If you’ve always wanted to see your favorite comic-strip characters in compromising positions, now’s your chance: NYC’s Museum of Sex’s newest exhibit, Comics Stripped, dedicated to the art of sexually explicit comics through history.
Part of the exhibit’s description:
From simple titillation to hardcore representations, comics have a long history of incorporating humor, scandal, fantasy and fun with sex. Originally used as a form of amusement and satire intended for adults, the societal perception of comics as wholesome entertainment geared toward children has made the inclusion of sexual content particularly jarring for portions of the general public.
One iconic image in the exhibit: Marge Simpson on the cover of the November 2009 issue of Playboy.
