Transmetal 2 Blackarachnia kicks ass!!!
Just had to get that out of my system.
The only thing I don't like about that series was that she had that form for too short a period of time. A half-dozen episodes then they wrap up the series.
I remember checking out the Mainframe.com site where they discussed where Blackarachnia got her look. It's really funny. Apparently they needed a femme fatale for the bad guys' side, who had this "redeemable" streak in her (which they eventually exploit with Silverbolt, her manic-depressive lover). So they took the lead artist out on a bender to a strip club.
Apparently one of the girls there was this slinky Asian dominatrix who made such an impression on him that Blackarachnia was drawn with *her* in mind. So if she seems a little over the top sometimes, there's a reason.
