So, a small number of preview solicits have come out from DC, and I noticed some interesting elements in the JLA #14 cover.

Churchill was clearly dying to draw this.

“Holding Out for a Hero”

Filed under: Criticism and Commentary — Tags: , — toddperson @ 7:45 pm

Youtube link to a video of drag queen Tandi Iman Dupree performing Betty Taylor’s “Holding Out for a Hero” – recently(ish) popularized by SHREK 2 – dressed as Wonder Woman and joined by a Superman dancer.

I’m kind of in love with this video and could ramble about the interesting things it says (without even trying!) about conventional ideas of sexuality, race, and identity for hours, but instead I think I’ll just link you to it, because it’s fantastic and says it all without any input from me.

Also, it’s sexy beyond belief.
