In MY comics? No way! Isn't that pretty much the default? Shirts in nature sort of don't hug boobs like they do in comics, nor buttcheeks either. Awesomely, Empowered is one of the best at looking like she's wearing fabric, if super-thin. Also got that going on with the Gotham Sirens cover, except its the entire structure of Harley's ankle through her nominal "boot."

My first thought: "Sims *must* have reviewed this one." And lookee there! As I’m clicking through this, I stop at the Street Fighter cover. My first thought: “Sims *must* have reviewed this one.”

Just sayin', is all. For the record, the Mignola “Solomon Kane” cover beats the pants off the one they actually picked for the list, as I’m sure you recognize. Just sayin’, is all.

It also helps that jokes about Nico 'not so much a fashion victim as a fashion genocide' Minoru are always to be encouraged - Marvel will go to bat to decry marijuana usage, but heartily endorses teenage emos making their own clothes? What the hell, Marvel? I didn’t see that Models Inc cover before, but that’s pretty well done.

I think maybe if the Wolverine covers were on books about Wolverine it would've been legit. Unless in that issue of spiderman wolverine plays poker and I missed it which is very possible. But like I told you, good catch on the Batgirl cover, I hadn't seen it until this list and couldn't agree more with you.

I wouldn't want every cover to be in that style but it works perfectly for Iron Man. I don't even like the character and they've caught my interest. Those Iron Man covers are gorgeous.
