I managed to miss this one: Way back in June, Lea Hernandez did another remix, this time altering the Flash #232 cover to highlight the things that were so wrong on Heroes for Hire

[...] woman captured” etc. have been showing up with disturbing frequency since I posted Victimized Hero. Of course, that’s mostly about the Flash, but the cover with the Flash and Wonder Woman tied [...]

Considering she’s stronger than the Flash, and more-or-less invulnerable, shouldn’t she be less worried than he is?

No. She’s BLIND.

the last example is a bad one because the flash is grimacing which is appropriat, also the lasso is around ww’s throat so it’s possible she’s worried as well as choking where as the flash is just worried.

OK, that makes sense.

I always try to save my own copy of an image just to be polite. (Not that being polite stops some people…I’ve seen people hotlink my images as forum avatars or signatures. Every single post. *grumble*) At first, when I saw your comment, I wondered if I’d forgotten one.

I actually did debate over whether to link the thumbnails to the index page or the cover page, and eventually settled on the cover page, since that was more the point of the post (both here and on the Dead Flash Covers collection), and since the template does include the ads at the bottom, I figured linking to the actual page shouldn’t leech too much.

No, I just clicked on one and I got directed to the GCD… everybody should link to the GCD, it’s a wonderful site.
I guess it’s a metter of perspective, I just thought you were hotlinking because the link took me to the “High res” version of the cover on the GCD server, but it actually took me to the GCD page with the image.
I’m not very sure what exactly that is lol.

I’m not hotlinking any images from GCD. I downloaded them and uploaded them to my site. Are you saying I shouldn’t link to the GCD either?

Hi Kelson… I just thought I should point out that one is not supossed to hotlink images from the GCD.
Is just a matter of costs for them.

You should have included the cover for Flash 232 on your article, that’s a very disturbing image.
