In and Out of Trouble
When Lightning Lady says she’s thinking about “In and Out,” she’s definitely not talking about burgers. Unfortunately, Angus the Minotaur is still stuck on the food angle — and it’s making for one very awkward (and unintentionally revealing) conversation about what she really wants tonight.

A six-panel comic featuring Lightning Lady, a blonde superhero in a blue-and-yellow costume, and her boyfriend Angus, a muscular minotaur wearing a white apron. Angus reacts loudly when she suggests hamburgers. She reminds him he said she could be honest, and he encourages her to share what she wants without judgment. As she hesitates, thought bubbles show fast food options like Jack in the Box, Steak ’n Shake, and In-N-Out. Angus grows increasingly stressed, facepalming and admitting he dislikes those places. In the final panel, Lightning Lady claims she stopped thinking about food while still gesturing, with a thought bubble indicating otherwise, as Angus is taken aback.
Wonder Woman turns 65!
The
Philadelphia Daily News has an excellent package on Wonder Woman today. It talks about how her mythos has lasted sixty-five years and previews the new WW book as well. It also features an illustration by Yours Truly, so if you’re in the circulation area, pick up a copy. 🙂 Click on the thumb on the right for a better look.

“She is the first female superhero that has crossed generations and is important to everyone as a role model,” said comic writer Jimmy Palmiotti (“Painkiller Jane”). “And that costume… woo-ha!”
“She is empowering to women and irresistible to men,” opined comic and TV writer Christos Gage (“Law and Order: SVU”). “She embodies female strength, beauty and character.” Read more. 
Unfortunately, the story doesn’t spend any time with the most fascinating aspects of Wonder Woman — like the fact that she was created by psychologist
William Moulton Marston, to appeal to young girls. The psychologist fell in love with his creation, writing the comics for six years. But perhaps the most intriguing aspect of the Wonder Woman mythos is the predominant themes of
bondage.
