Horror films have been placing ravishing women in close proximity with hideous monsters for over one hundred years, and Serge Birault seems Hell-bent on preserving their perilous plight for time immemorial. Thankfully, his stylish renditions of devilishly distressed damsels are at once respectful of their ancient roots, and subversively modern as well.

With lovingly-distressed proportions and a knowing wink, Mr. Birault’s clever twists on classic horror and pulp themes consistently create playful pinups and portraits that drip with wit and charm. Tentacles must hold a special, clammy place in his heart, but rancid fly-men and lecherous were-squirrels also torment the lovely ladies he paints.

Mixed in with his warm appreciation of these subjects is a thin thread of macabre insanity. yet, while death and danger are never far, they are easily overshadowed by deceptively capable and unbelievably beautiful women that populate Serge’s illustrated fantasies.

Amanda Gannon’s recent article Sucker Love: Celebrating the naughty tentacle has caused us to reevaluate our conspicuous silence regarding one of Johnathan Darkly’s recent creations: an eerie movie innocently titled Rendezvous.

Sumi and Navi — Jon’s busty space ninja and slender alien beauty — have graced his site for years, but the complex, looping animation of their first zero gravity kiss is something previously unseen. As they tumble in each other’s arms, you can certainly appreciate the craftsmanship of the figures from nearly every angle.

Let’s hope Mr. Darkly can keep up this relatively frenzied pace of artistic innovation, and that we aren’t left waiting for most of a year for his next curious creation.

With their superfit bodies and supertight costumes, there should be no doubting the sexual foundation of superheroism. This libidinous legacy is joyously celebrated by the exceptionally talented Adam Warren in his latest genre-straddling efforts collectively titled Empowered.

Mr. Warren’s latest comic series is a richly developed alternate reality riddled with costumed crimefighters, vengeful vigilantes and vile supervillains. Empowered is an awkwardly named junior member of the SuperHomies — and is constantly mocked for her uncanny knack of being captured, bound and humiliated by a seemingly endless parade of low-rent baddies.

Helping her confront her body issues and continual embarrassments — in spite of a long list of unconventional victories — are her boyfriend and former evil minion and Thugboy, a New Jersey shinobi princess Ninjette, and a coffee-table-bound interdimensional being seething with impotent rage, lust and helpful advice.

Each of the five trade paperbacks currently in print contain a wide assortment of zany, bloody, sexy and heroic exploits of Emp and her post-human and otherworldly associates. Don’t miss any of them!

For as long as we’ve know the fellow, Johnathan Darkly has been living a double life. He’s featured lightly clothed and nearly nude figures on one website, and inadequately clothed and brazenly nude figures on another. Dubbed the ‘lite side’ and the ‘dark side’ respectively, these two destinations have finally been fused into one comprehensive collection of three-dimensional fantasy females: luminous shadows.

This expanded “gray” site is also 100% stereographic, meaning every piece can be viewed in a variety of free-view 3D formats. This is sort of like a mashup of a View-Master toy with those horrible “Magic Eye” posters. Other, more unusual viewing options are also available, but still take a little getting used to. If enough people complain about Mr. Darkly’s default “jigglestereo” option, maybe he’ll change it.

Eyeball acrobatics aside, the view itself is certainly strange and lovely.

Every fantasy artist finds their way away from the mundane world in their own manner, but all available evidence points to a love of — and fascination with Mother Ocean as the spark that turned Schin Loong to a universe of the unreal. While brightly colored fish and undulating jellies serve as backdrop in several of her pieces, don’t be surprised to find her young women featuring a tentacle or two of their own.

In spite of the ever-present fantastic elements in Schin’s captivating portraits, mortality seems a constant companion, patiently waiting in the darkest corners. We find glamorous monsters venturing forth, as well as innocent girls haunted by alien visions of unattainable beauty.

To be clear, the majority of women in Ms. Loong’s portraits are not sea creatures, nor are they even overly wet.  Like the deep blue ocean, however, they conceal their darkest secrets with layers upon layers of beauty and danger. These enchanted creatures at once alluring and frightening. In the end, the allure will certainly prevail.

There are as many reasons to become an artist, as there are artists themselves. Some work for money, others for fame… but some pursue their craft in response to the siren song of beauty itself. Surely Olmirad Sorjonen is one of these who hear the sweet melody of the female form, and must follow.

While much of his journey involves shapely young women in the teeniest of bikinis, Olli has a demonstrable desire for far-flung planetary bodies and scifi warrior women as well. His realistic ladies seem equally at ease in any setting, no matter how alien. Fortunately for us, Mr. Sorjonen’s skills are more than capable of revealing their beauty, regardless of their locale.

As society creeps and lurches into the future, our understanding of the wonders and horrors to come adapts and changes. A wise man once said “The future isn’t what it used to be,” but The creative team of Embrio and Jaysin — founding members of DPI Studios — might just prove Mr. Berra wrong with their retro future world of chrome, mohawks and sexy anime warriors.

Embrio’s gift for drawing wasp-waisted beauties with a Mad Max flair for fashion, and Jaysin’s vibrant colors and silky-smooth tones creatively combine to paint a post-Apocalyptic paradise of sassy, sinuous cyberpunks and supernaturally shapely sorceresses.

However horrific the future may be, take comfort in the knowledge that the harbingers of our doom will have bountiful breasts, impossible abs and lusciously long legs. What a way to go!

As recently illustrated by AMC’s Sci Fi Scanner, there is a long and noble tradition of science fiction’s exhaustive exploration of sex in space. ABC’s new drama Defying Gravity, however, expands on this time-honored titillation in surprising detail, considering its a network-broadcast series.

The first few episodes have featured a recurring dream wherein Zoe — one of the many attractive women in the show — can be seen floating naked and smiling out an airlock. A carefully-framed session of zero-g consolation sex is a touching sendoff when a husband must leave the mission. There is all manner of traditional hanky-panky among the crew, including amateur hour at the local strip joint, but these Earth-bound exploits must pale in comparison to the weightless workouts to come.

The science is sound enough to satisfy the casual science fiction fan, but viewers will no doubt be more intent on observing the future floating frolic of these ardently amorous astronauts. If you have any qualms about the crew’s unprofessional undulations, be certain that when all is said and done, the unseen alien influence will ultimately take the blame.
