Brie Larson Captain Marvel showing off her big ass, realista

However, Campbell was also an equal opportunity ass man, as when he took over cover duties on , he made sure that Spider-Man’s skintight costume showed everything, including his backside. This was a far departure from the early days of Marvel, where Stan Lee would actively squelch any cover showing Spider-Man’s butt, with artists like Jack Kirby re-drawing Steve Ditko’s covers to make sure that no ass was visible.
During his run on , John Byrne was a big proponent of the “illusion of change.” The way he saw it, he lost one super-powered character, the Thing (in the aftermath of Marvel Super Heroes’ Secret Wars) and then added another one in She-Hulk. When he added She-Hulk to the team, you could tell that Byrne had a blast drawing the voluptuous beauty and he even had an issue where a sleazy magazine publisher took pictures of her sunbathing naked.
As noted earlier, the standards of the comic book industry were a lot different prior to the 1990s. It would be very rare to see an artist draw a superhero’s ass in a scene. That is what made Mark Beachum stands out so much as an artist for Marvel in the mid-1980s. Beachum drew a number of issues of Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man and Web of Spider-Man in 1985 and 1986 (including both the 1985 and the 1986 Spectacular Spider-Man Annuals) and Beachum made sure to draw him plenty of asses.
Benes then launched Justice League of America in 2006 with Brad Meltzer and Black Canary was along for the ride, meaning that Benes drew a bunch more of Canary’s ass. Benes broke into Marvel and DC as a protege of an artist that you’ll see later on in the countdown.
