One of the all time stereotypes everyone here missed is that almost all super-heroines are hot. Regardless of age. Te men too. Their just ain't no real call for ugly heroes. with few exceptions. such as bouncing boy? (not sure about that name) Deadpool, (but he'll start out handsome) How a bout they're just average looking? Nope Sex sells and comics are hurting make no mistake. Stereotypes rule the industry because of how reliably they make comics sell. They are simple mathematical equations in an industry that needs revenue. And as long as we keep buying the comics they will keep packaging them the way they think we like after all if we had a problem with it we'd say something to THEM right?
