Wait a minute – it’s not Graham Nolan anymore, it’s Paul Ryan. Or somebody. I don’t know – whoever is drawing Rex Morgan these days . . .

After today’s depiction of June in her bikini, it’s clear that Graham Nolan over at Rex Morgan MD does not intend to let anyone have the “draws sexier women than Brooke” title without a real fight.

Judge Parker, Brenda Starr and Apartment 3G also have some pretty women.

I believe one reason there does not seem to be as many strips with beautiful women in them is that a lot of strips seem to have gone to minimal graphics. In fact a lot of the drawing today is just plain bad.

Women sexier than Brooke’s? Open the comics pages and pick a comic at random, and I’d say the women there are at least as sexy.

“But are we saying that they drew the sexiest women then, and hardly anybody draws sexy women now? What’s happened to America?”

As things have supposedly loosened up we’ve gotten rather puritanical. I’m a female, but even I went Va-Va-Voom over some of the females I saw in comics and cartoons when I was a kid.

Al Capp did sexy women too — Wolf Gal was my favorite.

Yeah, I know I mentioned Frank Cho earlier but if I had to vote for “creator of sexiest comic women of all time” my vote would go to Will Eisner. His work is amazing in all areas (not just sexy women).

Brooke draws the sexiest women appearing in newspaper comics today. If you extend the range to other times or other media, though, competition from artists like Milt Caniff, Will Eisner, and Will Elder, to name only a few, makes for a much tougher field.
