It’s scary stuff. Comics have finally stooped to exploitation of sexuality to sell books. A formerly kid friendly medium has now joined the ranks of porn to sell comics. Have they no shame? Do they not consider the other dangers of such imagery?
Why, DC? You have such a strong track record of not exploiting your characters as sexual objects, why start with Citizen Steel? Thankfully, we still have Marvel, who understand that comics need a sense of moral decency. For instance, I hear that Ultron has returned. You just can’t go wrong with Ultron.
