LOVEY HAITI

From The Line It Is Drawn #188: "In honor of his new film next week, it’s Spider-Man team-up time! Just pick a fictional character from any medium you choose (Comic books, movies, TV shows, novels, epic poems, songs, whatever strikes your fancy) to team-up with Spider-Man!" BigMike20X6 suggested "Sister Voodoo".

SAVAGE SPIDER-MAN


From The Line It Is Drawn #186: "In tribute to the passing of the Ultimate Warrior, team-up a comic book character with a famous professional wrestler. It doesn’t have to be the Warrior himself, but I’d imagine that it would be nice if he could appear a few times next week at the very least." Ted_LisaDahlman suggested: "Randy Savage vs. Spider-Man".

BROKEBACK HAWKEYE

I'll break this down as succinctly as I can:
Some comic book artists draw female characters quite disrespectfully. Particularly egregious is a pose which has come to known as the "brokeback" in which a woman is drawn twisted so that both her breasts and ass are visible like so:

To demonstrate how ridiculous these drawings are, a movement started (I think by Noelle "Gingerhaze" Stevenson?) wherein artists would draw the male comic book character Hawkeye (from the Avengers) in the same demeaning pose and/or clothing as the woman in one of these illustrations. It came to known as the Hawkeye Initiative.

This week's The Line It Is Drawn was Hawkeye Initiative inspired. B_Granderson suggested Spider-Man as interpreting Guillem March's cover for Catwoman #1 from summer 2011.
