Since when was comic art supposed to be realistic? Correct me if
I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the human form as presented in
cartoon is meant to be a caricature. Does the word "comic"
mean anything here? Let's be honest. Would you rather open up your
comics to a bunch of stocky, obese heroes in baggy clothing, or to
something with some sort of aesthetic appeal to it?
Folks, this 7th-grade quality illustration passing as a comic book
cover isn't "objectifying" women like the livejournal article says
it does. Granted, its really quite crappy looking, but it isn't the
ruin of civilization!
And even if it was... you don't see men going up in arms about how
metrosexuality is objectifying them!
