Picture from the window of Jim Hanley's Universe taken this Saturday
for those "fire and ice" more adventuresome members of the audience (because domestic violence can be *hot* -- and men are always more stronger than women so they can never *really* be physically abused, so cute with women hitting them with their itty bitty little balled fists...)
The Ms. Marvel Bingo Sheet...and something for the ladies!
The real reason there are so many female Green Lantern fans
Penance: a very sensitive young man (at least his extremities are)
some days i hate comics.
ReplyDeleteI think 'Supergirl as stripper' is a little harsh - to be fair, I don't think anyone had an issue with similar Dean Cain promos that he did ten years ago.
ReplyDeleteBut Dean Cain wore pants.
ReplyDeleteWell fine, if you're going to be reasonable about it..
ReplyDelete"Balled-up fists"?
ReplyDeleteThat was an open-hand slap!
It's like I'm looking at an American Apparel ad for super babydoll shirts.
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteI dunno, I can usually just turn off my analytical side and let my inner ape enjoy cheesecake shots but those Supergirl pictures just...burn.
Oh, Penance.
ReplyDeleteMarvel, this is what happens when you hire Warren Ellis: you get a character that looks like Grant Morrison. Because Warren is gay for grant Morrison.
This really does go a long way towards proving my contention that comics have not "grown up" to become an "adult" medium; rather, they have entered a painfully awkward adolescence, in which they don't know how to act around girls, think way too much about sex, and avoid anything they think is 'babyish'. (Oh, and think they're much more grown up than they really are.)
ReplyDeleteHeh heh. Well, that IS a very nice picture of Kyle. ALL Green Lanterns are sexy as hell.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that those Supergirl shots are from Stuff magazine, not promotional shots. That would make it slightly better if I didn't think the actual promo shots were worse.
ReplyDeleteApparently Maxim has become required reading at the DC offices. Because everything here just screams that mentality (well, besides the Kyle Rainer shot, which is way more Men's Health.
ReplyDeleteAdriana Melo did draw quite the dreamy Kyle.
