Check out the big pin-up panel on page 2. Tiger Girl's right upper arm has disappeared! The right forearm is in the proper position to be washing her left shoulder, but nothing connects it to her body. In fact her right shoulder is drawn as if her arm were hanging at her side.
Since Matt Baker knew perfectly well how to draw arms, the right upper arm must have been pasted over by editorial decree. But why? The only reason I could think of was would be to conceal excess bare breast. However her forearm and hand already cover the interesting bits and besides, Fiction House seldom worried about excess flesh. Anyone have an opinion?
