So for the last couple of years, Supergirl has looked, frankly, like an anorexic stripper. It was embarrassing.

Soon, though, she will look like this!

A healthy teenage girl. Who'd have thought? You can see more here.

I swear, if these are anything short of outright suck writing wise, I'm buying every issue for my niece.

Here's a moment that you just hope doesn't make it into a comic. Not exactly a great pose for the teen girl of steel.

Even her face looks fat, and then she has this impossibly flat stomach with the rest of her body. Plus, she looks ugly in some of the drawings.

and he draws an ugly ear. Like a boxers :)

But seriously, those are some fat, frumpy legs.

That's ok.

I take steroids because of Superman and the other impossibly muscled men.

Still don't have the physique but I'm getting there.

My balls have shrunk to nothingness though ;)

Kudos to whoever made this decision. Nice to see a kid who looks like, well, a kid.

I've generally found it vaguely disturbing when teenage girls in comics are drawn like barely-dressed little vixens. If you're a grown man and you know you're drawing a 15-year-old girl, maybe think about toning down the T&A, you know?

Hmmm.
Thats actually piqued my interest!
A welcome change from that blasted Turner clone style.
I may have to check this out when it comes out. I'd also like to see this artist's take on other characters as well.

Renato Guedes recently did most of the art on the Omac mini series after Infinite Crisis and he also did alternate issues with Pete Woods on The Action Comics/Superman re-into "Up Up and Away" Pretty good stuff.
