Whose Butt? A Humorous and Just For Fun Comics Quiz

It’s been another rough year for those of us who love comics, for a myriad reasons. If there could be multiple myriad, it would be for a multiple myriad reasons.

So. Let’s take a minute to pause and ponder the reasons comics are wonderful.

They are a melding of art and words. They’re a form of storytelling people have been experimenting with since time immemorial. They give us heroes and villains. They challenge us to be better, to do better. They give us socio-political exemplars: even Lex Luthor, for instance, divested himself of interest in his business holdings when he was elected president (no, I’m not kidding).

Comics also give us nice butts to look at.

Oh, calm down, you know it’s true.

The other day, Nicola Scott (she who made Nightwing’s butt so famous that in its Grayson incarnation, its individual cheeks were named) tweeted some Batman sketches. Unable to resist the opportunity, I retweeted with the query, “But will there be butts?” which Ms. Scott was kind enough to like.

All this to say that, given the proper circumstances, there’s nothing wrong with enjoying the human body so long as one remembers: that which one is appreciating belongs to someone else and isn’t one’s to do with as one pleases (the difference between, say, admiring Jason Momoa’s Arthur Curry abs and salivating over Poison Ivy’s hyper-sexualized corpse as drawn by Clay Mann. For example). And there’s nothing wrong with enjoying grown-up butts as portrayed in comics (especially as drawn by Nicola Scott). And because comics has been such a trash fire and since it’s been so difficult to find any levity and humor in them lately, we thought we’d find some for you.

And thus, we bring you this edition of…
