To be fair, an artist many times is given the script -- sans significant "camera angles" -- and is told, simply, "draw something cool."
And so they do.
That said, it is writer Dwayne McDuffie himself -- who I always believe is aware of these cringe-worthy bits of comicbookdom and refers to/apologizes for them in his books, who has the last word:
It's ok, Dwayne, we know it wasn't your idea; you just got the art and had to start scripting it.
That's what happens when you let Dr. Light design your prison area.

What's with the Power Girl-size honkers on Wonder Woman? Can nobody draw a normal-chested woman?
ReplyDeleteWhat is up with Wonder Woman's breasts? If you want to give WW large breasts, fine, but at least take a couple anatomy classes. She looks like a pornstar with regrettable implants.
ReplyDeleteTHOSE ARE BREASTS? i thought it was part of the "hold 'em in lordosis" brand shackles.
ReplyDeletelordosis = kewl, learned a new word.
ReplyDeleteNotice the bulging veins on Superman's left hand? His heart must be really a-pumping.
