Every time I think of a rapping dog, Who Let the Dogs out song comes to mind. It's an older song, so I'd be surprised if most people today even heard of it.

But harsh as it is, it is rare to hear of stars reading manga/ comics all together.

But I must say, Nina's face at the last panel was quite epic to say the least.


Heh... Poochie came to my mind.


Some beautiful people read comics... like when a Hollywood starlet wants to prepare for a role and they have a geeky husband to help them (some manga is mentioned too). =p

Why in the name of Haruhi did you have to bring that abomination up?!? We're all trying so hard to forget that horrible thing! He totally ruined Itchy and Scratchy forever! Wink

dormcat's response was good but I think I speak for my perverted inner self (currently one of six voices running the United Richards, a league of various psyche rulers attempting to prevent anarchy and war between my various personalities) when I post that photographic evidence would be appreciated.

It's nice to occasionally see proof that, yes, there are women who appreciate comics of any kind. I've read a lot of horror stories over the years from guys with wives/gfs who seemed to think any hobby for the man was a waste of time and space.

Ceci looks like a character from one of those 'create your own character' ads you see all over the internet.

Personally I would have liked the last panel to be Nina flying thru the air at the new elf like a howler monkey in an incoherent rage.

BLEARGGH! or Funnuraba!


*gasp* Is this an Eyeshield reference?! Lol, I'd like to see Nina Funnuraba at Ceci with Kurita's SUPER SERIOUS face on =P Complete with bushy eyebrows and flames for eyes Anime hyper

I'm still a teenager and I remember it and I still hear it refereced a lot by other people my age.

Poor Nina... Though the stereotype about beautiful girls is not true.

How much silicone did they bribe Ceci with? That's what I'm curious to know.

I dunno, I've seen an awful lot of gorgeous cosplayers and I'm pretty darn sure they read manga/other comics, Ceci is just delusional. Anime hyper

I don't wanna sound weird, but Robin did a really good job of making Ceci hot.

You do know that she just looked in the mirror and added elf ears, right?

Honestly, that plot for the Family Circus movie sounds better than whatever they're bound to come up with. Unless they have Billy go on one of his wanderings, which leads him into a wood chipper. I'd watch the movie then.

Now, Nina just has to defeat Ceci with the power of yuri. And they'll all live happily ever after.

So... I take it Ceci is the Adult Video News Elf? Or perhaps the Elf-in-Residence for Playboy or Hustler (they have cartoons, too)?

PowerGirl... That's hilarious ;3

Hey, I'm beautiful and I read comics. Does that make me weird?

Thanks for making my comment seem a lot less awkward.
