This is just my interpretation so here goes:
"Punk" as a suffix is inherently about anti-establishment. Therefore:
Cyberpunk -> Mega-corporations control the media and hoard resources and anyone not consuming mindlessly is a threat
Desertpunk -> Water is hoarded by either petty warlords or mega-corporations and the hero is often someone fighting or existing outside the system. Mad Max comes to mind but Tank Girl also. Basically, any setting where drinking water is treated as crude oil and all the conflict that entails.
Oceanpunk -> Not quite the opposite of Desertpunk. Instead of arid deserts, it's vast swathes of ocean with little islands (floating or stationary). An authoritarian regime controls or wishes to control the waters and its inhabitants. Land can be a resource or ancient technology from the "old world" can drive the conflict. One Piece, Waterworld, Flapjack, any setting where boats are used frequently as transportation and the setting. I wanna see more submarines in this genre.
Scavengepunk -> The oil's been used up and global war has rendered progress & production stagnant. People scavenge junk to meet their needs but this junk is very much a finite resource. The regime either hoards what they scavenge or forbid the scavenging of certain goods, fearing it could upset the power balance. People who can actually manufacture or invent new tech might be persecuted cuz being able to build your own stuff instead of scavenging just disrupts the status quo. These types of stories usually have 1 of 2 MacGuffins: the main hero restarts some dangerous old-world tech or invents something powerful. Mortal Engines is technically scavengepunk and steampunk combined.

A bit of a change from the usual Tank Girl look. Definitely under consideration for future cosplay.

rewatched tank girl, I have such a complicated relationship with this movie. I'll dump like 5 smearing complaints about how flawed it is within like 20 minutes of watching, only to insist that it's one of my favorite movies ever.
the casting is perfect, but the dialog and direction is so mid! the bits and pieces of Hewlett's art is so cool to see, but it makes me wish it was a fully animated movie! the antagonists are goofy and fit the bizarro world of tank girl quite well, but jEEEEEEZ, the overwhelming amount of creepy pervy goons and the total creep fest that is the rippers??? it's so gross and uncomfortable. and speaking of the rippers, Booga, my boy, was done pretty dirty! hes mild mannered and clever! idk if I wasn't paying attention, but he was kinda played as an oaf. he's devoted to his girlie and his crew! he's got a big heart!!! and he's super well spoken!! Lori Petty is an iconic choice, but the lack of Aussie accent just bUgS mE!!!
my hope for the totally real and totally in production tank girl sequel (as well as it being fully animated, which will never happen lol) is that we see booga get a second chance. and fuck, whyy isn't Stevie in the first tank girl???? he's such a cool, wise character!!!! please, to the empty warehouse that is the current production house for tank girl 2, include Stevie. he's got so much potential. same goes for the rest of the extended cast, as they really help in rounding out the possibilities for the story!! also please just make polycule tank girl canon, all these absolute loons are dating, it just makes more sense.

TANK GIRL (1988 - Present)
Tank Girl debuted in 1988 in "Deadline" magazine, created by Alan Martin and Jamie Hewlett. Set in a water-scarce, post-apocalyptic world, Tank Girl, aka Rebecca Buck, navigates chaos in her tank. Hewlett's gritty, punk-inspired art defined the series, vividly portraying Tank Girl's rebellious adventures. The comic's success led to collected editions and a 1995 film. Hewlett's vibrant, expressive style remains integral, shaping Tank Girl into a symbol of counterculture and feminist defiance.

a comic about a love story between two girls who only have each other, and take a chance on it.
Buy “Soliloquy Down To Three”, an anthology of blood stained sapphic comics (including this one) here.
#cw: implications of suicide#comic#lesbian#sapphic#lgbt#original art#this is the last sapphic comic i have in my tank#for this anthology i mean#lord knows ill draw comics of women being in love until the day i die#but this closes out the set i planned for soliloquy down to three#and i couldnt be prouder#this came out exactly the way i wanted it to and im very happy about it#i dearly hope at least one of you felt a pang of emotion reading that last line#it was definitely a personal goal to make at least one tearjerker out of all of these#i love these two girls#their names are painter and muse#personally i think they jump and escape without a scratch#and then they live out the rest of their lives together peacefully#but thats just me#once again thank you for your support#and of course#thank you for reading#stillindigo art
