Welcome back to DC2 Illustrated, the only title in the DC2 where you aren't bogged down by tons of reading to see those awesome covers that start out each little stories the writers put forth. And when I say little it is with the upmost ammount of contempt. Bitter contempt.

So here is where you come to see the newest collection of art that we managed to scrounge together since the last time we did one of these things. Herein you'll find, exclusively, a series of saucy pinups created exclusively for this issue alone, with nearly a week worth of lead in time!!! That's right, a whole week! But not only will you see a barage of swim suit pin ups, there will be various covers that were never used and of course contest entries that will be put up here for your enjoyment as well... That's right folks, we are certainly going all out this time 'round.

So, as our former Editor In Chief coined oh so long ago, "There's something for everyone in DC2 Illustrated, so sit back, relax, and enjoy our feature presentation!"

We'll kick this off with the team that pretty much can't go half an hour without bearing more flesh than you'll see in this picture. Who else BUT the New Outsiders?


-ArtTeach

[brigante133]

Speaking of the New Outsiders, this little lady has been making quite a stir in that title I am told.


-AI Carlos

[brigante133]

And because she's so nice, it never hurts to look at her twice, here is Tuppers fully clothed but just as hot pinup for Zee.


-Tupper

[brigante133]

And HERE is a never before used cover for the latest issue of New Outsiders


-Borize

[brigante133]

Speaking of controversial young heroinnes, while some of you were not privy to the bickering that went on behind the scenes regarding her new costume, here she is in a swimsuit, Donna Troy:


-Glantern133

[brigante133]

Just to show you what i mean by controversy, here are a handfull of the many (and I mean MANY) costume designs that were submitted.



I think you get the picture.

[brigante133]

And now another character that is near and dear to my heart since I spent nearly a year or so avoiding writing her stories, Power Girl:


-ArtTeach

[brigante133]

But Art doesn't just draw her nicely when she's wearing nearly nothing...

Okay... we've hardly ever seen her any other way, but he can't help it, she's hardly ever decent...

[brigante133]

But what fun is it showing just one nearly nude member of Powers Inc.? Positively NONE. At all. Ever.


-AI Carlos

[brigante133]

SPEAKING of Powers, Inc. characters in swim suits, who are these ravishing young women? That's right, its none other than Fire and Ice, quite possibly the characters most associated with that amazing title that have (to my knowledge) never even been mentioned at all.


-ArtTeach

[brigante133]

Now for a quick change of pace, here are the images that might have been (and in one case is) the banner for DC2 from a banner contest back in August:


-Leadslinger


-GoldK


-Tupper


-AI Carlos


-Glantern133

and another that sadly missed the deadline:


-ArtTeach

[brigante133]

But back to the "theme" of this issue, here is none other than Wonder Woman bathing like some kind of very ferocious Disney character:


-Goldk

[brigante133]

Could the beautiful warrior be what these two are looking at? Could be, what with the super vision and all...


-ArtTeach

[brigante133]

Here's a girl who you'd be sorry to get caught sneaking a peak at, D.E.O. agent Chloe Sullivan:

[brigante133]

And a dude you probably couldn't see even if you really wanted to peak in on him:

[brigante133]

But really who wants to see that old guy when Aquaman and Mera are hangin' around? Although I'm not sure why THEY would require swimsuits...


AI Carlos

[brigante133]

Speaking of things that require no swimsuits... The HOLIDAY banner contestants!

Okay, that transition is terrible but who cares?


-Crow



-ArtTeach


-GoldK


-JrFan


-Glantern133

[brigante133]

SPEAKING of terrible segues...

Here's Nightwing in a swim suit for all you Dick lovers:

[brigante133]

I feel a little bad one particular lady wasnt showcased here but thankfully ArtTeach was kind enough to include her in an epic display of flesh...

ladies and gentleman...

the baby's got back...

and front...

and sides...

the incomparable Amanda Waller (and friends):

[brigante133]

Alas, a picture of a group that truly deserves to close off this little installment of DC2's collective art so far this year and a section of the last, the Justice League:


-Tupper

[brigante133]

Well, that's pretty much it this time around. I'd like to thank the artists who participated in bringing this one together and bring shame upon all of you who didn't... you know who you are...

And as they say you don't have to go home but you can't really stay here. Well, i guess you COULD but what would be the point of that really? You'd just be staring at this post and that's no fun, you COULD be reading something else on the site that is amazing in its own right... something perhaps written or co written by Ramon Villalobos... I'm sure if you look hard enough you'll find something.

In the immortal words of the ever-eloquent Porky Pig, "That's all Folks."
