i dont know if people have wrote about her before but does anyone read Tankgirl???

i think the comics are amazing and Jamie Hewlett's work is so wonderful (he is also the artist of Gorillaz) i love the way his art is so colourful and bold!!!
and tankgirl is just so cool and confidant (her dont give a crap attitude)!

just thought i'd mention her, or that she needed to be mentioned...

saw the movie; wasn't inspired. haven't checked out the actual comics, though.

I admit...like the movie and own the soundtrack and some comics.


What can I say...it made me happy when I was all 21 and stuff.


still does.


My firstest ever online persona was tankgirl even....

I have Tank Girl stuff


from before the movie too



She's nifty and so's Booga.


darn executives objecting to humanoid kangaroo / human post coital scenes. Would have made the movie.


as would some more money and time. Of course.

In highschool, I had a friend who idolized Tank Girl. She even did her hair to look like Tank Girl, and managed to come remarkably close. Then the movie came out... she wasn't so outspoken about her love of Tank Girl ever again.

Poor Tank Girl.

The comics are very cool - and honestly? I liked the movie. (I like most movies with floor shows).

Hi Lady Doom!

I did not see the movie, but I firstly read Tank, something like... thirteen years ago (yes, I start to be old), on an Italian magazine of comics. It was when she accidentally kills Captain Koala (very sad, indeed)and then she goes in that big store to buy a new pet... chosing that drunk, weird old dog. In Italy I have a toy-pet that resembles it... my nice cat almost destroyed its nose, biting it hard, I think to catch my attention! I loved that comic. I've been reading a lot of her adventures both in Italian and English - now it's some years that I don't meet Tank so often. But good to remember!

Aussie Aussie Aussie! Oi Oi Oi!

the comic is cool. the movie is also random and cool. i enjoy it. nothing serious, but fun and full of punk attitude. and australia

oh, and sometime ago mtxx linked to a Jamie Hewlett comic of Pulp's 'Common People'. it was awesome

...the screenplay of the movie is by Martin Millar! That Scottish weird being who lives in Brixton and wrote MILK, SULPHATE AND ALBY STARVATION

( I liked the Japanese cover...).

Anyone for Alby?...

I'm for Alby. And The Good Fairies of New York, Dreams of Sex and Stage Diving, Lux the Poet and Ruby and the Stone Age Diet.

Shame that they're out of print. Big shame. Good books. Guess I can be smug that i've got them though. And i think Neil once recommended The Good Fairies of New York on his blog. As do I recommend them. Had no idea that Miller did Tank Girl.

I picked out my Tank Girls because of this thread and so must thank it. I've been having a jolly good read of them.

*Hugs Tank Girl*

I LOVED Tank Girl in my teen years. She was my first trip into comic books, shortly followed by Mr. Gaiman himself.

I used to get her magazine, until they cancled it (Booooooooo!) but never read any of the Deadline stuff.
