I was watching a documentry the other day talking about how the comics indusrty helped the war effort in WWII. It got me thinking about how the characters themselves could have been marketed (if they were real). It something I can imagine Alex Ross tackling at some point since he's such a fan of the Golden Age stuff.

Just to add some extra relaity I aged the poster quite a bit. Of course the model is Monica Belluci (who I have always though would be best for the part).

Wonder Woman is a © copyright of DC comics.

Lucy Lawless (in her prime) would have been intersting too. I really love this one. I would like to see where you could take this, maybe a hot female "Uncle Sam", or even some superhero nose art on a few bombers? A lot of room to play with, thanks!

yes, I remember hearing about the super hero thing helping out some in the war. This was a most creative idea. Great job!

To have found You, and still be looking for You; it's the soul's paradox of love. You fill my cup, I lift it up for more. I won't stop not that I'm free. I'll be chasing You like You chase me.
It's a beautiul sound, moving through the crowd.

I really like the look and feel of this, you did an excellent job on making it seem like a *real* poster of that day and age. Great job. :D

Fezzik: Why do you wear a mask? Were you burned by acid, or something like that?
Westley:
Oh no. It's just that they're terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing them in the future.
