trying to draw the double helix structure of DNA.
What you were expecting an actual story, do you know where you are? Check the source link for that, although I didn’t read it so their analysis could be just as farcical as mine.

The video games industry is filled with male role models, not too many female protagonists, sure we get the odd Lara Croft or Ms. PacMan but on the whole girls seem to be more like princess peach or Zelda, a plot device or the reason the male character is out stomping mushrooms or killing baddies.
While this series by artist Marques Cannon does a little towards changing that it hard not to notice the focus on tits an ass in the series. Still they are pretty cool, by why does every woman in video games have to be half naked?

If you ever can’t decide whether you want to wear shoes of just socks these are the socks for you. They are called “Sneaker Socks” but they look a lot more like Converse calf high boots to me. Anyway this is what they look like when not one, I actually like the fact that they make it look like you are also wearing socks under your boots…
