He's a lot shorter than they were, and bears a certain vague resemblance to the Inferno-era X-Factor villain Orphan Maker.

The woman on the right's right leg is painful to look at.

Now that I think of it, the other woman's leg is a bit janky, too.

It's funny the things that you can wave aside as just a result of the art style, but something like this just makes a muscle in back of my neck hurt.

I mean, look at Cabbot's ball-squeezing codpiece. And Deathlock's legs.

It's almost like Rob is not very good at art.

Given Shogun's name, the V-thing in this case is probably meant to be evoking those horned/crescent decorations on old Japanese helmets that samurai wore..or it's just Rob being lazy again. Either or.

-Yes, Rob literally just ripped off his silly Forearm character from the Mutant Liberation Front for the even MORE goofily-named "Fourplay", who is just a four-armed woman in a cleavage-baring outfit. In one Brigade appearance, she wears a full facemask and slugs it out with Kayo, eventually defeating the guy she calls a "Chinaman". She presumably died along with the rest of her team. A later Bloodstrike issue introduced a density-controlling woman who was killed by domestic abuse.

-Fourplay is apparently super-strong, but her fight against Kayo (who is a standard "Peak Human" guy), she doesn't appear to be so- they just kind of punch and kick each other for a while until she wins.

-Man, what the hell is going on with this character? Generic "super-people clothes", the token Wild Liefeldian Hair (GOD he loves perms- how can someone who hates drawing detail so much he casts everything in shadow and plainifies every costume also be addicted to giving every mega-perms with thousands of hair-tendrils everywhere?), and then... weird triangular glass lenses over her eyes? What are THOSE about? I know Rob loves adding Eyepatches to everyone (Domino, Wildside, Shatterstar, Cabbot, etc.), but huh? What are those supposed to be? Why not just have her wear GLASSES?

-In any case, literally the only thing I know about Tag is that she can make people "Freeze in place" with her power, hence "Tag". Not a bad Affliction to use, but boy- she really sucks.

It's possible that, as with the string of Shaft's bow, he just didn't bother to draw anything connecting the lenses.

Or it's spirit gum, which is supposedly what's used for all the domino masks in comics.

It looks like Tag has four boobs. Either that, or she needs some counseling for anorexia.

Huh. Actual body armor makes some sense. But the over-all design is rather off-putting.

I agree. It's more likely a horribly deformed rib cage than armor under spandex

Shouldn't Foreplay be the one with the fore-boobs? ;)
