Seeing past me jokingly call DC βdiscrimination comicsβ and complaining about Tom King not knowing how bad it was going to get
MAGA takeover of DC the millisecond they start making good movies and TV for the first time in my life since the original Justice League animated show

Are you really a superhero artist if you donβt have a formative memory of seeing Mary Jane Watson?
This J Scott Campbell one was in an old kids book for Spider-Man and Iβve loved the character since

If I had a nickel for every beloved childhood franchise that started out with 2000s sci-fi industrial grunge aesthetics and transitioned into Jack Kirby vibrant cosmology aesthetics as the lore expanded Iβd have two nickels, which isnβt a lot but itβs weird that it happened twice

I used Jack Kirby for a reason. Barda was very clearly drawn by her creator as a large, muscular woman. She was not lean

Itβs why I brought up Bane. He and Barda are characters that were originally and I prefer being BIG, but not venturing into outright sci-fi scale that a lot of fans weirdly act like is the only way to βauthenticallyβ capture the character
Big Barda is next to Bane and She-Hulk on the worst offenders of progressive bodybuilder-fication by the comic book industry.
Progressive and cartoonish bloating of their physiques to such a degree that people forget that the original design was never really like that
