Yeah, this happens a lot, and it's totally legal!!!Well, at least I think it is.
It is really, really really painful to get stabbed in the neck (I got a bruise from last week because of that
)

That's crazy, I've always been curious about fencing so, it stings a bit to learn something like that (I would hope the same spot counts for women, even though it wouldn't have the same "effect"). Anyways, I like the little one page comic, it's funny and well done. Awesome-sauce~

Great comic you have there, i guess what my fencing teacher Doug told us was the neck area is a target area in foil now

Ah, I've done this to my friends an unfortunate number of times...my point control sucks and they never learn from it...
Still funny, though, in a sort of painful way

hahahah, goodness. I always end up doing this in sabre! hahaa.. and always to the same person, i have no idea why

It's worse when the blade goes under the bib and nearly hits your neck. One of my friends got flicked behind the ear and lost hearing for an hour.
IT IS TOTALLY ON TARGET! Hooray for being the only girl on the team!

Ha! yeah, that does happen a lot! I do it quite often to guys..

that sucks. but then again that's exactly why i don't play olympic style. for us, EVERY one of those shots was LEGAL and a KILL. but... our swords are heavier, and our armor thicker, so... i guess it makes sense. too bad you can't wear a gorget, that reduces the pain frm a neck shot hugely

Ugh, all of those happen to me WAY too often... It's painful. D:

Ouch... I think the neck shots actually hurt more, to be honest 0.o

yus! this i have done many times... and it works.... =w=

Haha. That's why my coach makes all the boys wear cups. You must fence foil. In epee and sabre you get stabed in the neck A LOT, because it is target. And in sabre, you get nasty welts when people hit too hard.
Sorry...great comic, by the way. The sadistic side of me just fell off my chair laughing!

If it's foil, then yeah - it's legal. Not that I'd know anything about rules, being an epeeist, although I have dabbled in sabre (and that isn't a mispelling - sabRE not sabER, if your british anyway)

Its true yet funny, I hate it when this kinda stuff happens. It has happened to me in western fencing (this) AND in kendo (japanese fencing)it sucks DX

This is too funny! And true! This one competition my buddy got stabbed there three times, and the third time, even the judge looked at the other guy and was like, WTF?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Ohhhh. This happened last week. Everyone in the club just groaned. >_<. So painful.

...Sadly enough, I've had several close calls of that exact nature against female fencers. ><

-giggles- it's so true!
It also really sucks getting stabbed like.. RIGHT above the BP. Like, the collarbone. ><
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yup, I'm guilty to that too. Lol... I mean, it IS on-target!

I just started fencing a few weeks ago and the thing I think I said most was, "OH MY GOD STOP AIMING FOR MY CHEST YOU PERVERTED PSYCHOPATH!"

*bows before the Salad Bowl* Of course. But I'm so flat I could prolly use a men's chest guard. XD

Unfortunately, that happens to be the main target zone in fencing. Thank the lord for incredibly un-sexy xena-style breastplates.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you may dislike the breastplates for that reason but they're also incredible hard to fence against, the damn swords keep bouncing off without landing properly.

Brilliant ;D
Im learning fencing @ Uni. I've been hit in the neck before. *Gag* Was with a foil & it wasn't on purpose.
But God, you should see all the bruises the epee-ists have on their arms!
Ace pic - loving your work.

I'm an epee-ist and you're right we do get lots of bruises on our arms and legs...
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Hahahhahahaa
I'm epee, so the only off-target is really...the floor. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You know, you're the second person to inform me about epees in one day...funny that.
Anywho, shame your dad thought it was a hickey, hope it didn't hurt too much... I think my dad would congratulate me if I had a hickey though, or at least tease me to oblivion
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, oh..yeah, I see that. My bad.
And it wasn't bad.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
