    But why should 'marketing to boys' equal only male superheroes? And why shouldn't they try to market to both? Certainly on a cover featuring nine characters they could include one or two female heroes?

    The myth is that younger boys won't accept products that's seen to be aimed at girls therefore female presence in such products is reduced. And that it's easier to get girls to like boy things than it is to get boys to like girl things.

    Yeah, especially since these are the cartoon designs. That means that Wasp, Captain Marvel, Ms Marvel, and Black Widow could all have been included. Yet we don't even get one of them? Sexist! Widow was on the previous three covers of this title, though they had six years of no ladies before that:

    These aren't the cartoon designs. They look too high-quality .

    Hmm. Nice to see she'll be showing up later, but that's really strange. And I'm not a fan of her face, there, or the goofiness of the way she has her costume on the bathtub itself - it's going to get wet!

    Kudransky's artwork is AWFUL, IMO.

    It didn't seem too bad for the male faces, but ugh. Nat just doesn't look like herself at all.

    Yeah, if the costume wasn't there, I would've guessed it was Mary Jane Watson. That seems out of character for Nat.

    Yeah, cute and chirpy looking. I love MJ a LOT, but she and Nat shouldn't be interchangeable.

    Do you mean on that linked page? Because those are three different artists.
    I think Zemo got the worst treatment there.

    Inb4 I misunderstood you and end up looking like a fool.
