Virgin Mobile has launched a UK ad campaign featuring a hypermuscular
granny, called "Superbuff". The campaign is being run by London marketing firm DMC, with the spots and web site produced by interactive media shop 12foot6.
Amusingly, the "viral" marketing site appears to be down, or at least
not listed in DNS. I suspected initially that 12foot6 had set the
server to refuse net connections from North America, perhaps having
been too
successful at meme-spreading for its own good. So I pointed my
Mac at a public UK proxy server (to make it appear as if I were in the
UK), but the site still wouldn't load. Whois.sc confirms that
it's inactive. (There are Quicktime and WMV file links at
the DMC site.)
So in a couple days check Superbuff.com [dead link],
maybe by then it will be back up. In the meantime, they'd better
hope Richard Branson doesn't find out about this. I'm told he
eats people who disappoint him.
Many of you have probably noticed that I've added Kim Chambers' KimFlex site to the banner rotation. It's an explicitly adult site - NSFW.
Chambers is well known for her adult films work, including Busty Pom Pom Girls (2000) and Tit Happens (2004). She's been working out heavier the last few years and started competing in figure contests in 2002. KimFlex features a number of muscular models in addition to Chambers.
Leonard Kirk is a comic artist who has often drawn powerful female
characters. He's known for his realistic figure depictions, and I
think his realistic cloth work is also standout. (When he draws
clothes, they look like clothes.)
I first became aware of him in 1997 when he drew Ultra Girl,
a three-issue Marvel miniseries about a young woman whose modeling
career aspirations are interrupted when she suddenly develops super
powers (and muscles). Kirk drew Supergirl after that, and then
JSA, with lots of smaller projects in between. I think he's
currently drawing Aquaman.
To my knowledge "Lois Lane - Superwoman!" was the first of many times that Superman's Girlfriend® gained his powers. In the story Lois actually only acquires the powers in a dream after suffering a bump on the head, so it's what they call "an imaginary story". (Aren't they all?) But it's fun, anyway, and the artists render her with a bit more robust a physique than normal.
I'm not sure if this issue is available in any published reprints.
