On first glance, you'd be tempted to call Barcelona-based UK artist Battaolo's colorful and finely detailed drawings of his character Suzy Sushi and her friends "cute", or maybe even "cuddly"—until you look closer and realize that they're decked out in latex fetish gear and are holding things like dildos, anal beads, and containers of industrial strength auto lube. (Then again, we tend to think that even dildos, anal beads, and auto lube can be cute and/or cuddly in certain contexts anyway, so maybe there's not too much of a discrepancy here.) Is it too much to hope for an animated version someday? We're getting tired of trying to find something on Adult Swim that turns us on.
