Fansadox

Basically... yeah

How about Fansadox BDSM Stories, just the descriptions will make me loose sleep for a month! -- NC17 to all you wanks (possible Gorn)

—Comment in archived discussion related to the "High Octane Nightmare Fuel" page on TV Tropes

Fansadox is a BDSM pornographic comic franchise centered around rough BDSM play, the beating and rape of women. As it's expected, being made for a specific niche, readers will have reactions ranging from Squick to High Octane Nightmare Fuel to beyond that. In rare cases, it can even turn to snuff.

It consists of contributions from several artists with several (and highly different) way of drawing, or even thinking. This obviously results in different numbers with different stories.

In more recent issues, the company has made several disclaimer pages, almost mocking the porn industry, in which the fictional cartoon characters swear they're over 18 and that they are actually BDSM (sometimes paid) actors who enjoyed every moment of it. Hilarity Ensues, but it also becomes a Narm moment as you realise they appear in just about any issue, from when they started using it so to not have trouble with the US law, fact confirmed by creator Gary Roberts himself (link).

Tropes used in Fansadox include:

A-E

• Abhorrent Admirer: The main kind of abusers. Women find them repulsive.
• Acceptable Targets: Anything and anyone. Special mention to the US, Russia, the Arab World and Africa (though no countries mentioned).
• Action Girl.
• Affectionate Parody: Entire comics based on Frankenstein and other well known works are just that: Frankenstein with porn! There's usually little Take That at the original work, since it's playing the story straight, only involving many many women at their service.
• After the End: Women Hunt, Sex Wars.
• Ain't Too Proud to Beg: The girls, swinging from "stalling for time" to "they mean it" once they're broken.
• All Abusers Are Male: Mostly played straight.
• All Men Are Perverts: Taken to extremes.
• All Take and No Give: The masters to the slaves. Then they accuse the slaves of living off their back.
• All Women Are Lustful: While not true from the outside perspective, all men will tell the women this repeatedly. Eventually, some will start to behave like this.
• All Women Are Prudes: Played with in the first hundred issues or so to facilitate a Break the Cutie story.
• All Your Base Are Belong to Us: US gets invaded from the inside or from the outside more often than one would think possible.
• Alone with the Psycho: The introduction of a lot of stories.
• Alternate History: China Takes Over the World. Other stories are placed Twenty Minutes Into the Future, including a female compulsory enslaving law, a slave-hunting world...
• Amazon Brigade: Very few women resistance groups manage to make these (or keep them for long), but they're present in some.
• Ancient Rome: Some stories are set there, one is even called that, or similar.
• And I Must Scream. Some of the girls end up in this situation quite literally.
• Anything That Moves: Averted in the first hundred issues, where the targets were only pretty barely 18 women.
• Apocalypse How: Class 2 in Women Hunt, Sex Wars and a few others.
• Art Evolution: The first issues were almost horrible in art compared to the more recent ones.
• Authority Equals Asskicking: Ranks in post-apocalyptic societies work that way.
• Awesome Yet Practical: The tools used to break women.
• Bad Job, Worse Uniform: Slaves get the bad end of this.
• Bald of Awesome: Inverted in Birthday Gift and Women Hunt, it's for humiliation. Played straight in Slave Tales (for a while, at least).
• Bald of Evil: Many of the male Villain Protagonists.
• Bald Women: Mad Satan of Women Hunt prefers one of his slaves like that, mostly for humiliation; alternately, some authors find this sexy (or easy to draw?) and draw them in directly as a "fashion statement".
• Basement Dweller: Some of the male protagonists.
• Being Watched: Some start with this.

• Breaking in Old Habits.
• Break the Cutie.
• Break the Haughty.
• Burn the Witch: After you torture the living daylights out of her.

• Covert Pervert: Many abusers pretend to be social role models. Then, they have women tortured in the basement.
• Crapsack World: While most stories aren't situated in the same world, the subtleties are about the same. If you're a "good girl", anyone around you is probably going to want to rape and torture you in the most vile way. Call the police? They're in on it. Captor's neighbor? Friend? Your own family? They're in on it. There is no escape! As part of a crapsack world, most officials are corrupt:
  • Corrupt Church;
  • Corrupt Corporate Executive;
  • Corrupt Hick.

• Depraved Bisexual: Most women that are on the other side of the whip. Men will only prefer women, for obvious reasons.
• Dirty Old Man.
• Do You Want to Copulate?: This is how men start their "mating game" with women. Less from lack of social skills, and more because they're rich and they think they deserve everything. When it fails miserably, they go to plan B...
• Driven to Suicide: Some girls actually manage to "escape" like this. The captors make sure it won't happen with anyone else.
• Dumb Blonde: Or at least that's how the sadists see them and want to make them.
• Does Not Like Men: Some of the victims are outright lesbians. Some are usually (though often wrongfully implied to be) "frigid".

• Embarrassing Nickname: Taken to extremes in order to break the girls' self-esteem and their idea of being normal human beings.

• Exploitation Series.
  • Nazisploitation.
• Exotic Equipment: The aliens of Abducted, as well as those of Slave Trek One.

F-J

• Face of a Thug: Most Villain Protagonists. It doesn't help that they range from Corrupt Corporate Executives to actual dangerous law-breaking madmen.
• Failure Is the Only Option: For the victims. They seldom try to escape, but even then it's to give a sick thrill to their captor and you can be sure in just a few panels they'll be back to "the operating table".
• The Family That Slays Together: Another good portion of starting plot points.
• Fan Girl: Deconstructed in Hentai Band Horror Orgy: What happens with a Wrong Genre Savvy naive teen when she meets her idols? She gets raped.
• Fate Worse Than Death: The victims usually pray for death after a while.
• Force Feeding: Sometimes becomes necessary.
• Forced to Watch: Sisters, mothers to daughters, lovers etc.

• Going Commando: Girls are forced to do this. Or... worse.
• Gorn.
• Grandpa, What Massive Hotness You Have!: Depending On the Author.
• Great White Hunter. Spoofed: it's a woman hunter. Trope still fits since they're considered this in-world.
• Guns in Church: Played scarily straight especially in After the End stories.
• Hell-Bent for Leather.
• Hellhole Prison.
• He-Man Woman Hater.
• Hollywood Nuns: The whole grid.
• Hope Spot: La Résistance -> there's still some hope to be free. Men breaking in and shooting -> Hope broken.
• Horny Devils: 2 or 3 numbers touch this problem.
• Horny Vikings: #293 is dedicated to them, in both the trope's spirit, and its literal sense.
• Hostage Situation.
  • Hostage Video.
• Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Fat and Proud type.
• Idiot Ball: The men may be dumb hillbillies, but the women who believe themselves so smart aren't that much in front of them either. They'll get into Obvious Traps just to keep their jobs or because they've had an Idiot Ball glued to their hands by the writers.
• If You Ever Do Anything to Hurt Her...: You know how that ends...
• I Have Boobs - You Must Obey!: It never works.
• I Have You Now, My Pretty: Although the victimized women are more referred to as "slut", "whore" or "bitch" instead of "My pretty".
• I Have Your Wife.
• I Kiss Your Foot.
• Improbably Cool Car: Having post-apocalyptic settings give large possibility over the design of a car.
• Incorruptible Pure Pureness: If they're men, they'll break. If they're women... they'll break in a different way. If they're men and won't break, they'll be killed. Simple as that.
• Inner Monologue: Fansadox trademark: swearing and pleading to God in their head. It doesn't help.
• Institutional Apparel: Orange jumpsuits in Reformatory School For Lost Girls.
• It Gets Worse: Often lampshaded by the torturers.
• I Showed Her What A Real Man Is: Frequent MO of the male rapists.
• Jerkass: Even when they have the law on their side and their victims obedient, they still like to hurt them just to be a douche about it.
• If You Know What I Mean:

  Valet boy at a hotel: By the saints! This must be his excellency's harem! Father O'Mally is going to have to give me extra penance this Sunday... because I'm having impure thoughts right now!

K-O

• Karma Houdini: If you are an abuser, you will never suffer for it in this series.
• Klingon Promotion: Rarely happens, especially in stable (even if otherwise fucked-up) societies.
• La Résistance: They're hiding, underfed, unhelped, their ranks are being broken every day, there are specialized hunters on their trail, without a chance in hell, but they're still there... for plot and sadists.
• Les Yay: Mostly when the torturers are female or when the women are forced into invoking this by their tormentors.
• Locked Away in a Monastery: Both the literal version of this, and the sex type.
• Los Angeles: The Great Invasion and the beginning of the reboot of Women Hunt are placed there.
• Made a Slave.
• Maid of Sexy. Again, broken.
• Mars Needs Women: Played literally in Women Hunt. Also in stories set in space.
• Me Love You Long Time: Inverted, including the love part.
• Men Are Uncultured. Smelly. Slobs. Lazy. Abusive. But they sure compensate... And it's implied they don't need more than that, anyway.
• Mind Rape: Quite common.
• Minion with an F In Evil: Deconstructed with Norville from "Psycho". The poor guy wasn't as willing at first, that's why he pretty much sucked at being evil. The Master knew this, and taunted and tried to turn him every turn he had.
• Missing White Woman Syndrome: Played straight in issues which deal with the abduction and training of girls from other countries or other races than white.
• Momma's Boy: There's even one number named like that.
• Moving the Goalposts: When it's not outright "I Lied".
• Mutilation Interrogation: Very rare, but present in the Chinese Warlord series.
• My Girl Is a Slut: Men in the series take sadistic glee in attempting to justify this trope.

• Naughty Tentacles: #74 Abducted
• Naughty Under the Table: Yet another common form of female degradation depicted.
• Negative Continuity: Except for a few continued series.
• No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Some series that risk going into Gorn territory do this to their female protagonists.
• Not Distracted by the Sexy: Brutally subverted, to the sorrow and horror of every woman depicted.
• Not My Driver.
• No Woman's Land.
• Nuns Are Spooky: And naughty too.
• Oblivious Younger Sibling: Usually subverted after the first 5 seconds a family member enters and finds abused women, pretending to be horrified. It always turn out for them to be in on it. The only times it's played straight is with the daughters or young women, who are in some mob-like business and don't want it to be known.
• Only Six Faces: Most women in the same series have similar faces. If you're looking at the works of the same author, you may think "new" characters are literally the reincarnations of old ones.
• Orphaned Series: Many, many series do not have a sequel (although the author will continue onto other series). Many have a "To be continued" at the end, only to never have a continuance. Hell, it's safer to say that half the stories in the series don't claim to continue the story, half claim but don't, and a small portion that is neither get actual sequels. And even fewer get Uncanceled.
• O-Ring Orifice: The things that get stuffed in different orifices, "won't fit", but fit anyway... with some bleeding sometimes, but they fit and we never hear about serious injury again.
• Over-the-Shoulder Carry: Happens very often.

P-T

• Pirate: Type 1 pirates, both in the 18th century in books like "Caribbean Pirates" and "Barbary Corsairs" and modern day Somalian pirates in others.
• Place Worse Than Death: Siberia in several occasions, and Africa and the Arab-speaking world are presented as the worst place to even take a vacation in.
• Poisonous Captive: Used as a plot device in one story.
• Police Are Useless: Dumb as a brick or corrupt.
• Porn Stash: From your 40ish Basement Dweller to your successful business man or even women, all characters seem to possess one.
• Power Perversion Potential: The entire Women Hunt is based around this.
• Prison Rape: Both male-on-female and male-on-male examples.
• Psycho Ex-Girlfriend: Happens at least in #168 - Evil Parole
• Psycho for Hire: Prevalent in Women Hunt.
• Psycho Lesbian: Most women that aren't tortured will usually be this.
• Psycho Psychologists: "Mad Madhouse", "Siberian Madhouse" and "Cracked Bombshell" stand out.
• Rape and Switch: Sex to "turn women straight" is depicted as generally being successful, in blatant defiance of real world logic.
• Rape Is Love: Usually averted, the torturers want their victim not to love every moment of their ordeal.
• Rape Is Ok When It Is Female On Female: The main kind of Unfortunate Implication is averted for the stories with female on female rape, it's just as bad if not worse.
• Rape Is Ok When It Is Female On Male: Oh so subverted.
• Rape, Pillage and Burn: About a quarter of the numbers start with this premise.

• Robotic Torture Device: Abundant in technological evolved worlds.

• Sacrificial Lamb: Many, just to show how sadistic in their deeds the men are.
• Sadist Show: Some of the issues can turn into this when the girls taken were not much better when they were free. In fact, they wind up in a worse situation most of the time.
• Scarpia Ultimatum.
• Scary Black Man: Many issues set in Sub-Saharan Africa or Harlem and in various other issues make frequent use of this stereotype.
• Scenery Porn: With the advance of technology, adding cool sceneries has become an easy thing (depending on the artist's talent, too). Since about the 200th issue and the introduction of new artists, many pages are concentrated on the awesome background of the place it's talking about than about the female body.
• Screw the Money, I Have Rules: Some of the sadists will give up big sums of money that they could receive for their rich hostages just for the chance of breaking the girls and never letting them go. A weird example of Even Evil Has Standards ... standards that in practice are evil too.
• Secret-Chaser: Any woman in this position will be quickly spotted and taken to rape quarters. Men are implied to not be so lucky.
• Secret Police: The Junta double comic. Also some 3rd world countries.
• Seemingly-Wholesome Fifties Girl: Some of the victims.
• Sensible Heroes, Skimpy Villains: Inverted: The girls are made to dress slutty, while the men dress ordinary.
• Sequel Escalation: Where there are sequels, also in the general run of all Fansadox works.
• Series Hiatus: While the entire Fansadox franchise will probably not suffer from this in the future (because of multiple authors, new authors always appearing and being a Cash Cow Franchise), announced sequels of individual issues do this all the time.
  • Or simply put, Never Trust a "To Be Continued" caption.
• Servile Snarker: When there's a duo, one will almost certainly be a snarker. Usually, not to the other, but to the captured women.

• Snuff Film: Some bad guys are actually in this business.
• So Beautiful It's a Curse: Many women in these stories are targeted specifically because of their beauty.
• Soft Glass: Most of the times played straight, Shown Their Work once:

Can't fall through... Broken glass'll kill me. But must alert neighbors...!Annie, #121 The Snatcher

• Southern Belle: Mrs. O'Hara and her two daughters in "1850, White Slaves".
• Spies in a Van.
• Stalker with a Crush.
• Stalker with a Test Tube: The female party in Sex Wars are shown to use these to get their attackers' sperm, so they can procreate.
• Standard Fifties Father: These are usually the types of older abusers.
• STD Immunity: Some stories Hand Wave that all venereal diseases have been cured in the near future, some don't bother and some thoroughly subvert it regarding veneric diseases. Pregnancy is more common.
• Straw Feminist: They will usually be the main victims.
• Strictly Formula: A female character possessing any amount of innocence and/or dignity at the start of the story will have it all taken away in the most horrifying way possible by the final page. Or by page three.
  • Alternately, man courts woman, woman says he's a pig, man plans and employs Disproportionate Retribution.
  • Woman/women are on a deserted road, needing a lift and thinking the dude is hot/harmless. He's NOT.
  • A couple or a group of women take a tour of diverse interests to an exotic country. Tragedy ensues.
  • A disaster has happened, there are either no more rules, or rules are modified for the pleasure of strong. Women always get the shorter end of the stick.

• A Taste of the Lash: The usual torture method of the franchise.
• The Taxi: Taxi Cab Mafia.
• Telepathic Space Amazons: It doesn't really help them...
• Tempting Fate: Pretty much every girl that managed to escape for the time being, or worse, who for a moment think they turned the table on the captors.
• This Is My Story: Some girls tend to tell their story. One even declares she's forced to, for her masters.
• To Be Continued: A lot get this line slapped at the end, few are actually continued.
• Torture Always Works: Played straight all the time.
• Torture Cellar: Played straight and many variations on it.
• Trauma Conga Line: So abused. Victims fall from A to F, B being the rarest.
• Trap Door: There was one in at least one strip.
• Trope Overdosed: Mainly because each number is set in virtually a different world with different characters, and around 10 artists, each with their own worlds, contribute here. That makes the range of tropes fall all over the grid.
• Tragedy: Implicit for the women.
• Twenty Minutes Into the Future: Some of the stories are placed then.
• Twincest: Usually with blond barely 18 year old sisters.
• Twin Telepathy: Alluded in one comic that two twin girls could sense each other's feelings.
• Two Plus Torture Makes Five: Used on practically every woman in the series.

U-Z
