Line 42:
* Parodied, along with most of the [[The Dark Age of Comic Books]], in [[Grant Morrison]]'s one-shot [[Doom Patrol|Doom Force]]. The villainess first shows up dressed fairly sexily, which her brother finds disgusting - because she's wearing too much clothing. She obligingly switches to exotic lingerie. The brother, meanwhile, later shows up in a speedo and pasties.
* In DC's ''[[Young Justice (comics)|Young Justice]]'', Arrowette fears she's turned evil. "I'll have to get a tight, skimpy black leather outfit that shows off my cleavage. Oh god. I'll have to get cleavage."
* The [[Unfortunate Implications]] of this trope are lampshaded in an issue of ''[[Avengers Academy]]'' where the Avengers confronyconfront Cyclops' post-''Schism'' X-Men team. Hawkeye (IIRC) says of Emma Frost, "I knew someone who dresses like that couldn't stay a good guy!", to which Tigra responds, "What does that make me? Doctor Doom?"
* The comparison shows up when a DC or Marvel good gal gets brainwashed or possessed or simply chooses to be bad.
* From the ''[[Fantastic Four]]'': Sue Storm is usually has far more modesty than your typical [[Ms. Fanservice]] heroine, but during the 90s, there was a brief time where she wore a slutty outfit with a thong and [[Cleavage Window]]. It was eventually revealed <ref>Possibly an excuse made via [[Retcon]], seeing as most fans hated it.</ref> that the change in outfit was influenced by her long-assumed-gone dark side, Malice.
