I’ve got to think that Blondie is the sexyest woman in the comics (or, as Jessica Rabbit would say, is just drawn that way). Going way back to Li’l Abner, I’d vote 2nd place for Moonbeam McSwine. Any other nominations? ---

The Neal Adams version of Black Canary. Almost too hot for the Comics Code. There are few comic book artists better than Adams, and hundreds of imitators (ultimately, he’s more influential than any other comic book artist – and I include Jack Kirby). ---

Depends on what you find hot, really. [Power Girl](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d2/Powergirlsb4.jpg/180px-Powergirlsb4.jpg) might get a _lot_ of votes from the guys on this board. ---

[Faye Valentine](http://absoluteanime.com/cowboy_bebop/faye.htm) (Even if she is 77 years old). ---

Not from me, she won’t. I’d rather vote for the Greg Land or Barry Kitson versions of the Black Canary. ---

For the kinkier set, The Baroness. And then, there’s Elasti-Girl, a.k.a. Mrs. Incredible. Baby got back. 😃 Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow, has class. And for the Victorian Underwear fans, I’d recommend Agatha Heterodyne, from the _Girl Genius_ comic. Google for that. ---

Actually, I’m going to amend that. Cherry’s mom. (She wasn’t married, and Cherry’s father is in question, although it might have been James Dean. Or Abraham Lincoln. Or maybe Pathagoras.)(Time travel, don’t you know.) 😃 ---

Cat woman has that S&M thing going on so well, but dealing with her boyfriend could be a problem if he’s prepared. Jet Girl, from the Tank Girl comics is probably best. High nerdosity, not nearly as crazy as TG and very cute. ---

In the Lil’ Abner division I’ll take Stupefying’ Jones or Daisy Mae over Moonbeam any old day. 😃 My nominations would be Josie, Val and Harmony aka [Josie & the Pussycats](http://images.amazon.com/images/P/1879794071.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg) ---

Any of the women in Howard Chaykin’s **American Flagg**. I’m partial to Crystal Gayle Marakova, but there wasn’t a woman there that wasn’t hotter than a thousand suns, especially since they all seemed to wear kinky underwear and were more than willing to show it off. ---

I’m all about the Huntress, especially the animated JLU one. Friend of mine drools over Hawkgirl. Also Jade and Stargirl. And here’s a NSFW [http://superslut.ytmnd.com/](http://superslut.ytmnd.com/) Kara for all you fanboys. ---

Wonder Woman would definitely top my list! Also on the list would be: Shanna the She-Devil Sif (Thor’s girlfriend) The Wasp Black Canary Phantom Lady Wonder Girl (in her skintight red costume from the 1970s and early 1980s) Supergirl (my preferred costume was her really tiny hot pants ca. 1970s-80s) Power Girl (even though so many artists drew her as being perpetually angry!) Vampirella Pantha ---
