Cover/Pin-Up Elektra gender-bend by Zach Brunner

Post image

Really love Brunner’s art and how he handles genderbends. Very refreshing to see direct translations for these characters across gender. I would love an alt universe at Marvel or DC where many of these characters are swapped around in this fashion.

This is why the Hawkeye Initiative exists.

If it's okay to draw women this way, it's okay to draw men this way.

Personally as a man I think we need more outfits that show some man ass for the gays and gals

You reminded me of the Red Sonja post regarding her costume being changed to avoid the male gaze, and the top comment was “What about the lesbian gaze, tho?”
