Riverside Extras is a [[FilmNoir neo-noir]] webcomic by Miranda "Miri" Chamberlain. Right before Prohibition, the city of Riverside, Washington is controlled by two opposing gangs: the male-run Ink, led by Simon Emmett and Jefferson Smith, and the female-run Roses, led by Madeline "Ma" Oceana and the Sisters. At the center of every conflict is the mysterious Ophelia Banksly. Who is she? Where did she come from? What does she want?

* RaceFetish: Discussed by members of the Ink: "If you like your coffee black, you can't do better than Banksly."

to:

* RaceFetish: Discussed by members of the Ink: "If you like your coffee black, you can't do better than Banksly."" They assume that this is the only or primary reason Simon would date Ophelia. While Simon isn't immune to background racist conditioning, he's one of the least racist white characters in the comic, and is clearly shown to have deeper feelings for Ophelia. Though admittedly the relationship is still fucked up for other reasons.
