The Bird and The Bat

Just call me Jill Wayne. Or Jill Pantozzi because that's my real name. Whichever. You can also call me The Nerdy Bird. Catch me at TheNerdyBird.com or @TheNerdyBird on Twitter.

As Billie Jean said, FAIR IS FAIR.

So, the reason I was looking up aforementioned photos earlier was to reference this.
I had a bit of a rant on twitter today about how tired I am of seeing “action girls” and superheroines always wearing extremely revealing clothes that make NO SENSE for their job.
 

I haven’t read a whole lot of superhero comics, mainly for this reason.  They are so full of shameless fanservice and fap material and the way female characters are CONSISTENTLY portrayed is really annoying.
Now, I have nothing against women flaunting their sexuality, or having big boobs, or wearing revealing costumes.  What I do have a problem with is when EVERY FEMALE CHARACTER is dressed like some kind of fetish model, while the guys are pretty much always all covered, with costumes that emphasize their strength/character rather than their glorious bubble butts.
I guess what I’m saying is, if you’re okay with giving all your female characters skimpy bathing suits and boob-windows for crime-fighting suits, why not give us some guys in similar outfits?  Fair is fair.
Also, this guy’s name is Moon Man, and he’s up for grabs.  I’m giving him to you for free, Marvel and DC! Go wild.

My beautiful friend @HeyKannaya cosplaying Ame-Comi Mera from SDCC. She LOVES Aquaman.

Just got these awesome photos from Ashley Hay, here’s what she had to say (HA, a  rhyme):

Hey there!

I wanted to send these photos your way to possibly post on your blog. The costume is Mera from Aquaman based off the Ame-Comi figure that came out in May. I have attached some photos of the costume as well as the photo of the figure. Debuted at SDCC 2011.

Credits are as followed:
