Sky Doll is a science fiction comic written, drawn and colored by Italian artists Alessandro Barbucci and Barbara Canepa (of W.I.T.C.H. fame).In this story, sky dolls are sentient robots made for a multitude of jobs— mainly for the pleasure of males. Papathea, the planet the story begins in, is entirely dominated by a Theocracy that keeps power by a mix of manipulation of the masses, fake miracles and an iron rule. Oh, and by double standards: women on this planet are mostly oppressed and forced to conform to an impossible ideal of chastity but men are allowed to "sin" without guilt as long as it's with the dolls.Noa is one of many dolls, working in the "Heavenly Carwash", car washes with some heavy fanservice. Noa is unusual for her kind as she dreams and feels she could do better — most dolls tend to take their virtual slavery situation quite lightly. Roy and Jabu are emissaries of the papacy on the road to Aqua for a peace treaty, who decide to make a quick stop on the carwash. Noa, after making a mess of a situation and deciding that enough is enough, stows away in the guys ship. After being discovered and with the reluctance of Jabu, she joins the expedition and learns more about herself and how messed up the situation on her planet really is.So far books 1-3 have been released in French, Spanish, Danish, Japanese, Polish and English (the former by Marvel Comics), though Heavy Metal Magazine published all three books in a single issue about a year before the announcement. The fourth issue, Sudra, has finally come out, after about five years of Development Hell. Two volumes of short stories have been published; Space Ship Collection and Lacrima Christi, the first being a prequel about Noa's life before the story began, and the other being a bunch of side stories.

Little Bit Beastly: The main cast appear to be cat people. The Aquarians have more fishlike facial features with very human anatomy (including boobs). Noa is pretty much a robotic Cat Girl, as are all of the other dolls.

comment
Humanoid Popsicle: In the main Sky Doll comic #2 it seemed, that Jahu committed total genocide with just one shot by killing the "holy fish", the key to reproduction of the completely female race of Aqua. But in the side story comic Lacrima Christi #1 it's revealed that Agape somehow foresaw this genocide attempt by Ludovica and the main guru of the Aquarians was put into some kind of transformation chamber, that made "her" into a "him", so that the Aquarians may reproduce sexually. Off-screen fun, hinted at by one of the servant bots ("I have the feeling this new journey will be less spiritual and more ... lively.") ensues.

Big Brother Is Watching: When Frida Decibel interviews Jahu and Roy following their return from planet Aqua, she tries to spice the show up by bringing up footage of their everyday life during their mission, recorded using cameras hidden all over their ship, even inside the bathroom. Roy is not amused, especially since Jahu was apparently aware of the surveilance.

comment
Curtains Match the Window: Amusingly, not the typical hair-and-eyes example. When Roy touches Noa's hand for the first time, he's surprised at how soft it is. She is more than eager to point out that's not the only soft spot on her body, and given she's a Sky Doll, it's easy to guess where that line would've gone if her boss didn't interrupt her mid-sentence.

Madonna-Whore Complex
 Sky Doll (Comic Book) / int_b097493c
comment
Madonna-Whore Complex: Oh, lord, yes. Normal women have more comparative autonomy but are held up to impossible standards of chastity. Robot women, the Sky Dolls, are actively prevented from developing complex personalities at all and are seen as walking, talking boob and booty dispensers. Seen at work with The Sisters: Ludovica is decried by the Miraculatore for representing earthly desire by being greedy, vain and lustful; Agape is exalted for being charitable, "modest" and virginal as the spiritual aspect. The Miraculatore willfully ignores the fact that Agape is just as, if not MORE SO, perverted note  Going by “Papess for a Day” in Lacrima Christi #1 and various statues on Sudra, Agape was a HUGE fan of lookalikes, sadism, voyeurism and non-penetrative sex, when it physically involved her at all and ambitious note  Agape’s own words and the Miraculatore’s monologue in Sudra implies she wanted to not only lead the church but be legitimately worshipped as its GOD than Ludovica. The clergy may have actually done Papathea a favor having her murdered.

Author Filibuster: Someone's got a problem with church and state not being separated, or with a church's power gone berserk. It's the tyrannical Ludovica who's apparently the big problem, and a significant population wants the more moderate vanished Papessa Agape to come back. There was a lot of such business way back in Ye Middle Agese, with occasionally pope/antipope fights between factions. See the Medici family and the Borgia family. Both authors have spoken about their huge dislike of organized religion, and in recent issues it has been revealed that Agape was no saint, and probably even more monstrous than Ludovica. Also, the treatment regime on Aqua is a not-so-subtle dig at Scientology's similar shenanigans.

Imperiled in Pregnancy
 Sky Doll (Comic Book) / int_c02a3bf2
comment
Imperiled in Pregnancy: Noa has a very graphic hallucination where she is pregnant and her womb rips out. But it's all in a dream... or is it? Not entirely. Noa seems to be the carrier of a clone fetus of Agape and is somehow possessed by Agape's soul/spirit.

The Dulcinea Effect: Roy becomes attached to and protective toward Noa at around the same time she falls into his ship.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: Lacrima Christi is the name of an Italian wine. A chapter from Spaceship has some dolls dress up as anime heroines. One of them is Sailor Moon. "Age of Aqua" = "Age of Aquarius."

Messianic Archetype: Agape and possibly Noa with powers to back it up. Ludovica masquerades as this.

Religion Is Wrong
 Sky Doll (Comic Book) / int_d0c563ad
comment
Religion Is Wrong: Or at least, religion: distracts the masses from the issues in the now and here (as seen during the grand Ludovican show) outright brainwashes these masses up to the point of minimising sensible and critical thought is a tool for controlling these masses makes gigantic business out of people's faith is an undignified circus to maximise the loyalty of the masses directs worship towards flattened, polished images of figures who in fact can be, and are pretty much anything as persons go divides people into categories according to artificial definitions of worthiness cultivates even more artificial and even laughable values (case in point: believer women are expected to wear highly concealing and obstructive pyramid-like robes, while any kind of wanton fornication with the Skydolls is never a sin because the dolls are not real people).

What the Hell, Hero?: This series has many but worthy of consideration is the fact that Noa had dolls killed on her escape from her creator.

Hypocrite: In the series proper, the Miracle Genie calls Ludovica a "perverted psycho" behind her back. Lacrima Christi shows he has no right to criticize. NONE WHATSOEVER!

comment
The Cake Is a Lie: In Lacrima Christi #1, a girl named Marie wins a contest and becomes the Papess for one day. At the end of the day, she is raped to insanity, with the high clerics and personnel watching and having a jolly good time. And sees afterwards, that her sister also "won" in the contest.

Only Good People May Pass
 Sky Doll (Comic Book) / int_eb05b0b9
comment
Only Good People May Pass: The story features Aqua, the world of (another) alien species who are devoted to harmony and peace. To keep aggression away, the method of entering Aqua expects that the individual seeking entrance can "purify their mind" through meditating in a specific place. It's proven not quite failsafe when an assassinator manages to enter by using a specific drug.

Mushroom Samba: In order to enter the People of Aqua's city you have to reach a higher level of consciousness. Noa and Roy are able to do this through meditation. Jahu on the other hand just pops some drugs and ends up hallucinating running through a hallway of breasts. This leads to a near-Marshmallow Hell moment of the most epic order.
