sketchbook spam: heroines of heroing edition



Poor Wonder Woman's had a hard time of it lately and I hate her for killing Max and what's with all this I SAID SHRINK, I WANNA KILL stuff lately? You suck, DC!




She was my favorite in Junior High, even with that stupid hair. Also, if you walk by Columbus Circle and the only comment you can think of is, "Hey! That's where Ms. Marvel fought the Scorpion," people look at you funny.

Models for both of these are from drug ads in an old Newsweek. I forget what drugs. Of course, if the advertising is anything to go by, every prescription drug on offer these days enables you to fly kites and ride horseys, while simultaneously having sex, so I suppose it doesn't really matter.

You can ride the horseys but you will leave your gall bladder and kidneys behind...

Seriously(ish), why do they run ads for prescription drugs, but don't mention what they're supposed to do? "Hey Doc, I saw this ad for Tailspinin on the news. Is that something that could help me?" "Not unless you've got a prostate."

random lurker appears to dispense knowledge!

it's cause there's a law that if you specify what it's for you have to also list side effects and all that unpleasant stuff. they just want to get the name wedged in your head before they start with the ads that mention kidney death and bladder explosion.
