Watchmen Comics, Movie & the Tijuana Bible

Silk Spectre and the Adventures of the ACME Brushman!

I finally saw the Watchmen last night. In case you didn’t know, I’m a fan of comics. And I’ve loved watching my favorite comic book characters, heroes and villains, come alive in the theater. My roommate took me to see the Watchmen, saying I would love it. She mentioned the first few minutes of the movie was very “vintage”. That’s all it takes to get me to see a movie! I’m usually unimpressed and bored with most films that come out in theaters. But not this one! Watchmen was dark and visually stunning.

My eyes were glued to the screen the second I saw the Silk Spectre I aka Sally Jupiter, played by Carla Gugino. The hairstyle and makeup, the sexy pinup costume, complete with garter belt and fishnet stockings was spot on.

Let me just say I loved it. In fact, I think I was aroused through most of the film! I did not, however, expect to see vintage sex comics mentioned or even shown on the big screen. They called it the Tijuana Bible. I couldn’t find any movie stills of it (for obvious reasons) so I took my own. I’m surprised there isn’t at least one pervert on the internet that’s already taken it and posted on some geeky comic porn forum. I guess I’m the first pervert to do it!

I find cartoon porn to be hilarious and entertaining.  I’ve watched many vintage sex movies and the films back then were every bit as raunchy as modern porn is today! I think it may even be kinkier.

Did you know that these underground porn comics usually featured well known cartoon characters, political figures or movie stars? I want to get my hands on a Cary Grant or Mae West one!
