This isn’t from a published piece (to my knowledge), it’s from a private commission.

Won’t lie, I’d gladly take a Brooks Storm from any of his art books

I'd guess a Captain Marvel can't be far behind. This is super fun

Thanks for sharing Demona! I can see the inspiration but I do question the likeness of Mark Brooks art.

I'd be on board with that, Brooks is a great artist.

Yea, I agree the face doesn't match. She is also obviously less buxom too.

I don't mind the hand position change, but I wish they had kept the fun smile.

Come to think of it, this is probably the most faithful rendition of a female character ever... in a comic-book boobs-and-butt pose.

I'll still keep an eye on it, but her standing on a leg scares me a lot.

Her eyes seem to go back and forth from blue to green depending on who's doing the art.

Example:





Her eyes are blue in her new ongoing and Nick Spencer's Amazing Spider-Man run (current).

So either works. Sideshow isn't wrong here.

Piece looks great, but I'm really not a fan of the portrait. Definitely agree on the "betty boop" ish description.

I always thought her eyes were blue, while Catwoman has green eyes.

Huh, Marvel Wiki says green. Well, I’lol be damned. She is also 5’10” which makes her almost Storm height. Never noticed she was that tall.
