Thanks to Sean Renaud for his entertaining other-worldly stories, and to Throbbs for his memorable drawing of Thor. These are the sources of inspiration that I leaned upon to come up with this:

"I'm not Jessica Rabbit, but like her, I've been drawn in such a way as to give me a bad reputation even before people get to know me! It is patently unfair, but since I'm being drawn by a horny 22-year old I guess that I'm stuck with a slamming body that he wants to keep for himself, and superpowers. To tell you the truth, I don't mind the superpowers; being able to channel all the Greek gods, the heroes and the elements to help me lay waste to the evil-doers who litter my path as I roam the universe through time, is pretty cool. I wouldn't give that up for anything; but having permanently protruding nipples and only wearing a leather bra so that I have a bare midriff, cut-offs that leave my ass half exposed all the time, and thigh-high boots even in snowy Scandinavian Earth-weather is a not what it's cracked up to be. Worse, in the two years that Jake has been drawing me I haven't been laid even once! He likes to bring me close to the edge in his stories, and even closer to the edge in his studio, but I suppose that I reflect the fact that nothing is going on for him either. Well, I am SICK of it!
"My backstory says that I'm supposed to be a 2,300-year old woman. I'm supposed to have been a priestess who was corrupted against my will. Mount Olympus wept with me as I was sent into exile, rather than stoned because of my goodness, grace and skill. I was supposedly transformed by Athena who was most disturbed by the lack of justice that I received.
"To be sure, I'm glad that I wasn't stoned, because I still look like a 22-year old myself after all these years. Back in the old days, being 22 was considered old enough to be wise, but now, I'm still looking forward to the prime of my life; and being immortal I don't have to be as careful as other girls while getting there. Look, I said that my reputation was bad, not that I was good. I see no point in taking a bad rap again, and not deserving it this time.
Anyway, Jake has also been generous in making me rich, and a college student by day, even though I do all these marvellous things by night with no apparent loss of time to do my normal activities. It's a sweet deal, so don't get me wrong, he's a Jamaican, what does he know of Scandinavia and wealthy female vigilantes? I'm grateful to him for what he has given me so far, I mean I
