Don Monroe shows that female vigilantes can balance both crime fighting and sex appeal in a seemingly effortless manner. One might think that with all the ne'er-do-wells that Wonderwoman has to deal with on a regular basis that her feminine appeal might give way to stress and exhaustion.
Monroe's crime fighters are the source of many comic book readers' fantasies. The illustrations are created in the fashion of vintage pinups with voluptuous female vixens decorating the cover. The balance between comic book fantasy and the erotic female form makes for a series of particularly tantalizing portraits.
With looks such as these, I imagine that thugs would be more than happy to oblige with whatever Wonderwoman or Super Girl has to say, making for an effective and non-violent way to fight crime.
