Description
Commissioned Christmas Gift, 2011; Copic marker, ink, white paint pen.Warning: This is a joke, this is only a joke. Please don't label me a misogynist because of this! I would hope my body of work speaks for itself, but it's so easy to do one piece and get labelled these days, I just never want to be "THAT guy."
Anyway, this was commissioned by one friend for another, and since we know the guy who was receiving it and have been doing work for him for years, I've got a pretty good idea of his taste. Wanted to do something for him that would make him laugh, and since the request was for him with Power Girl, I began to rack my brain for boob-puns. Ope--see there? One slipped out on accident. Guess I'm busted. HA!

Eh, freedom of speech says I, you don't like it, fine, but please keep it to yourself.
Persoanlly I like her sidekick Terra more, but there is tons of fun to be had with Power Girl, mainly due to her personality.

I also love Atlee, but NOTHING compares to them together. Power Girl and Huntress? BAH! HUMBUG! Gimme Peege and Terra any day.

the problem with PG is that it's TOO easy to make this joke.

Now see, I don't think that's a problem inherent with her, but with some of the guys who draw her. I think it's GOOD that she's a large-chested, full-figured woman. Such women do exist in the world, and comics should reflect that. I think it's BAD when she's drawn as a vapid sex-doll, and I think it's WORSE, even indefensible, that EVERY woman is drawn with her proportions.
The problem isn't with PG at all. She's fine as she is. Just ask Amanda Conner & Jimmy Palmiotti. Her measurements didn't stop them from doing one of the only deeply entertaining DC books in the last seven or eight years.

Which book was that? I'd like to take a look through it and see what you mean.

It's the Power Girl series by Palmiotti, Gray, and Conner.
Volume 1: [link]
Volume 2: [link]
Judd Winick took over as writer after that, and it was still pretty good but not AS good.
You can also check out the Palmiotti/Gray/Conner Terra mini for a good time (and some more Power Girl action): [link]

Totally agreed--I like drawing full-figured, curvy women as much as the next hot-blooded male, but I know that not every character I draw should be so.
