Unfortunately, a lot of these stories really didn’t land for me.
These sexy erotic comics continue to hit the spot. They are queer and trans-inclusive. They feature the widest range of body types in any erotic comics I've ever read, and this one features monsters as well! The anthology mixes tones, styles, and genres, but most stories have some fun elements, and all are arranged to follow nicely into each other.
My favorites were:
An Offer for the Maiden by Vesta Z. — I loved how this looked at masculinity from the perspective of a trans man who wants a relationship with a goddess who is known to sacrifice men. He woos her. Both the man and the goddess are plus-sized, and the man is hairy and has breasts, a representation that I appreciate.
Girl Fiend by Innkeeperworm — This story hits one of my favorite tropes: the monster tempts the "innocent" human and then they have a great time. The monster and tone are the perfect amount of scary, while this story acknowledges that this isn't a monster who's just been misunderstood. The art here was fabulous, and I loved the monster's goat-wolf form and how that translated into her human shape, too. Some of my favorite art.
For Your Eyes Only by Nero Villagallos O'Reilly - Yes, for monsters that aren't all cutesy. This one is a little in the face, but the rest of her body is just weird. The human woman's perspective as a scientist and living in isolation is unique to this collection. Plus, I'm always down for fisting.
Bisclavret by Rowan Woodcock — Not all monster stories end in a HEA.
In Every Corner by Visceraaa — Another not all monster girlfriends are conventionally attractive, and some are your sleep paralysis demon. I loved how this played with the human wearing her sleeping mask during sex, but the ultimate connection moment came when she removed it momentarily, and then they continued.
MonstHER Under the Bed by Bont and Wes Brooke — This is a sweet little polycule that's playing a fun sex game. All the characters are cute: a human-like goat, a kangaroo, and a slimy tentacle monster. What everyone's polycule is made of.
Neighborly Help by Harriet Moulton — A vampire needs blood, and it's good that her neighbor, a siren, is ready to help. I loved this imagining of the siren in her green sea monster form, another monster being a monster.
Forest Wedding by Otava Heikkilä —I loved the size difference between the forest goddess and the human trans man in this politically arranged marriage. Trans guys can be short, but this forest goddess is oversized in every way, including her personality and her expectations of him. Plus, yes to more fisting.
