I was watching PREDATOR last night. In one scene, the alien hunter grabs Arnold by the neck and lifts him from the ground, feet dangling.

Should I send the production company a bill?

Interesting thread. I've always thought that JB was one of the comic creators who is the most respectful of women characters in comics. Just look at his mature handling of the Invisible Woman in comparison with they way most others have handled her, and its clear that he's not out to degrade and demean them.

Ha, yes, then you forward that doe to George Lucas who, I'm sure, got it from somebody else. I wouldn't doubt that someone like Kirby did this first.
