Call me crazy, but I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that Marvel and DC didn't sign off on these Mozambican print spots depicting comicdom's foremost superheroines mid-breast exam. More »

Mutant haute couture tends to begin and end with leather jackets, pouches, not-battlefield-worthy corsets, and blue-and-yellow school uniforms that leave nothing to the imagination. More »

We've seen sex-swapped incarnations of the X-Men before, but Deviant Artist Timberoo is devoted to giving almost every X-Men — no matter how obscure — the Victor Victoria routine. Let's kick off these creative offerings with He-Dazzler, who I imagine would look a lot more like Cerrone or Giorgio Moroder in real life.

For the Cubango samba school parade for Rio's 2011 Carnaval, several nice young ladies donned painted-on superheroine outfits...which is more or less how they look in the comics.

There is very little to love about the Swedish Matrix/Heroes ripoff movie Storm, but this scene almost makes everything worth it. This is near the beginning of the movie, when our hero Donny's superficial clubster life is invaded by a hot ninja babe in latex. Somehow, she's connected to a comic book he read as a kid.

Um, yeah. Focus on the latex lady. Pay no attention to the boring yet morally-reprehensible therapy plot. [Storm via IMDB] More »
