Origin Story

by M.D. Christopher · October 30, 2024

The first panel, in shades of grey with accents of purple and red, shows the artist - a young woman with short hair wearing a purple t-shirt - lounging on a sofa, chatting on her cellphone. The anthropomorphic representation of her virginity - a white rectangle with arms and legs and a large red V on the front sits on the other end of the couch holding a TV remote. The artist is saying to someone on the phone, "Oh, hey. Not much, just hanging out with my V-Card."

The second panel shows a greyscale, slightly faded version of a very early four-panel comic about virginity. The dialog bubble continues from the first panel as the artist says from off-screen, "Yeah, it started as a gag about virginity as represented by a physical v-card that got large the longer you held onto it. And how mine had lasted long enough to achieve sentience."
