Sunday Trade: Hellcat

[lurkerwithout]

Patsy Walker: Hellcat written by Kathryn Immonen, art by David LaFuente, colors by John Rauch and letters by Dave and Natalie Lanphear. Plus "The Girl Who Could Be You" by Kathryn and Stuart Immonen

Patsy Walker. Super-model, super-hero, super bad chooser of ex-husbands. Seriously, one crazy super-villain and one wayward Son of Satan. Member of the Defenders and the Avengers and Was-Dead-But-God-Better Club. Which explains why Immonen portrays her as utterly unfazable by the bizarro Inuit spirit journey she ends up on, tracking down a teen-age runaway. Giant wolves and monster bears and talking rocks? Whatever, been there, done that, headlined the fashion release of the t-shirt...

And Immonen's breezy style is matched well with her artists here. Both in the main story with David Lafuente and in the bonus short, a tale of mystic clonage, by her husband, the uber-talent Stuart Immonen...

What is it about catgirls in comics that they're so frequently drawn in a similar style. They're almost interchangeable.

And is it just me or is there an excessive number of redheads in comics? Maybe excessive is the wrong word. Disproportionate. There's a disproportionate number of redheads.

Marvel is crawling with red-heads and DC is trying to corner the market on blondes...

I have a few Avengers comics with Hellcat, she was well-done in those, but looks as if she's lost a bit of buxom-ness since then, she used to be uber-curvy.
