Judaism is the world's most obsessive-complusive book club. Every week, religous Jews read a portion or "parsha" of the Hebrew Bible, so that at the end of a year we've read the whole thing. Then we start all over again. Every week we create a comic based on that week's Torah portion.
I have spent way too much time over the years reading your cartoons, so this was a little scary. Thank you. Unfortunately, my site only just moved (the old one was closed down by the host - spit, hiss) and is now at http://www.talmudcomics.net/.
actually, in my humble opinion - these comics are not done in good taste. Tznius-modesty is part of Torah. Certainly this is not shown in your comics by way of the woman with all curves and men clinging to her under her breasts.
you might be interested in the Jamician rapper that converted to Judaism - He is Orthodox now. I have a video of him on my website. As well as others that converted to Judaism via Orthodox conversion.
A couple of things - first, I don't presume more modesty than Chazal, who saw fit to bring stories from all aspects of life to teach us - as I'm sure you know from Berachot 62a, everything is a matter of Torah, and we are required to learn. The comic which (I think?) you refer to, a man (not men) clinging to a woman, in fact shows a clothed, religious, married couple (R Meir and Beruriah) in private. Often a person shown to be adhering less to tziniut will be drawn in this way to show contrast with a more righteous person, as in this case, where an immodest secular man assaults Rav Kahana: http://www.talmudcomics.net/berachot_yerushalmi_1.jpg
Being a woman, a woman's "curves" do not trouble me. If they trouble you, you should not read. But of course, you don't need me to tell you that. :)
If you wish to clear something up, please email me - I tried yours, but it bounced.

Thanks for your humbleness, Tidbits. :)
