I think she ends up looking like a sexy cosplayer the male members got to stand in for Wonder Woman. Also, the only member not included is the black dude. Huh.
Superman's all like, "HELLO CHICAGO! ARE YOU READY TO ROCK!?"

Chiropractors for women must make MILLIONS servicing comic book females.
What the hell is with comic artists and not knowing how to make a proper waist? It's either too wider or too narrow. TAKE A DAMN ANATOMY CLASS!
See, what bothers me isn't just the lack of anatomy. It's the artists that know anatomy...but then forget that clothes on someone, even if they're muscular, doesn't show every single muscle, even in spandex (just look at pro-wrestlers). It's like they draw them naked.
Or how they over-extenuate veins in some heroes. Unless they are mutant, they should not look so damn vascular. The nineties was full of vascular weirdos.
Poor Spider-man, he has a broken leg, and the same back problem as Captain Marvel.Bellechere shared this one:
Here's the thing, though, I never expect comics to look realistic. In fact some of the concession of sequential art is that in order to convey motion, a bit of stylization is needed. For example I have no problem with the Ms. Marvel (i guess that's her new constume... ugh) and Spider-Man panels. They're stylized in a way that conveyes motion and the Ms. Marvel is not really as cheesecake fanservice-ish as women are generally portrayed.
The problem comes when these things are taken to extremes such as the Catwoman picture.

I find it ironic how large the artist drew Black Widow's breasts in that picture.
I think they are trying to hi-light her bracer. In the comics it shoots stuff...though I odn't remember it doing that in the movie.[DOUBLEPOST=1347146695][/DOUBLEPOST]
This just came across my tumblr dash. Ugh.
There ARE good comics out there that do women justice.

Plus it looks like she's about to floss with her rope for some reason.
Oh, I'm sure! I just don't have the inclination to wade through the misogynistic crap to find themThere ARE good comics out there that do women justice.
I have the same issues with a lot of anime, which my boyfriend is really into. I have nothing against the people who do enjoy those things, but when I personally try to read/watch them (and this goes for a great many superhero movies as well), it usually leads to long, overblown third-wave feminist rants at the people in my immediate vicinity. Nobody wants to listen to that shit.
Re:anime, maybe you two could give Noitamina shows a shot? They tend to be a lot better about that stuff compared to most anime. You could share your boyfriend's interests without wanting to claw your eyes out. Although, it's not a given; Hataraki Man was pretty good, Black Rock Shooter... not so much.
Noitinama, I freakin love that company! Tatami Galaxy is probably one of the greatest short animated series I've seen from Japan in years.
The entire ecchi subgenre in Japanese animation gets very grating at times. Especially since much of the time said fan-service is completely unnecessary.

We tried watching Eden of the East, and I couldn't get into it. I'll have to ask him if there are any other Noitamina shows he's interested in 
There's been a few anime shows I've liked -- Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood probably being my favorite -- but there's been a lot more I've given up on after a few episodes. I'm optimistic about Death Note, though, which is apparently what we're watching next.

It's not an action show, but I think Moyashimon is pretty fun... just puttin' it out there.
Though apparently the 2nd season is total butt.
I watched the most mysogenistic/cheesecake anime this week. High School of the Dead (or damned, I can't remember which). It was just plain terrible. Not only is it yet another zombie story, but holy crap there were so many cheap breast butt and prominent camel toe shots. I thought I was watching Hentai.
Damn straight! Apparently the artist for that actually did do straight up porn before this. Not...not a surprise at all. Also the 26 year old nurse looks the same damn age as the high school students which I find stupid as all hell.
I felt the same way. I tried to watch it, and I made it about 1 minute in. Then some girl trips while running up stairs, and the view zooms focuses on a cheap panty-shot. I had the same reaction - what is this, hentai? - and decided to turn it off. Not worth my time.
