4. He's "edgy." Someone who can get away with sexually violating people repeatedly and yet remain funny and somehow sympathetic is somewhat out of the mainstream. Try explaining a Tobor cartoon to someone you've just met and watch them back away from you veerrry sloooowly. And you're unlikely to see a "Tobor The Cornholing Robot" series on HBO any time soon.

Standing up in front of a classroom full of lecturers from London that have never met you before and trying to explain the history behind the animated rape scene you're about to show them really makes you wonder why it is that Tobor is popular at all. The fact that you've lost sleep trying to get the shadow effects on his telescoping phallus really hits you as being bizarre as you tip-toe around the real premise by using phrases like "his own unique brand of justice" just to see them stare back at you blankly.
