Carol Danvers and She-Hulk have the best boobs in comics :D

On what basis are you making a comparison? There are any number of well endowed women portrayed in comics. It's kind'a required you know for a heroine to be at least the high end of a C-cup.

..and of those, I think POWER GIRL has always had the best shaped breast. I remenber her first appearence in ALL STAR SQUADRON all those years ago, and wow..I never forgot..

It also depends on the artist, really. Jim Lee could always be counted on to give us some lovelies to look at, no matter what book it was (Voodoo, any of the X-Ladies). Back in the day, Cockrum could turn out some nice head-turners as well (Phoenix, Storm).

Modern day comic book art, with the assist from computers they have, is almost a cheat. They drew boobies back in the day with no assistance except their hand. One drawing, the other...well...in the case of powergirl, we'll leave it at that!!

Comic artists use computers for COLORING comics, but the figures are still hand drawn. Certainly they were in Cockrum's day (80s), and when Lee was on X-Men (early-mid 90s).
 
Yeah, but I still find Ms. Marvel sexier. She's also smarter too and everyone knows that when you combine brains, boobs and brawn... you got a winnin combo

Shadowcat is supposed to be damn near a genius. And pretty easy on the eyes when the artist allows her to look a little more mature.

Combining brains with boobs is a winning combination?..What do you mean lad, its a fricking MIRACLE!!! Just kidding of course..Riiiighhht.

How old is Kitty Pryde supposed to be? In her initial appearance, and then at the end of Whedon's run?

She was, like, thirteen when she first appeared.

Her age gets kind of vague by the mid-90s; Warren Ellis wrote her in Excalibur as a woman of about 20-ish, in a sexual relationship (which Chris Claremont apparently hated). That was probably a bit of an age-stretch relative to how everyone else has aged, but from then until Whedon that was where she was written.
 
I like both Marvel and DC both companies have their share of characters I like and characters I hate. I used to be a pretty hardcore Marvel fan but recently I've been looking to DC for some more old fashioned superhero stories like what Green Lantern has been with the war of light. I used to be really into Iron Man but lately it's nothing more than politics and angst and that's just no fun for me so I dropped the book.
 
Most of the comics I read tend to be Dark Horse. I'm not really a big fan of superhero comics. But if I had to choose, I like Batman, so DC.

That's about where I'd put her...19 or 20. Old enough to be on her own and in college.
 
Well in some ways I picture her in mid 20s at least - considering the old Alan Davis Excalibur series had her as basically a mature adult. She wasn't a teenager,and hell didn't she screw that Pete Wisdom guy at least once? So honestly I think Kitty Pryde is a case of "let's let her age..."

And I agree, in the hands of the right artist, she can be good lookin'.

Nov. 3 (Bloomberg) -- Marvel Entertainment Inc., the comic book publisher that agreed to be acquired by Walt Disney Co., reported third-quarter profit fell 60 percent on a drop in film revenue and licensing sales.

If I recall correctly, Marvel had already given guidance that this was going to happen; it's because they've had a movie drought with no Marvel backed features coming out this year. Starting next year they've got Iron Man 2 which plays into Thor, Captain America, Avengers, etc.; they'll have a steady stream with no lags like this.
