Don't forget about our 'general audience' sister site, www.HIPComics.com.
Like its older sibling it has a nice free gallery and messageboard
which are steadily growing, as well as many of the same artists who
work at HIPComix. You get all that for less than $5 a month, which is
quite the bargain. Click on over today and see what you're missing!
We have good news for those of you 'across the pond'. HIPComix.com is
proud to announce that our billing service (CCBill) has added
EuroBank! Now it is just that much easier to become a member of
HIPComix and see what all the fuss is about.
If you're on the fence about picking up a membership to HIPComix
perhaps this review will help, courtesy of Monica's Reviews:

The Sparkle: Tour
HIPComix is all about Heroines in Peril. They like bondage and boobs,
from what I can see upfront. The cartoons are made using computer
generated 3D models, rather than traditional "drawings." They are
static images - like a comic book, not a cartoon movie. They promise
to update 4.25 times per week. There are 6 regular artists, and 8
special guest artists. At Hipcomix, they "recommend that your screen
be at least 1024 x 768 for maximum viewing pleasure."
The Free area on this site is very generous - 6 large galleries. There
are covers galleries for this year and last, preview galleries for
this year and last, an archive gallery, and a guest artists' gallery.
The Decor: Layout
The terminology they use on this site is kind of confusing. On the
main page after you log in, you will see 14 different "albums," each
featuring work by a particular artist. Clicking on one of these albums
will take you to a group of more albums. Each of these albums is an
issue of a comic book. You can click on each page to enlarge it, to
better view the pictures and read the text.
On the left hand side of the screen there is a search bar, a link to
RSS feeds, View the Latest Updates, View Slideshow, and View Slideshow
(fullscreen). Below that is a Random Image generator, which shows
clickable random images from the site.
The Gold: Content
The most remarkable thing about this site is its size. It is simply
huge. Just like the classic comics, these comix are action packed,
with plenty of comic relief. But if you like superheroines in peril,
tied up and abused, then these are the comics you want. There is
lavish attention paid to intricate torture devices, and evil plots
galore. The plot lines range from classic bad guy vs, superheroine, to
supernatural, to pirates, to space travel, to split personalities... and
some are extremely well developed. While not every tale held my
attention, many did. And not just for the plot.
There are two ways to view the comix - either by clicking on each
image, or as a slideshow. The slideshow runs very smoothly, and you
can really customize your experience: how long to delay between image
changes, the direction of play (forward, reverse, or random), the max
size of the images (6 choices, from 320 x 320 to 1280 x 1280, or no
limit), and how to fade the images as they change (16 choices,
including blend, pinwheel, rain, etc.).
The images are very sharp and clear, of course, and some artists' work
is amazingly detailed - you can count the freckles on Pink Pussycat's
nose... and other parts. Of course some stories are better than others,
and most are serialized, with new "issues" continuing the story as the
updates are published. Some stories are longer than others, some are
more action than sex, and some are more sex than action - but all
feature the requisite blondes, boobs, and bondage.
The Bling: Extras
Clicking on Links (found at the very bottom of any page) will take you
to a page of ads for like-minded websites.
The Price: $$$
$5.99 for 3 days trial, then $16.99 recurring every 30 days
$19.95 for 30 days, then $16.99 recurring every 30 days
$69.99 for 180 days, then $39.99 recurring every 90 day
The Rating: 8/10
The navigation needs some work, but there's lots to explore.

So if a professional website review company like Monica's Reviews is
impressed by the sheer size and scope of HIPComix, then we must be
doing something right. With all the membership options we offer, you
can't afford NOT to try it out!
Of course the bread and butter of our site is its HUGE members area,
filled with nearly 12,500 adult comic pages for your viewing pleasure.

Ever wonder what happens to the heroes that just don't quite fit in

you wear sandals?
