All I can think of there is that this picture was 'taken' at one serendipitous moment in the explosion-jump-away-from. A split second later whip-girl realises she's phasing Shadowcat-style through bow-girl, and they land in a terrible heap.

Black Widow's mystery hand.



Thor's new threads:



I actually think this one's just legitimately pretty good:



Mystery hand? I'm more concerned that she's stolen Mr. Fantastic's leg.

Thor has stolen clothes from He-Man, and I'm imagining that surprised dialogue is immediately followed by "What happened to your clothes?"

And the third one is a pretty nice team-pose, but it amuses me that Vision and Black Widow appear to be firing their eye beams/wrist guns into the air like whoopin' cowboys.

Man, why is it always wrestlers or porn? Is it the spandex? They need someone wearing form-fitting stuff or nothing at all?

Or is it, perhaps, deeper than that.

Seduction of the innocent is no joke. Every comic ever made contained a traced pornographic image somewhere in its pages. The talented artists hide it away in crowd-scenes, or parts of the background... The hacks just make it a main character. But the day a comic is made which breaks this law, an unspeakable evil will be released.

I think Darkseid filled the same massively-powerful threat (what's DC's equivalent of Marvel's Cosmic threats?) as Lex or the like did for mortal ones. You'll get a few awkward moments, but he's never presented as comical, or taken out by everyone in coloured tights.

Plus, he's got his signature move: chilling on your couch, and waiting for you to get home.

Though it does kinda look like if Bane punched, he'd only barely reach past his own chest. Much more, and he'd have to kool-aid through any door he came across, because he couldn't reach the handle.

What the gently caress is even going on here aside from it being a tracing/photo manip of some random porn idk I can't even parse it

In my mind, these two are related. Spidey is a creep, and takes the cover photos for the pinup covers.

I like that she's wearing a skirt that, if she were to stand up straight, would cover literally nothing. It's basically a waist ruffle at this point.

While I wouldn't put it past some writers, unless that cowl is 3D-Printed around Bruce's head and has zero mobility he should still be KOed. And even then, he should be pushed sideways a bit and torn up by splinters around the bare jaw.

Unless it's Supes in disguise again, or something?

I'm sure it's been said before, in this thread, that while Liefeld was one of, if not the most, famous pouches-and-ammobelts artists, comic books wanted that and paid him and others to keep doing it. They had a cash cow they were going to keep milking. Experiment with new styles? But this one it what's selling!

One Punch Man's first season made up for it by having artists put their own takes on shots. The Biceps King scene, for example, looks nothing like the manga, but also looks amazing, with BK himself being much more flexible and sketch-like as he loses his temper symbolising... something or other, I'm no expert. But it looks great.

Of all the issues to have with it... my main one has to be...

Why is Reed massaging his knuckles after punching a guy? It should be like he's always wearing boxing gloves, Fantastic Fist deforms to the face and transfers a whammy of kinetic force over an area, perfect for shaking the brain and causing concussions without cracking a bone.
