When I was playing Mystique in X-Men, I remember thinking, If I’m going to be naked in paint in front of the entire world, I’m going to look like a woman. I’m going to have curves and have boobs and have a butt. Because girls are going to look at that, and if I look like a scarecrow, they are going to think, Oh, that’s normal. It’s not normal. I’m just so sick of these young girls with diets. I remember when I was 13 and it was cool to pretend to have an eating disorder because there were rumors that Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie were anorexic. I thought it was crazy. I went home and told my mom, “Nobody’s eating bread, I just had to finish everyone’s burgers”. I think it’s really important for girls to have people to look up to and feel good about themselves.

Oh, superheroes…you sillies.
Hey, did you guys know that super artist Jake Wyatt is doing Marvel fan art for the entire month of March?! Thank your lucky stars, interneters. We’re only a few days into the month, and already there’s THIS, THIS, THIS, and THIS. Request your favorite character—you won’t be sorry (unless you don’t do it, then you will be very, very sorry).
I have this nasty habit of reacting to the exceptional with the absurd. Sorry about that. If you are a true believer, what you should be doing is making your way over to Jake’s Tumblr. If you want to stay for the silly party, then you’re welcome here any time.

HOLY BALLS!!!  Anthony Holden has gotten in on the Mighty Month of Marvel and he is THE GREATEST!!!  Go treat yourself to some of his fantastic gifs and comics!
