Tank Girl is a wacky British indie comic created by artist Jamie Hewlett (later of Gorillaz fame) and written by Alan Martin about a cheerfully sociopathic young woman who lives in a tank, her mutant kangaroo boyfriend Booga, her various bizarre and violent buddies, and knob jokes. Set in the Australian outback, most of its stories pay no attention to reality, the laws of physics, good taste, bad taste, yucky taste or conventional storytelling. Which is probably why it is so damn fun.Frequently Crosses The Line, mostly because the writers don't seem to be aware that there is a line.Tank Girl started as a comic strip in the British magazine Deadline. It was made into a movie in 1995 starring Lori Petty (The voice of Livewire) and also featuring Naomi Watts, Malcolm McDowell, and Ice-T. Unfortunately the movie flopped and was considered by the creators to be a bad adaptation, causing Hewlett and Martin to quit in disgust. The financial failure also caused the collapse of Deadline.For contractual reasons, two mini-series were produced for Vertigo Comics to tie into the film: "The Odyssey", written by Peter Milligan and with art by Hewlett, and "Apocalypse" with neither Martin or Hewlett involved.In the 2000s, Martin has revived Tank Girl for a series of mini-series with various comic companies.Collected editions are:Original Deadline strips Tank Girl Tank Girl 2 Tank Girl 3 The Hole of Tank Girl The Cream of Tank GirlVertigo Comics "contractual obligation" titles Tank Girl: The Odyssey Tank Girl: Apocalypse!2000s Alan Martin titles Tank Girl: The Gifting Tank Girl: Visions of Booga Tank Girl: Skidmarks We Hate Tank Girl Tank Girl: The Royal Escape Tank Girl: Bad Wind Rising Tank Girl: Carioca Everybody Loves Tank Girl Solid State Tank Girl 21st Century Tank Girl Tank Girl: Armadillo! (text novel)And please, for the love of any God you believe, don't confuse this with Girls und Panzer or Tank Vixens for that matter. The multiverse can't handle that crossover. | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| Tank Girl (Comic Book) / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: Booga and the other Rippers are said to be kangaroo-human hybrids created by some handwaved science-y stuff. They barely resemble kangaroos and have fewer kangaroo-like traits as the series goes on. | |

The Lad-ette | |
| Tank Girl (Comic Book) / int_b5060b63 | comment |
The Lad-ette: The main character is one of the first really extreme comics examples of a woman who acts like a frat boy. | |

Fan Disservice | |
| Tank Girl (Comic Book) / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Fan Disservice: Her original design was meant as a "fuck you" to how women were portrayed in comics; in later issues her appearance changed wildly, as a series of "Fuck you"s to pervy Tank Girl fans (along with a general trend of making everyone look grotesque). Any actual sex or suggestion thereof was farcical at best and usually really gross. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Tank Girl (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Many. For example, Tank's black leather battledress with enormous epaulettes in The Royal Escape owes a pretty clear debt to Judge Dredd. The title of Two Girls One Tank is, of course, a reference to the notorious Shock Site video "2 Girls 1 Cup". | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Jet Girl is a little... off. She spent one storyline collecting and numbering rocks, piling them all up in a cairn... and launching a missile at the pile. All to see if, given the exact right trajectory, each rock would end up back in the same area she got it. | |

Unlimited Wardrobe | |
| Tank Girl (Comic Book) / int_d50a5478 | comment |
Unlimited Wardrobe: Tank Girl tends to show up dressed in whatever costume is convenient at the moment. It's never remarked upon where she gets her clothes or when she changes them, all chalked up to the comic's fast-and-loose grasp of continuity. | |

Going Commando | |
| Tank Girl (Comic Book) / int_e32c80d9 | comment |
In the fifth issue of King Tank Girl, the story "Commando" ends with Sub Girl, Jet Girl and Tank Girl flashing their bottoms at Booga and Barney to prove that they were on the third day of their underwear routine (which was not wearing underwear at all after one day of wearing underwear normally and one day of wearing them inside-out). | |

World Gone Mad: The comic starts off in a post-apocalyptic Outback where the world's gone topsy-turvy in order to survive. Then you realize that all these characters are nuts and probably would have been like this even if the world wasn't topsy-turvy. | |
