Typically, I enjoy searching out the images I use for these posts. Looking up to see if my favorite artist has taken on one or both of characters doing battle this week. Like this week’s battle, the number three seed Batgirl: taking on the number twelve seed, Supergirl: Notice I’m using the pics I used before. Have you ever tried to Bing two female superheroes together? Even with the safe search turned on? Just embarrassing… Batgirl wins, 15 to 10 Here’s the least salacious photo I could find of the two together: Perhaps you don’t want to contribute to the poll, that’s cool. You do your thing. You can tweet your choice. Just don’t forget the hashtag #LBHQuery so I can track them down easier and we’ll go from there! And just to get you ready, here’s the current standings on the DC side of things. Next week, more ladies squaring off from the indie bracket. And I if find a picture of them together, like the ones I found today, I may have to quit...

So, in doing my research for this next match up, I was reminded of many things, but we’ll get there. The fourth match up for DC Comics sees the number four seed, Damian Wayne take on the number twelve seed, Supergirl: And that research reminded me how much interaction these two characters had: It also reminded me how great some of that RIGHT before the new 52 stuff was. And hey, remember when Nick Spencer (Superior Foes of Spider-Man, Ant-Man) was writing Superman family books? Ah, what could have been: Supergirl wins, 28 to 13 Perhaps you don’t want to contribute to the poll, that’s cool. You do your thing. You can tweet your choice. Just don’t forget the hashtag #LBHQuery so I can track them down easier and we’ll go from there! Next week, round four continues as we moved back to indie books as two ladies from completely opposite ends of the spectrum face...
Weekly Question 07/18/14 #LBHQuery...

Earlier this week, as mentioned on the show this week, Marvel announced some big changes for Thor: Come this October, the one who wields the Hammer will be female. People were up in arms over this! Like it never happened before. This is comics folks, everything changes! Heck, my friend Gavin wrote an article about the other SEVEN TIMES that Thor was a woman. And that got me thinking, this isn’t the first time Marvel has done this. A few years back, Pepper Potts donned a version of the Iron Man armor as Rescue. Back in the 90’s, in the MC2 universe, Captain America was replaced by Sharon Carter’s niece as American Dream. That can”t be right…oh wait, here’s the correct image. Whilst these were mostly temporary, DC is not above adding to their universe female representations of their popular male heroes, like Supergirl and Batgirl to name a few So what about you? What is your favorite gender swapped comic book character? Was it from a ‘What If’ or ‘Elseworlds’? Was it female to male? What about the baddies? I’m sure someone out there likes the Joker’s Daughter! Let us know in the comments section below or tweet them to us with the hashtag...
