Cut because the cover of a comic designed either for nine-year-olds or thirteen-year-olds, Marvel can't seem to make up its mind, is Not Safe For Work.

I think the stance is cocky enough without the uptilted head, and that angle is giving me more of an arrogant vibe. Which also works!

Sometimes I like him. Sometimes I don't. I'm very fond of his Diana, and I loved the Commander Steel cover.

Yeah, the Peej cover made me happy. So very happy. YAY, PEEJ.

That H4H cover still pisses me off, especially compared to the cover of issue 10, which I have to tell you is pretty damn cool. Three issues later and it goes from kickass to THAT, and I tell you, not fair, Marvel. :/

YAY PEEJ INDEED. Although next time we see a multiverse Peej I want it to be yours.

Only blonde.

The H4H cover pisses off anyone with sense. So, of course, there's people on scans_daily saying 'Huh? Misogyny what?'

And then I go stabby.

Heroes for Hire #13: The fuck? Since when is "Heroes for Hire" manga, let alone hentai? I mean, there's a place and time of that sort of thing but this is most definitely not it.

The Power Girl rocks. The uptilted head means she's looking down ON YOU :D

Srsly. I mean, dude, Marvel, if I could run a google image search on hentai and get almost identical images you are *doing something wrong*.

I don't *dislike* the uptilted head, but it's the thing I like least about the picture.

I do not EVEN KNOW, but I think they need a crash course in appropriate for mainstream comic vs. appropriate for a porno. Gah.
