sexy superheroines

I've done so many of these,I felt that,rather than lumping them in with my other superhero pics,they should get their own post...so...what does happen when the costumes...for whatever reason...come off?


"not yet oracle"...when I first posted this on Deviantart,somebody commented that
I should increase Barbara's humiliation by making her more exposed...as in,strip her.
While I didn't want to re-do this piece,I did like the idea...



...so I did this,"not yet oracle 2",keeping the retro-style but switching from
the 1960's to the 70's,as well as still illustrating the somewhat unsettling
possible consequences of pursuing the life of a crime-fighter.

Namely,some day one of your arch-enemies may decide that they want
the whole world to see what your ass looks like.



"rednow woman"...inspired by Robot Chicken's reverse-Wonder-Woman vignette.


"comics code be damned"...uhh...actually,
this is pretty self-explanatory.


"eve,destruction"...born out of an afternoon of flipping through two
very different comics...Kamandi,The Last Boy On Earth,and Barbarella
...with a little I Am Legend thrown in.


"beware the mind of Dr.Psycho"...for those of us who don't have
wardrobe-destroying power rings.


"cobra of the month"...well,how did you think all those
supervillian organizations got guys to be their soldiers?


"wedgied wonder"


I guess I should've mentioned that this collection is also of women
associated with superheroes.
This piece--"the harpy is born"--is a re-interpretation of a panel from
The Incredible Hulk,Vol.1,#168,the October '73 issue,"The Hate Of The Harpy".



This is also from that issue,and it inspired this...


I call this one "prelude to the harpy's birth".
Below are the two panels. 





"gothamites are oblivious"
Inspired by a Bruce Timm-illustrated Batgirl story where,while shopping in a
department store during the holidays,Barbara Gordon sees the villainous Clayface 
trying to rob the place,so she ducks into the nearest dressing room and changes
to Batgirl.
Maybe I should be more specific...this was actually inspired by another work by Timm,
an alternate version where Barbara,after being unable to find a place to change,decides
to just strip down and don her costume right smack-dab in the middle of a fleeing crowd,
presumably to preoccupied with their own self-preservation to notice the naked
redhead in their midst.The art I just described is in black and white and only has
implied nudity.
Needless to say,I was inspired.

As I was posting my latest Bruce Timm-inspired piece,about eight pictures 
down,it occurred to me that I could post the artwork that inspired the above 
work...so here it is!



This piece,belles of freedom,was created specifically for a contest on
DeviantArt...depicted here are three characters from Marvel Comics,
from left to right,Sharon Carter,Jennifer Walters a.k.a. She-Hulk and 
Maria Hill of SHIELD.


"the death of doctor light"...forget pulling on Superman's cape,here's 
something more dangerous to attempt.
Also featured here is a certain superhero's wife whom he didn't get to 
assault,at least not in this version.


"before she spun around"
...proving that some costume-changing methods
don't work for everybody.


"gonna reach out and grab ya"
Once more,I'm drawing from artist Bruce Timm 
for visual inspiration.

Kinda makes you wonder why supervillians
don't do this more often,doesn't it?


"bishop to bodystocking"
A radical reinterpretation of the first issue of 
Justice League Of America (October 1960).

I suppose one could point out how strange it is that Despero chose 
to do this on a day when there weren't any men at JLA headquarters.


"tiara not required"


"okay,maybe they're not!"

A sort-of follow-up/alternate to my gothamites are 
oblivious piece up there.



"okay,maybe they aren't!"

Yet still another alternate version.


"okay,maybe they ain't!"

...and yet still another,albeit one with a grammatically 
incorrect title.




"they blinded her with science"

Based on one of the plotlines in DC's 2006 miniseries 52...in particular,
Will Magnus,creator of the Metal Men,finds himself on a island where a 
group of scientist supervillains,mostly obscure ones from the Silver Age,
but including Dr. Sivana and T.O. Morrow have been assembled to create 
a quartet of deadly superandroids.When the Justice Society Of America storms 
the island,one of the scientists reveals his plan to use his supposedly
infallible hypnosis-inducing goggles on JSA member Power Girl.Not 
surprisingly,they don't work.

....but what if they had?


"she picked the wrong roof"



"she likes kryptonians"


"bab's underwear dissolves"

Created from a still from the home-video animated version of 
Batman:The Killing Joke.


No,I didn't do the above...it's actually by illustrator 
Kerry Callen...but it did inspire me to create this...

...which I call "keeping abreast of trouble".


"honor guard locker room"

From the Astro City books,four members of the premiere superhero 
group Honor Guard...from left to right Winged Victory,Quarrel,Cleopatra 
and the Barbie-dollesque android Beautie...all literally 
caught with their pants down.


"pretty little mary"

From DC's Multiversity miniseries,which featured a collection of 
alternate-universe Dr. Sivanas banding together; one of which was 
a Hannibal-Lecter-type,who seemed to have an unhealthy obsession 
with superheroine Mary Marvel.


"personal space,private parts"

Yet another venture into Bruce Timm territory,as is
the piece below.


"beware my f-cking POWER!!!"

What many of us wanted to see Guy Gardner
do with his power ring.


"pushed way too far"

A radical re-interpretation of the confrontation between the two Dr. Lights...
the villainous and deceased Arthur Light,brought back to existence by the 
Blackest Night,and the superheroine Kimiyo Hoshi.
This occurred during DC Comics' Blackest Night miniseries,as depicted in 
Justice League Of America,Vol. 2, #40 (Feb. 2010) "Reunion,Part Two".

Yes,she did blast off the last of her clothes in the story.
