Title: Tank Girl
Post by: ericc on July 11, 2009, 12:00:46 PM
As a Big fan of Tank Girl, I noticed that she's Non-Binary Gendered. Has anyone ever read Tank Girl or seen the movie?

I love Lori Petty. She's so cool. That movie gets too weird with the dog boyz though (Ice T). Otherwise it's pretty good.

I loved the movie and got one comic. Are there more than one?

Oh yes. Theres 3 of the original comic strip graphic novels, The Odyssey (which is a full legnth graphic novel), and "The Apocalypse" (Which is technically the final Tank Girl graphic novel because Tank is pregnant). Then when the original creator James Hewlett left to create his animated band experiment "Gorillaz", writer Alan Mortin took over. Unfortunatly most of the new Tank Girl comics had a new design to them and kind of lost it's illustraited quality.

I saw the movie for the first time recently, and I loved it. I haven't read the comics, but my bf made me watch it cause he said she reminded him of me (and I'd agree a little. Lol). :)

LOL really. That's interesting.

How I got into Tank Girl is through an Anime Film called "FLCL", then I read the Tank Girl comics and noticed the strong simulation between them, and then I've seen the film.

I also study Personality Psychology and I've noticed that Tank Girl's personality typie is ENTP. Simular to me but I'm an ENFP. LOL

I think Tank Girl made some revolution in the LGBT communities. I've read that Margret Thatcher over in England (Where Tank Girl originated) was planning to Ban any kind of media relating to LGBT. Lots of protest signs agenst Maggie Thatcher had Tank Girl on them and a lot of female non-binaries and Butch would be in tents because of the over night protest and they would call them "Tank Girl Nights"

It's interesting hearing the history of Tank Girl. I think Tank Girl is a Non-Binary because she still clames that she's a girl but she's very Masculine and really into punk culture. Tank is also Bi-sexual, in some of the comics they will show that. It's very interesting.
