What seems to me most outrageous is not the strip (which is obviously tasteless), but the response toward people who objected.

But you're absolutely right. We need a new word to describe open hostility toward victims of rape.

starting at the dickwolves comic and jumping to open hostility towards victims of rape is a giant leap
The hostility towards victims of rape didn't stem from the comic, it came from the response to the response to the comic.

That is to say rape victims said some not nice things about the comic and so they made a tee shirt about it, and started carrying on. Kind of a Streisand effect.
