Not even She-hulk is immune to breast cancer

She-Hulk promoting breast cancer awareness

None of the obvious jokes please. She-Hulk and several other Marvel & DC superheroines have been enlisted to fight breast cancer in Mozambique according to Africa is a Country:

Nobody’s immune to breast cancer. When we talk about breast cancer, there’s no women or superwomen. Everybody has to do the self-examination monthly. Fight with us against the enemy and, when in doubt, talk with your doctor.

It makes a certain amount of sense to use these comic book icons for this campaign, but I don’t think you’ll see a similar one in America soon. Titillation yes, self examination for breast cancer? Not so much…

    One of the things I hate about most comics is the insane body shapes for the “women”. Crazy stuff. It’s one of the reasons I liked the Sandman comics, actually. Didn’t have to contend with that. I really like online comics, but struggle to continue to find new ones. The comics that I once followed online have all ceased to exist.
