Your Questions About Pinup Artwork
Oct 9th, 2011 by Aldouspi

Maria asks…

Which do you think is the most intense Batman artwork?

Cover, pinup, sketch, drawing, artwork whatever. 😉 Give me a lot

Pin-up answers:

I’ve always been a fan of Frank Miller’s art in The Dark Knight Returns. Frank Quitley’s art on the new Batman and Robin series is phenomenal as well. However, I would have to say the most intense Batman art has got to be Dave McKean’s art in Grant Morrison’s Arkham Asylum. It’s just super twisted and a perfect match for the story.

Mandy asks…

The lass with an Hourglass Figure and the Clothing to make her Shine!?

I have an hourglass body, shoulders are proportionate to my hips, and my waist curves inwards. I am not skinny. I have ‘girly meat’ – yet my actual frame is very small/tiny. I’m average height.
For many years, I hated my body because it wasn’t fashionable like the straight up and down bodies of the catwalk models. I possibly suffered from a warped body image and I thought that my body shape was grotesque. However, I have overcome such issues, and now I love my hourglass frame because it makes me feel feminine and girly and sexy.

Anyway, my question stems from my theory that slim fitting jeans and a nice (not baggy) top are better choices for an hourglass body … as opposed to say, wafty dresses that you might see on nicole richie. I think this because, in the pictures of ‘pinup girl’ artworks, the characters always wear jeans and slim fit clothing that accentuates the body shape … and that sort of accentuation cannot be achieved in wafty ‘fashionable’/trendy items.

Who agrees?

Pin-up answers:

First, I am glad you have gotten over the body image indoctrination that corporations place on women. The most beautiful woman (and men, too) are those who strive to be healthy and who strive to be intelligent and have good character.

Secondly, your observation that clothes are used to accentuate the artists or photogaphers pin-ups is spot on.

With the right clothes an “hourglass” or a “beanpole” can be a pin-up… But I will let the artists decide what clothes work…

William asks…

myspace backgrounds?

Does anyone have any nice backgrounds or artwork that work for a myspace page? Right now I have a portrait of a pinup by Alberto Vargas. I like A LOT of different types of things so anything will be helpful.

Thanks!

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Reviews
Jan 1st, 2011 by Aldouspi

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns

  • ISBN13: 9781563893421
  • Condition: New

If any comic has a claim to have truly reinvigorated the genre, then The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller–known also for his excellent Sin City series and his superb rendering of the blind superhero Daredevil–is probably the top contender. Batman represented all that was wrong in comics and Miller set himself a tough task taking on the camp crusader and turning this laughable, innocuous children’s cartoon character into a hero for our times. The great Alan Moore (V for Vendetta, Swamp Thing, the arguably peerless Watchmen, see below) argued that only someone of Miller’s stature could have done this.

List Price: $ 14.99

Price: $ 8.79

Customer Comment: I loved it. One of the best graphic novels I have ever read. I leave the critiquing to an actual critic. Just know this is a great work by Frank Miller.

Customer Comment: One of the best Batman comics ever written, this and Batman: Year One by Frank Miller are both amazing. If you like Batman at all, this is a great book to start with or read at any point. It’s dark, yet exciting and the characters, peripherals, and villains are so well done.

V for Vendetta

  • ISBN13: 9781401208417
  • Condition: New
  • Notes: BRAND NEW FROM PUBLISHER! BUY WITH CONFIDENCE, Over one million books sold! 98% Positive feedback. Compare our books, prices and service to the competition. 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed

A new trade paperback edition of the graphic novel that inspired the hit movie!

A powerful story about loss of freedom and individuality, V FOR VENDETTA takes place in a totalitarian England following a devastating war that changed the face of the planet.

In a world without political freedom, personal freedom and precious little faith in anything comes a mysterious man in a white porcelain mask who fights political oppressors through terrorism and seemingly absurd acts. It’s a gripping tale of the blurred lines between ideological good and evil.

List Price: $ 19.99

Price: $ 11.99

Customer Comment: Based on plot and artistry, “V for Vendetta” deserves five stars. Alan Moore’s alternate history throws the reader into a chilling fascist England where the champion of liberty is the poetic, deranged vigilante, V.

Customer Comment: For long, I have heard about how good this graphic novel is….and after finally reading it, I have to agree that this is a terrific masterpiece.
