    Default CENSORED Marvel art/stories?

    (..well maybe not so much censored as rejected by editors/"No can do")

    Know any examples? Here's some Ive seen or heard about :

    Shatterstar stabs Juggernaut in the eye (Liefield X-force/Mcfarlane Spidey crossover)

    "The K#### known as Sabretooth" . Dunno how the anti-semitic slur got there but the issue was withdrawn but not without a few copies circulating...

    Princess Diana as a member of Mike Allred's Xforce

    Others?

    A page in a SHIELD story by Jim Steranko had some panels redone to have less of an implication that Nick and the Countess were in bed together.

    I remember the one where The phone off the hook was too suggestive and the comics code authority said no go one that I thought that was kinda silly.

    Some Frank Cho covers got censored.

    He also made a Shanna the She Devil mini that was intended to be published in MAX. With a lot of blood and boobs.
    But Marvel decided to publish it as a SFW comics, so they kept the gore but hid the Dirty Pillows.

    Apparently, the topless shots of Colleen and Misty from Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #32 (1977) were censored when re-released later on: http://www.supermegamonkey.net/chron...u_3233_d.shtml

    "Chris's plot called for Colleen and Misty to move from point 'A' to point 'B', fighting a $@%!load of bad guys along the way. My thought was, 'When a male protagonist was in that situation, nine times out of ten, he would end up with the shirt ripped off of his back. It would be very sexist of me to assume that a woman wouldn't fight as hard or be in a less precarious situation so...' the shirts were ripped off of their backs. Besides, the female form is enjoyable to look at and draw." - Marshall Rogers (artist)

    I haven't seen them, but IIRC, the original Tomb of Dracula comics were code approved. If something was covered up for reprints, it must have slipped through editing when published.

    The story I read in Wizard was that the letterer turned in a sloppy word balloon. "K*k* was supposed to be "killer." Someone in the production dept misread it while cleaning up the art.
