The discussion takes off as the gang talks SIEGE: THE CABAL, AKIRA, HOTEL HARBOR VIEW, the BATTLE ROYALE novel, as well as Marvel’s cosmic books. We then dovetail into a talk on sexism, portrayals of sex, and just plain sex in comics! Good Gracious! Topics include differences between male and female writers and artists when portraying sex, Power Girl’s costume, and the difficulty in capturing Wonder Woman’s essence as a character.
