    SOLICITATIONS: The Skater debuts in Champions #54

    Press ReleaseBy Press ReleaseNovember 7, 20117 Comments2 Mins Read

    Press Release

    The newest star in the Heroic Publishing pantheon is the irrepressible SKATER, who makes her comic book debut this month in the pages of CHAMPIONS #54. Beginning in this issue of Heroic’s flagship CHAMPIONS title, Doctor Jimi Tucker dons her trademark purple-and-white costume, puts on a pair of ice skates, and sets out to do battle with the forces of evil, armed with powers over friction, momentum, and inertia that seemingly violate the fundamental laws of physics.

    Following this initial adventure, by writer/creator Dennis Mallonee, with artists Andrew Pepoy and Jeff Brennan, the SKATER is on tap to appear in at least four more issues of CHAMPIONS. Her origin story is scheduled to appear in CHAMPIONS #57, with further adventures to follow in CHAMPIONS #60, 62, and 64.

    Interestingly, although this is the Skater’s very first comic book appearance, she is in fact one of the oldest of Heroic Publishing’s stable of characters, with roots that date back to the early 1980s. Indeed, before the final decision was made to go with Flare, Icestar, and the several other characters who appeared in the original six-issue Champions mini-series published in the mid-1980s by Eclipse, the Skater was under serious consideration for a leading role.

    Now at last, twenty-five years later, in the pages of CHAMPIONS #54, the irrepressible SKATER finally makes her comic book debut!

      Apparently this artist has a reputation for making sure that A) the women are all posed with their legs spread and B) crotch shots are anatomically correct.

      I am tired of so called artists just tracing over porn pictures and using them as covers or pin-ups. Learn how to draw, figure drawings, practice and practice, no cut and paste and trace porn to make a cover. This really pisses me off. UGHH!!!

      Yup. This is pretty porn-ish (porn-y?). I’m surprised it’s not called “ChamPORNs”.

      Also in this issue Tigress (who is also naked)
      but you see guys making and wearing super hero costumes is hard work so these women just painted costumes on them selves

      I’d buy THAT for a dollar! Wait, you want $4.99?
