Lea over at Dangerous Beauty has a great rant about the new Supergirl action figure.
So King shows me the new Supergirl action figure, based on the art of Michael Turner… [T]he dude’s tenuous grasp on anatomy has completely eroded and his art is falling down a cliff of WTF. I think Turner is another one of those artists who makes aspiring artists go “Psst! I could do that.” It’s a lot of boobs and poufylips and fiddle faddle rendering.
I still think the right sculptor, and the right quality control person could’ve gotten a better sculpt based on Turner’s work. I am smacked that the Supergirls that came out late last year were so bad they were recalled (retailers only had to send back heads for credit), and yet this is okay.
This figure looks like Anorexic Whore Supergirl.
I’ll go back to reading my Complete Peanuts collection now…

My daughter just asked, having not seen the image before, if this was the EVIL Supergirl.
