Silent Sanctum Manga: Defending Manara

Not that he needs defending or anything like that....

because, well fuck it...
HE'S MILO MANARA!
He can fuck'n do anything he wants!

And if that involves drawing characters in skin-tight costumes that adheres to the every curve of the female form...then so be it.Why is this suddenly such a bad thing?

The Manarameister has had years and years of experience drawing just that, sexy women!
He has won several awards/notable citations for it.
Not only is he's good at it, he's the BEST!

And OH,

had anyone ever considered that this could've been an artistic preference rather than a sexist thing?
Observe!

Same artist, almost similar poses.Same heart-shaped ass!

Like the TOLIMA JET FIGHTERS,

It's been highly speculated that these are simply stylized/artisan's depiction of fishes.
You simply can't change anything by simply complaining to the guy, it's his artistic preference! It is fuck'n ingrained to his art style. How can anybody change that?

Oh and this sort of shit has never happened before? ASS if....

Unrealistic even?
I don't think so!
Ladies and germs, we give you....THE MINAJ!

It's actually a rather realistic and believable pose!

As realistic as RIC FLAIR even!

Ok, so enough about

Let's talk about the pose. Because even that has been heavily scrutinized.

Hmm, as a matter of fact!

Not really the first time Spider-Woman was drawn in a weird way.

She's been through a lot worst before....

At this rate, the Manara version would actually serve as an improvement over it's predecessors.

And now, on to the topic at hand....

Great, you're back! So how was it?
Again, there are some issues that we all could agree with since proper anatomy & folds excuses no one.
Yes!
Not even YOU, you RICKY MARTIN look-alike, you!

Speaking of fabrics, there actually are different kinds of materials OTHER than the ones we're probably thinking of/accustomed to. Because when anyone speaks of "superhero costumes", THIS is probably what we had in mind.

Thick, heavy and most probably made out of latex.
But had anyone ever considered some lighter and breathable material like maybe like....
THIS:

Notice how the costume hugs to all the curves of the body?
Well, there you go!

And you know who else has that problem?
HER!

And who gives a shit if it looks painted on. If it looks great, then it's here to stay and if not then we'd probably won't be talking about it anyways so yeah....

We seriously appreciate the art lesson but we can't appreciate as to how this thing got blown out of proportion by the overly sensitive media. Suddenly serious news portals are weighing in on the subject. There's a Tagalog term for that: BIGLANG TALINO!

All of sudden, non-comic book readers & collectors are appalled by the level of sexism in today's comic books. Lecturing us with morality and ethics issue that we'd rather not talk about. In addition to that, is the sudden appearances of fake Tim Gunns telling us about fabrics and what it can and it can't do.But we all have to remember that we're simply talking about comics here.Loosen up, will ya?
And while we're on the subject....
Fuck you, if you want realism, then go read a newspaper or go buy a frikk'n history book.
Comics are comics and just like high-end artworks, it's not for everyone to touch and play with.

As inviting as the medium is, only a handful of people could truly appreciate the actual genius behind it.

Asking Manara to draw your cover is like asking a pornstar to masturbate on set.
It's something both special as it is magical.
