Women of Marvel, featuring TITS

[stubbleupdate]

I commented on NSD earlier about Marvel's Year of Women. Part of that includes the two part Women of Marvel series, collecting stories previously published on Marvel.com

The cover's got its stars in burlesque gear and inside... it's got tits.




Uhhh... a pinup? By Greg Land? Why not just pay the strippers to wear the costumes themselves?

And then Black Cat's tits fight the tits of Satan's Daughter.




I'll probably give this one a miss.

Though I will say that the Enchantress does do rather well out of these Marvel women stories. I've not seen her in continuity much, but this year, she's been dotted around in lots of different places.

I thought pneumatic was the work for machinery driven by air? What does it mean used as an adjective on people?

There's a word for that? I'm not sure what to do with this fact.

Purchase a vintage pin-up girl poster, proceed to an open, public place with lots of people, tack it up on a wall, cough loudly to gain attention, point to it, and say 'PNEUMATIC!' in a clear, carrying voice. Then walk away.
Or, y'know... maybe something else. But that's what I'd do.

Huh. Thanks, I didn't know that. You learn something new every day, I guess.

A fact which underlies my friend's description of pr0n as "an industrial film with fur".

Could be wrong, but Brave New World reference mayhaps?

Spot on, that is indeed where I first heard the term, though I've heard it used to describe the... inflated nature of certain ladies... umm.... chest-al areas a few times since then,

That's where I first read it too, come to think of it. But I've never heard it used in the US.
