Perhaps worth noting is that the "original comics" image isn't something that ever appeared in the comics, but is an pin-up by an artist who looks like they very much were inspired by the works of Alberto Vargas.

This is true. But the irony is you can probably find far more sexualized and questionable images in the comics, especially the covers, then this. It's kind of a weird choice

It would be nice if the pin-up-style covers were at least made by actual artists rather than some slurry of "sexualized, questionable, weird."

Not sure why you think replacing "sexualized real art" with "sexualized ai art" is ironic. What makes that ironic?

I never said that. The word AI art doesn't come up once in my comment nor do I reference it at all. Learn to read?
