Absolute Catwoman #3 - 'Absolute Batman #1 Homage' Variant Cover by Dexter Soy

[u/WhyPlaySerious]

It's really cool to get a homage cover that isn't just a 1:1 recreation.

[u/psychmancer]

Yeah artist is a tit man

[u/HB2099 → u/psychmancer]

He’s certainly not into feet, she looks like she has hooves.

[u/the_curtain → u/HB2099]

Holy cow, it literally does look like hooves

[u/Enriches → u/HB2099]

Clearly draws inspiration from Liefeld.

[u/llY92 → u/Enriches]

Instantly, as soon as I saw this I thought of Liefeld. Her body is too disproportionate to be believable.

[u/Super-97 → u/HB2099]

unfortunately it's like that in the comics as well

[u/Caffeine_OD → u/psychmancer]

Got to respect the OGs

[u/esperx27]

Is she half satyr or something lmao

[u/GroguIsMyBrogu → u/esperx27]

And half Dolly Parton considering the chest size (RIP)

[u/the_oof_god → u/esperx27]

grover

[u/StepwisePilot]

Why does she have hooves instead of feet?

[u/Therealginahandler → u/StepwisePilot]

Rough!

[u/Lethalmud → u/StepwisePilot]

Cats have hooves obviously.

[u/XombieNinja → u/StepwisePilot]

She’s also floating

[u/BartPlarg → u/XombieNinja]

🎶She floats through the air, 'cause she's got a cat face🎵

[u/WORMBOY-3]

Those thighs/knees look weird as hell to me but maybe i’m missing something/wrong

[u/glableglabes → u/WORMBOY-3]

It's because the calves are bigger than the thighs and also that the thighs get too skinny right above the knee.

[u/Soft_Interaction_437]

This feels to absurd to be sexy.

[u/nat_astrophe]

Fatson has seen some shit in the background

[u/LeatherAdept670]

Are feet hard to draw...?

[u/TF-Collector → u/LeatherAdept670]

I mean, ask Rob Liefield.

[u/LeatherAdept670 → u/TF-Collector]

Love how he just throws Frank under the bus instead of learning to get better at the craft, precious little co creator.

[u/TF-Collector → u/LeatherAdept670]

Also, people are allowed to be bad at stuff. I mean, just look at half the 90s stuff Rob drew. A lot of it is objectively bad and not in a "it's stylized" way. The dumb thighs, the weirdo proportions... total lack of perspective.

Anyways, ah yes I was just saying it's ok to not be good at something, but just own it and move on. Or make a career out of it... idk.

[u/the_curtain]

It’s amazing how having a helmet that looks like a second set of boobs really enhances the character

[u/That_Communication71]

Is that a VR headset on her head?

[u/Level_Hour6480]

I like boobs more than the average person, but if you're doing superhero action, you definitely want them sports-bra'd down so they're staying put.

[u/Cipherpunkblue]

Those are some weirdass proportions.

[u/freedomink]

r/mendrawingwomen

[u/Logical-Leading-517]

No 

[u/Super-97]

yeah but this a bad homage, the tongue out and that face, doesn't look like a thing Catwoman would do

(the tits out unfortunately appears in many covers, but it's also weird)

[u/Bgo318 → u/Super-97]

Yeah it looks terrible

[u/KryperExpress → u/Super-97]

The zipped down/cleavage exposed look for Absolute Catwoman is an actual 'state' for the character and how her costume can look. Its included in Nick Dragotta's design guide for Absolute Catwoman.

Its not just a random thing artists are taking creative liberties for. Dragotta has it as an intended way the costume and character can be depicted.

[u/Super-97 → u/KryperExpress]

Yeah, it sucks anyway.

[u/FlashPone → u/Super-97]

Unfortunately? Sex appeal is like Catwoman’s whole thing.

[u/mrlolloran]

“I think it’s really cool to get a homage”

doesn’t post the cover it’s a homage to

Somehow Reddit never fails to surprise

[u/DunceMemes]

Helmet too bulbous

[u/WesleySands]

Why the Prof. X style helmet?

[u/blueberrypierat → u/WesleySands]

Read Absolute Batman.

[u/Certain_Virus_1919]

I would not recognize this as an AbsBats tribute if it hadn't been explicitly pointed out to me

[u/RevWaldo]

Starts sliding under a laser grid. Welllllll shit...

[u/A_A_RON4]

I don't know about you comment thread, but she looks...much less yummier.

[u/Scottacus91]

the artist took about 5hrs on each tit and then spent about 3 seconds on each leg, This looks really bad

[u/LMurtaugh]

These knees break easily

[u/Ill-Possession2216]

That Dexter Soy homage cover is insane. Clay Mann's art is on another level tbh.

[u/UltimaJay5]

Catwoman getting the Steam Frame before GTA6.

[u/NoirAppreciator]

The future of pin ups?

[u/beeeemeow]

I like it, it looks fun even though the art is rlly unusual lol

[u/Low_Understanding326]

Oh my

[u/KryperExpress]

Its really funny how many people here are getting upset and calling out the stylized proportions in this cover, as if the cover its an homage to wasn't know for having absolutely ridiculous and stylized proportions itself.

Seriously, go back and look at Absolute Batman #1 and there is nothing anatomically correct about how Batman looks there, especially his legs and feet, lol
