Well, well, what have we here? Yes, it's DC vs Marvel #102 (#101 was Storm spanking Wonder Woman - see it
elsewhere in the Comics Gallery). After Wonder Woman has applied the hairbrush (look closely - there it is just under WW's right hand),
Supergirl stamps Phoenix with the DC Seal of Approval right where it will do the most good. Now that's what we call corporate
rivalry - imprinting your corporate logo on the other side's fanny! Of course, the effect is somewhat
assymetrical - the one on the right really needs something on the left cheek to balance it out. It looks like Supergirl is
planning to swat Phoenix again, this time on the left side, or maybe Wonder Woman (with her government contacts) is going to borrow
the "USDA Choice" symbol from the Agriculture Dept. and stamp it on there in bright purple ink.
We love the facial expressions here: Phoenix's dismay, Supergirl's fun-loving joy, and Wonder Woman's wicked grin - she
just lives for this kind of moment!
But girls - you know it isn't very sporting for the two of you to gang up on poor Phoenix that way. For violating the
rules of superheroine sportsmanship, I'm afraid you will have to be punished. (Can anyone here guess how?)
