    I’m not particularly concerned about She-Blockbuster’s looks …. When Blockbuster was a guy he was always a poor man’s Hulk anyway. What I don’t like is when they take a long standing attractive muscular amazon and ugly her up. It was during this same run they turned Rampage into a fugly masculine looking snarling brute… forgetting years of characterization and appearance. Now Rampage always looked “extreme” what with the muscles and the ‘Hawk, but she always had a woman’s face, especially when she was introduced by John Byrne. She got ugly for the Justice League Unlimited cartoon and it seems to have carried over to the present. The same thing happens to She Hulk… when she buffs up, sooner or later she gets the big jaw and gnarly face. I think its editorial decisions like this (and maybe decisions by the artists themselves) that a strong woman who looks strong must always look like a man or beast.
