cover of heavy metal vol. 18 no. 1 showing a white woman with curly dark blonde hair in a shredded shirt with bronze cloth strips going vertical down her breasts to cover her nippls, she is in a thong and holding a gun in a boobs and butt pose while standing thigh deep in water

Courageous Lingerie Saleswoman

Bikini armor boobs and butt pose aside, this is such a strange position.  If she were just looking behind while making sure her gun was pointed forward in case of enemies, she'd be turning her head while not moving her torso so much.  If she were turning her torso to face possible danger behind her, not only would she likely be moving the gun too, but also the more natural and defensively sound way to turn would be in the opposite direction because that would allow her to look back without twisting her body.  It would also allow her to point her gun behind if necessary given her arm positioning.  As it stands, if there was something behind her, she'd have an awkward time trying to get her gun around to aim at it.

But yes, I know, that's not the point of the cover.  The point is she's a lingerie saleswoman modeling the latest in jellyfish undergarments while wielding an automatic pricing gun to make her job easier and wishing that corporate would fix her store's horribly leaky roof already.

Anyway I've been modeling this position irl in the process of making this post and now my back hurts.
