Electra Woman and Dyna Girl and OMIGOD IS THAT MARKIE POST?!

So it’s been a while since I’ve contributed anything of value to the site. In my defense, I was trapped under something heavy and had to gnaw off a foot to escape. Fortunately, it wasn’t one of my feet. Long story, but now I’m here and and Spam will never taste the same again.

Anyway, if you’re anything like me, you are a child of the seventies and watched the Krofft Superstar Hour.  If you’re a whole lot like me, you had vaguely inappropriate thoughts about two characters on that show – Electra Woman and Dyna Girl. They were your standard 70’s-issue crime fighting duo. But did you know that there was an attempt to resurrect those characters in 2001? Well, you do now. The WB (back when there was such a thing) ordered a pilot of Electra Woman and Dyna Girl starring none other than TV’s Markie Post. Yep, Christine from Night Court played Electra Woman as hard drinking, easy skanking, and washed-up living in a trailer park. She’s brought out of retirement by a hero-worshiping college student who eventually takes on the role of the new Dyna Girl.

Now, if Crisis on Infinite Midlives stands for anything, it’s for beer and sideboob. But if we stood for three things, that third thing would be the weird ass flotsam and jetsam of comics culture. And I warn you, it gets pretty weird up in here. With that, I give you Electra Woman and Dyna Girl – the lost and unaired pilot.

Check it out, after the jump.
