Oh, Meggan...

[lyssie]

Every so often, I remember that most comic fans think women in skimpy clothing with big boobs are bimboes. And none of them were more quitessentially that than Meggan from Excalibur. And I'd agree... Except that Warren Ellis pretty much blew that assumption out of the water.

Under his reign she was smart, and sometimes, she did things like this.

....so her being a two-dimensional bimbo who clings to her man jealously and has no thought but how to please him is better?

Right.

Yes, it's better in not having 400 Jean Greys running around the Marvel Universe. I prefer my universes to have varied characters -- weak, strong, smart, stupid -- not everybody conforming to the same stereotype.
