Been a while since I’ve done one of these Lego sketches; you can blame last week’s search term post for the inspiration.

Black Canary Tied Up By Sportsmaster
There: it’s the title of the post. Happy now?
What am I talking about, you may ask? This is a reaction to me glancing at the search terms used by people in the big wide world that bring them to this little corner of the web, in particular, these terms:
There’s a few references to boobs that always crop up ever since I posted this little item back last year, and most of the other phrases aren’t unusual for a comics blog (though “amazon” sounds randomly generic!) but it’s that fourth one down which caught my eye and became the title of this post.

That really is quite specific; not only are people looking for Black Canary, they want her tied up; but not only tied up, but tied up specifically by Sportsmaster.
I performed the same search in Google:
No surprise, then, that this blog is the first text result and also the second image result, all because of this post from a couple of months ago. The rest of the results were clips from one animated Batman show or another before getting into the realms of fan-fiction, about which I will take the advice of Earth-2’s Jimmy Olsen.
Fan fiction about Black Canary being tied up? Not for me, thanks.

The Man With The Comet Head
Looking for something to read this week? Let’s see what DC’s Direct Currents coming soon box could suggest, shall we?
The Man with The Comet Head from Strange Adventures #200?
I . . . I really just have no idea what the hell that’s all about.
At the very least, you have to applaud their straightforward honesty. They call a story “The Man with The Comet Head” and damn me if they don’t deliver exactly that.

Power Girl Redesign
Remember when the New 52 launched and they redesigned most characters’ costumes? Power Girl had a makeover in promotion art for Worlds’ Finest:
and I think it’s fair to say the reaction to that was overwhelmingly negative, so much so that by the time #1 of Worlds’ Finest actually hit the stands, the redesign had received a redesign:
Neither look was brilliant and it wasn’t long before she was back in her classic costume, boob-window and all:
But think how much worse things could have been . . .
Back in 1997, in issue #2 of JLA, the back page had a handful of sketches and character designs and, tucked away among them was this little item (I’ve cropped and moved it for a better display):
I think Power Girl is the one on the left, but even the editor wasn’t sure.
I don’t know about you, but I’d take either of the New 52 designs over the ones from 1997.
