Women Hunt
From Tv Tropes
Part of the Fansadox franchise of webcomics.
A World Half Empty where a comet hit the Earth, and left it in ruins. Humanity's last hope for survival and civilization is Mars... which is run by a sadistic former convict.
- Contains examples of
- AbhorrentAdmirer: Mad Satan to the women he likes. He knows it and plays with the concept, because he knows he'll get what he wants.
- AdaptationExpansion: Everything that follows the novel. What took a couple of pages for Mad Satan's catch to be delivered, it took four image issues of 40+ pages each, full of ContinuityPorn until then. And then it stopped. The revival is pacing apparently as slow.
- AfterTheEnd: Women Hunt in general (and the novel).
- AllMenArePerverts: StrawFeminist Colonel Wasp notes this ... it's arguable if she noticed the HypocriticalHumor involved.
- AllWomenAreLustful: UnfortunateImplications All Lesbians Are Horny And Active. A little justified in that they're oppressed on Earth and can't really find partners, but still...
- AmazonBrigade: The lesbian brigade.
- ApocalypseHow: Class 2: asteroid/comet hit Earth, most civilization is destroyed, remainder is hunted down and brought to Mars by criminal space bounty-hunters.
- ArsonMurderandJayWalking: Mad Satan is a... man *gasp*:
--> Colonel Wasp: Mad Satan may be a mutated psychic killer and suspected cannibal, but even worse... he's a man ! All men are hairy apes AllMenArePerverts who think with their dicks, and Mad Satan's no different. [follows a long rant on why men are disgusting]
- AwesomeYetPractical: The torturing devices.
- BaldWomen: Mad Satan prefers one of his slaves like that, for both humiliation and BeyondTheImpossible for her to put her head in his butt.
- BountyHunter.
- BrainsAndBondage: Mad Satan.
- ButchLesbian: Wasp.
- CareerKillers: Colonel Wasp.
- CityPlanet: Mars in Women Hunt.
- CompleteMonster: Wasp and her superiors, Mad Satan and his own cronies.
- ColonelBadass: Colonel Wasp.
- ContinuityReboot: Mars Penal Colony feels like that: it's based on the same novel, but it's drawn/created by a different author, it obviously got a different style, its events happen prior the continuity of the novel and the original Women Hunt series while acknowledging that it's in the same Universe (thus avoiding ContinuityLockout), it's got a different name/brand altogether ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and it's TropeOverdosed (to be read: full of TropesAreNotGood every cliche available for that setting).
- CosmicDeadline: Arguable if it was even tried. The four ”Women Hunt” comics, having roughly 50 pages each, barely manage to get to where the 20 pages of novel had gone to. And then it ends. With the girls being shipped to Mad Satan's grasps.
- CrapsackWorld: It's revealed the Earth wasn't too pretty JustBeforeTheEnd either.
- CronicBackstabbingDisorder: Colonel Wasp is a PsychoLesbian assassin sent to kill Mad Satan. She InnerMonologue comments this about her "lover":
--> Ha Ha! You AllWomenAreLustful horny NWordPrivileges dyke ! I should write you up for ProfessionalSlacker slacking off on duty ! I could throw you in the brig and have you try to convince me you'd be a good girl if I let you out. Humm ! That's something I should remember for later...
- DeadFic: The novel ends right smack in the middle.
- Death from Above: The asteroid/comet
- ElectricTorture.
- EvilVsEvil: Mars Penal Colony is made of this.
- FateWorseThanDeath: Being given to Mad Satan.
- FunWithAcronyms: WHIP-ONE is supposed to stand for something ... but we don't really get to know for what.
- GenreBlind: Colonel Wasp and the whole AmazonBrigade, especially TooDumbToLive her lover.
- HumansAreBastards: Both the rulers of Earth and of Mars.
- HollywoodHomely: Mad Satan was presented as a mutant in the original novel, and an ugly one at that (judging at least from the art). In Women Hunt, he wasn't really ugly, but not something you'd want to see. By Mars Penal Colony, while some CompleteMonster traits have been added to his already deranged personality, he's reached pimp levels, including his face and him wearing what look like gold chains around his neck.
- IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: The lesbian guards pull this off in the revival number. They're probably set up for the subversion in the next number.
- ImAHumantarian: Mad Satan is RetConned into a suspected cannibal too...
- InnerMonologue.
- JustBeforeTheEnd: Mars Penal Colony is set in April 2049. That's less than a year before the comet/asteroid hits.
- RightWingMilitiaFanatic: That's what rules the U.S. before the end.
- LipstickLesbian: Wasp's partner.
- LosAngeles: Collins (the heroine) was caught (and probably lived) there.
- MarsNeedsWomen: Literally. And booze and smokes.
- MarkOfShame: Collins gets branded so that, if Mad Satan would tear her to pieces, they'd at least know who it was.
- MeaningfulName: WHIP-ONE, CompleteMonster Mad Satan, ColonelBadass Colonel CronicBackstabbingDisorder Wasp.
- MercyKill: Implied, but probably never done.
- MoreExpendableThanYou: Collins is expected to be this, but Wasp promptly reminds her she's not (technically, she's less expendable for Wasp and less interesting for Mad Satan).
- NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: CompleteMonster Mad Satan, ColonelBadass Colonel ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Wasp...
- NotDistractedByTheSexy: Colonel Wasp's girlfriend thinks Wasp's mere presence will give him a heart attack so she won't have to kill him. You know, the guy that has tens of naked women per month around him, humiliated in every possible way. Wasp is not so convinced. Either way, neither seem to know how BlatantLies well it worked whenever a woman in a Fansadox world would claim this...
- NWordPrivileges: Colonel Wasp calls her "girlfriend" a horny dyke in her InnerMonologue.
- OverlyLongTongue: Mad Satan extends his slaves' tongues.
- PenalColony: Mars.
- ThePlace: Mars Penal Colony.
- PowerPerversionPotential: The entire series is based around this (more obvious in the novel and in Mars Penal Colony): The systems Mad Satan employs is based on "correctional" options which kept hardened criminals in line, and while they were used in severe way, they were still LawfulNeutral. Now he's monitoring women's brains, telling the supercomputer what to do with the information so to break their spirit better, uses the entire system to control every man on Mars and keep them in line (read: he could kill or torture mentally whoever didn't follow his rules).
- PsychoLesbian: Colonel Wasp.
- TheResolutionWillNotBeTelevised: Unless a miracle happens, the main Women Hunt Universe won't have a resolution. Most likely DeadFic the novel too.
- TheRedPlanet: The setting.
- RoboticTortureDevice.
- SadisticShow: You can't root for any of the "main characters" in Mars Penal Colony, because Andrea is going to have a FateWorseThanDeath anyway, and Earth officials, Wasp and Mad Satan are all strongly into CompleteMonster territory.
- SpaceMarine.
- StrawFeminist: Colonel Wasp and her AmazonBrigade.
- ThatMakesMeFeelAngry: Yeah, we got that it's humiliating and it hurts in the last 265 issues...
- ThisIsMyStory: Andrea Collins' story in Mars Penal Colony.
- ThrownOutTheAirlock: It's suggested as a MercyKill in contrast to what happens to girls that are taken to Mad Satan:
--> You must know about Mad Satan and his outrageous demands, colonel, He kept demanding new playmates, one after another until there were none left. It would have been more humane to just kick the bimbos out the airlock and finish them off FateWorseThanDeath quickly.
- UnCanceled: Takes the record from Webcomic/ConfiscatedTwins, although it's more of a ContinuityReboot.
- YouAreNumberSix: Almost a ShoutOut:
--> Collins: The searing agony tore through my leg, and I knew that a part of my humanity had been ripped away from me. I'd never be the same again. It didn't matter if I lived another 50 years or 5 minutes. From this point on LampshadeHanging I was nothing more than a number. DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment A useless number at that.
