I'm a writer. I read a lot of comics. My friend Jojo is an artist. She doesn't read any comics.

At lunch, she draws super heroes from memory. Her memory is not always very good.

As you look at these drawings, I can not stress enough that Jojo is a professional artist, and a full grown woman. It's important to remember that.

Today Jojo draws The Wasp! I’ve been having Jojo draw Avengers who were not in the movie. As a founding Avenger, Wasp is the number one character I’d like to see in Avengers 2. Of course Wasp has always gotten the short end of the super hero stick. She’s referred to as a founding Avenger now, but back in the 60s she didn’t get top billing on the cover and was only an honorary member, as Ant-Man’s sidekick. Plus, her blasts she shoots from her hands never do anything. I swear, every Wasp fight is her shooting someone with her blasts, it having no effect, and her saying, “Impossible! I’m hitting him with enough force to flatten a barn and it’s not even messing up his hair!” You know what would make that a lot more convincing? If we ever ONCE saw Wasp flatten a barn!!!!! But I digress. Jojo’s take on the character is largely consistent with how she’s looked. She even got her 60s hair. She gave her a literal wasp body, which actually just gives her the weird broken spine women have in bad comic art. I also like her “Wasp Stinger Harpoon” and feisty expression. Wasp doesn’t have a single iconic costume, so they should just have her look like this in the movie.
