Given how gravity works, that is not a very flattering picture of Logan. And he manscapes down there?


This is slightly better, but does rather suggest a completely rectangular ass.


Given his traditional costume, it’s amazing how few beefcake shots there are of Namor.


And Top Cow wins this month’s award for “Most Shameless Attempt At Customer Confusion To Boost Sales.”


Only in the comics industry is this kind of juxtaposition considered appropriate for a general audience publication.


Amazingly enough, the “Barbra St-R-eisand Barbie” is not the gayest thing in Previews this month. Heck, it’s not even the gayest Barbie of the year.



These two statues share the title of “gayest thing in Previews” this month. There’s just no way to choose between them.


sigh…straight men…

    I guess someone at Mattel was just dying to show the world what Cock Ring Ken would look like when he hit middle age.

    A minotaur in ‘Braveheart’ would have made the whole thing more interesting, and only slightly more inaccurate.

    Hey, as a straight man I assure you that the thing disgusts me too, and not just on the obvious. The whole Japanese male fetish with “bandaged girls” just utterly…bleah.

    Let’s pretend that it’s really cold where Wolverine is in the first picture, or he go kicked somewhere obvious by Nightcrawler.

  5. Thom says:

    Mark, a minotaur in Braveheart would have made it *more* accurate.

  6. Prankster says:

    Hey, you can pin pretty much everything else that’s wrong with society on us, but I’ll be damned if I’ll take the fall for Japanese porno statues.

  7. Sallyp says:

    I must say, that picture of Namor is simply scrumptious.

  8. Matt Maxwell says:

    As a straight dude, I’d suggest that the last toy pictured is actually for skeeves.

  9. M says:

    I thought at first the x-men were falling, so ya know freefall but it looks like they’re running. Maybe the artist caught him on a back swing?
    Manscaping, funny cause it’s Wolverine and he’s defined visually by wild unkempt hair everywhere else. Maybe Keeping his bush trimmed is so time consuming he just doesn’t have time to deal with the rest. Granted it is an odd priority.

    The primary reason for trimming down there is making it look bigger, so it all goes back to my original point.

  11. Tony says:

    Wolverine is a grower, not a show-er.

    “Wolverine is a grower, not a show-er.”

    More of a re-grower, actually.

  13. M says:

    Re: ‘re-grower’
    ugh. The pun it hurts. Not that I have room to complain.

    Re: Purpose of manscaping.

    I dunno there’s also aesthetics and helping your friends avoid a mothful of hair.
    Besides it’s Wolverine, compare his ‘do to yours now extrapolate from your bush…and imagine the unrealistic proportions he’d need to put on a good show in the locker room.
    As for the pic I’d definitely stick with the backswing story if I were him, or more likely just pop a claw and growl.

    “Palm Beach Sugar Daddy Ken”

    Well, here come to nightmares…
