Goddamnit, Lisa... now I have to look for Zod avatars.

[Lisa]

Not my fault, Matchy-Match!

Just get out your "KNEEL" poster avatar.

That was a good one.

Hey, wait a second, that Superman has my chin.

Oh, FUCK THAT! and FUCK THEM!

Pretty much my feelings, and why I barely read anything from Marvel or DC anymore, and haven't for quite a few years now.

Superman's like Wonder Woman - they're bright, colorful, paragon-esque characters. They're supposed to be reflective of everything that's GOOD about being a superhero, and of humanity in particular. The moody shit is Batman's turf.

Done!

Ed... I don't see any balls on Kal-El's chin.

Here's a bit of history for ya - a correspondence from Wonder Woman's creator where he talks to a colleague re: WW's outfit.

Very cool! Yes, that was close to what her very first look was like in the 40s. She had the skirt first, but the bodice was covered - she'd have never shown that much skin during WWII. I couldn't make out a lot of that handwriting, but I saw one comment that the shoes make her look like a stenographer, and I agree. Looks like they were going for some kind of shoe/sandal/boot combo before they arrived at the boots she's had for decades.
