Marvel features spider woman's ass on cover of issue #1

First of all, even the dumbest, horniest teenage boy on the planet knows there's no fabric on this earth that could possibly cling to Jessica Drew's individual buttocks like that. She looks like she's wearing body-paint, and that's a big no-no for an industry still trying to remember that women exist and may perhaps read comics and also don't want to feel completely gross when they do so. As for the position she's in... christ. It's like you want The Hawkeye Initiative to get so furious they have brain aneurysms and die.
Of course, sexy comic art has its place, and Manara is quite good at it. But perhaps asking an erotic artist to draw one of your most popular superheroines for a mass-market cover wasn't quite a good idea. Also a bad idea: Receiving this cover and pretending like you didn't notice Spider-Woman sticking her bare red ass three feet into the air. Here's a simple rule: If it's inappropriate for a male character, it should also be inappropriate for a female character.

It's a crouch, LILA, but even so...why can't you be proud of your body, LILA?
Unless....there's absolutely nothing to be proud of...
I'd feel sorry for you if you weren't an unhinged DUmmie...

193. It is pretty much the same pose and there are thousands like it in spiderman comics.
The spiderman crawl pose drawings are common in spiderman comics.
The other thing some folks who object to this picture seem to fail to see is that she is crawling from a higher position to a lower one.
Try doing that without having the back of you at a higher elevation than the rest of you.
Outside of how her butt is drawn, which is a little odd, there is nothing significantly different from the OP picture with the picture in comment 31.
1. I think the Spidey pic someone posted was deleted. Didn't see it.
2. The only reason this is even a topic on DU is because Liberals in general sexualize everything, (including children, the sick ****s) and that's compounded with femanists.
3. It looks like Spider-woman is crouching to either shoot her web for transportation purposes, or she's crouching to jump somewhere for the same purpose, or to attack.
4. She still does have a nice ass. Well done to the artist.
5. Whoever "Mr. Crumb" is, he sounds like a REALLY sick puppy, and his comics based on just the covers I've seen are from a diseased mind.
6. I have indeed heard of "head shops."
