Femme Fatalities Message Board

Widow started as a villain, IIRC. She was a KGB agent, trained out of the infamous Red Room, who targeted Tony Stark, and whose ex was the Crimson Dynamo. Only after meeting and having her doomed love affair with Hakweye did she turn coat on the Soviets and join SHIELD.

Which widow is that? Natasha Romanov? Always loved the way Paul Gulacy used to draw her back in the early 80's...

Yeah. And yeah, Gulacy was brilliant with her!

I've always had a thing for Black Canary ever since I saw an old Batman comic where she was knocked out and then tied to a chair in her bra and panties. Has to be the classic fishnet look though. Haven't really seen any movies though where she's done justice. It's also the fact that she's a smoking hot brunette under her blonde wig means you can have the best of both worlds hair-colour wise.


Zatanna would be a close second for similar reasons lol

Don't like Zatanna's new costume - prefered the top hat and tails with thighboots

Definitely Wonder Woman for me, the TV show got to me as did the Batman re-runs on Saturday mornings over here in England.

Big screen I would have to say Elizabeth Taylor around her Cleopatra era, in modern times I would go for Kate Beckinsale and for sheer fantasy Carmen Electra.

Totally agree!

I don't know if she counts, but I have a thing for Ramona Flowers from the Scott Pilgrim series. She's got that whole hipster cool thing going on.

I grew up loving Vampirella. The 1970's Warren Vampirella, wearing red-slingback bikini, black below-the-knee boots, escaped from her dying planet (Drakulon) to Earth. The story was intentionally derived from Superman. However, she suffered great sadness as she needed to drink the blood of the people of her new planet, until she meets a scientist who not only created a "True Blood" serum, but also attempted to sacrifice Vampirella to a demon of the evil "Cult of Chaos". Escaping, where the scientist is killed by the demon for failing to provide a sacrifice, Vampirella makes it her job to destroy the "Cult of Chaos". From here, Vampirella encounters all sorts of tentacled monsters, zombies, evil men, Dracula, etc.

Emma G would also make a great Vampirella as she almost has the exact birthmark on her breast as Vampirella. I could see Vampirella's costume used as a great chocking device. I could also see Dracula ironically sucking the blood from Vampirella.

petra looked so hot in the vampirella costume, and james mcquade has used analogs of her in numerous misty stories. you also have to love all the frank frazetta art of her

My Fave by far...

Sorry EvilBilly, but IMO she looks like she's been on the helium again...

As she should be!

It looks like Terry Dodson, but on a bad day. I do love the Dodson's art style. It's slick, shiny, and bright, and gets to the core optimism of classical superheroes.

Agree. Women in blonde wig is more sexy than those with red wig or brown wig.
