Description

Artwork by J. Scott Campbell for Marvel Comics new book, Invincible Iron Man starring teenager Riri Williams.  Riri is the new Ironman but going by the code name; Ironheart.  But this cover has been pulled because it is too sexy.  

This was the statement released from Marvel; 

Only a day after the cover was revealed, Marvel and Midtown Comics have decided to pull its retailer exclusive “Invincible Iron Man” #1 variant that portrays Riri Williams in what some interpret to be a sexualized depiction of the character. The cover, by J. Scott Campbell, drew some criticism from fans and creators for its portrayal of the teen hero.

Marvel and Midtown decided to pull the cover in a joint decision. Another variant, depicting the same pose, but with Riri in full Ironheart armor, will still be released by Midtown.

Too Sexy: You have got to be kidding???

People are such idiots.

This reminds me of an issue of Static where he and his girl were smooching on the couch. The idiots running DC deemed that cover WAY TOO SEXY and they wound up cropping the cover to only show a close-up of the two kissing.
