Why Does Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles Hate Women?

It may seem silly to critique an ad campaign for violent imagery when said ads appear in comic books, which even in mainstream DC and Marvel tend to feature wall-to-wall disembowelment.

But come on. What is this, The Tween Girl Snuff Variety Hour?


I know that this girl is a robot. I know she is looking meaningfully at the viewer and showing no pain. But magazine and comic ads are all about the first impression, and the first impression these ads are presenting is abused, mauled up pretty girl. I'm just saying. Like we don't already get enough S&M porn in comics.
