"New, Cool, Thing" Dept.:

There are some artists who's taken Jack Kirby's groundbreaking comic-book art style and made it into someting of a genre in and of itself. Herb Trimpe is one (but, as I've proven to folks in comparison, Herb could imitate anyone they told him to - *that* was his forte... usually Kirby or John Severin), lately Steve Rude Read more... )

new cool things, comic books, sweet sweet kirby love

Oh that's so great! I grew up with books on the tail end of the Kirby dynasty. I remember being so crushed when I found out he was not the leather jacket wearing super stud that I imagined him, but a little old normal guy.

Anyway, she looks great and if I had the dollars or the figure, I would wear it to a con.

I like the fact that she's slim, but also kind of slight (as these characters go, anyway).

She's a sadist and she loves the hero - y'gotta love that kind of Catwoman-esque moral ambiguity in a cosmically powered Femme Fatale.
