Infinite Crisis Artwork

Thank heavens I am off tomorrow. I was sick on Wednesday and worked from home today, so sleeping in tomorrow is going to be great ;)

I did get the second issue of Infinite Crisis. I'm not giving away any spoilers, but I have to make some comment on the artwork. Normally, I love Phil Jimenez's work, but I'm having trouble with how he's drawing Power Girl. She looks like a blonde transvetite or drag queen with her broad manly shoulders, wide sagging boobs, and muscular legs. Don't get me wrong, she's supposed to be physically powerful, but she's also supposed to look like a woman with general female proportions.

Other than that, I'm loving it.

I didn't even notice the Power Girl thing too much, probably because she's one of my least favorite characters and I don't look too closely at her. I did notice that her breasts were much more "restrained" than the usual good-girl art treatment we are subjected to with large watermelon-sized ones, I just chalked it up to Phil trying to de-objectify her a little.

I have loved every panel of it so far in general.

I was so happy to see Booster return with Skeets and I loved the whole "corrupted earth" theory for all the darkness we've seen lately. The return of Booster does make me wonder if it's the same Booster or a "new" Booster, since I didn't get the impression he was from the "current" Legion future like the original Booster.

Ah, not sure which Booster we're seeing there, but I look forward to seeing this storyline develop.
