But these guys do have a point. As a fellow writer, I'm going to try not to be too critical (and I can slip into that mode quite easily), so I should throw on the *disclaimer* here and say this is all my personal opinions on erotic hypno storytelling.
The main goal of the stories here has been, and should be, mind controlling these sexy women. When a story starts to meander from that, and we get issues that try and be something other than erotic mind control stories, I think that's a problem. Thankfully, Mr. Cryptic delivers on the goods quite frequently.
And that leads into part 2... doing it TOO MUCH. Whoa, whoa, wait up, I hear you all saying. Too much of a good thing?!
What I mean is that doing the same thing over and over blunts the impact of doing it. It can work once or twice, but after awhile the spark in your erotic mind control love life starts to fade and you need to freshen things up.
And that can be by having the heroine WIN. Have her obtain her highest highest... because that means that what follows up has to be her lowest lows. I write my stories fully thinking about contrasts, how much the heroine changes, how much the relationship between villain and master changes, and how much the relationships involve change. The greater the contrast, the greater the fall, and the more rewarding the naughty hypno shenanigans.
When a heroine, no matter how powerful, falls under hypnosis and mind control at the drop of a hat, the challenge is lost. There is something to be said for an inevitable struggle; it's exciting, it's tension, it's build-up. It's raising the climax and waiting for the payoff. Sometimes, a good story has a fulfilling payoff after a long struggle and that powerful heroine that was annoying the villain the whole time finally ends up as his or her docile hypno slave pet... sometimes there isn't any payoff.
This is rambling now, but I think Ishtar's got the most important parts of "MC" Comix down... and I love it. Now all she needs in future stories is a little... finesse. Give the poor gal some wiggle room to have some successes and pitfalls and she'll become more than just hypno fodder. Once she grows as a character, that makes her falls into hypnotic bliss even MORE rewarding.

This is what i've been trying to say!! I know this site is about superheroines being mind controlled !! My favorite artist Mr. Cryptic has made this very clear, as well as the artists and the fans have done in this forums!! But as you have said, why can't the heroines win sometime, your right !! it is more interesting when a heroine is known to have a strong will, and you know the villain is going to have a fight on his hands!! It does make it much more exciting when the villain finally does mind control the heroine if the villain has to struggle to do it!! Let see the heroines have some sexual encounters with non-villains too, not always with villains!! I know the site is about heroines falling victim to mind control and being used by villains. I think the artists see themself as the villain and the stories are basically about what they would do to trap and gain control of the heroine and what they would do once they gained that control,which is ok!! But i'd still like to see the heroines win sometime and have some pleasure with non-villain sometime.
I don't want the artists to think i'm putting their work down or demanding that theme!! Why would i remain a member,if i didn't enjoy the theme of the stories on this site!! I'm only requesting to see some stories with that theme, are should i say i'm hoping to see some stories with that theme, i'm not demanding that artist's make stories with that theme, i'm just asking!! These only thing that turns me off are stories are a site where the stories are about hurting ,torturing or physically abusing the heroine. I don't enjoy torture!! that these only thing that will ever make me cancel my membership, point being i think the artists, and the stories are OUTSTANDING!!
Is there a adult site that feature superheroines that is like mainstream comics, where the heroines defeat evil, that feature nudity and sex?? By sex, i mean with someone the heroine likes or cares for, of the heroine own free will. Is there such a site????
