Enter the Empress of social-media wise modelling...

5-ft-and-5-in tall model. 39DDD-28-45.

She deserve her own thread here:

A Greek-Bulgarian born Australian who keep to turn thicker than the Turkish-European border over years...

American film & television director, filmmaker, proeucer and showrunner Patricia Lea "Patty" Jenkins (Monster, Arrested Development, Entourage, Wonder Woman, WW84) .

Running a glamorous career as internationally famous supermodel in worktime while beating supervillains during her free days, the crime-fighting vigileant and adventurer Big Bertha is a member from the Milwaukee-based superhero would-be GLA team or Great Lakes Avengers (or GLX. Or Great Lake Champions, whatever) , a unofficial subdivision from the more popular title franchise team of superheroes by Marvel Comics. The inspiration behind the character's names came respectivelly from the dreadful WWI-era German heavy field cannon Big Bertha, then from the model and television personality Cindy Crawford. Born a mutant at Marshfield (Wisconsin) , this living example of the proverbial "big fish inside a little pond" due to her social background - and yoyo-ing body type - possess the genetic ability to alter her body size and mass, more especially her overall fat tissue, via amysterious bond between her some sort of interdimensionnal energy : thus capable to shapeshift herself from the very tall 6 feet 1, trim and svelte (should I say, relativelly starved??) 120-pounds tycoon straddling up with fame through the modelling industry world, to a nigh-Brobdingnangianly HUGE behemoth wobbling back-and-forth at 750 most plausibly 2000 pounds! (Big Bertha's public identity as the internationally famous Ashley Crawford. Unlikely most of classical superheroes - besides Iron Man in somehow, or the DC-universe legendary Superman and Wonder Woman - her slim, depowered form is factually her transformed form, while her super form as an inhumanly super-sized woman is meanwhile her true appearance, concealed literally beneath her more "socially fit" physique like a cover-up in order to hide the fact she is a mutant and moreover a giant, "grossly obese" blob in a society prone for its harsh prejudices against both fat & X-gene carrying peoples.) (Now below, Big Bertha unleashing her "super" form. No room is empty with her inside...) The trigger that the nicknamed "Ample Amazon" use to switch on-and-off from one form to an another is - ironically from a Fat Admirer viewpoint - stuff herself with a large quantity of food in order to turn obese, before to degurgite all by instilling herself to vomit. Her powers allow her to manipulate her adipode tissue, thus controlling her own figure though the origin of her additionnal hundred thousands of "super-bulk" pounds is still unkwown, possibly from extra-dimensional source. (She's shorta bulimic, technically) . What is known about, however, is that once transformed, Big Bertha is practically the ungreen-skinned and far lesser stronger counterpart to She-Hulk and The Blob together, granted by superhuman both durability, strength and leaping all combined. (When you are so fat you're getting bulletproof) The reason behind why she prefer adopt a slender silhouette is certainly because of her both mutant-issue and image-troubled fears about oneself then the rest of the society, frightened at the idea to be rejected and alienated by most everyone because of her outside appearance. Or to be fetishized by what she disdainfully call "chubby chasers" - e.g. EVERY. DAMN. SINGLE. OF US, GUYS!! : (The [in]famous Deadpool dating Ashley Crawford... not because #RealCanucksLovesCurves - doesn't it, Wolvie?? - but because of Deadpool's frightful pansexuality: Wade's D-word tingles in presence of alien humanoid hippos, aeons-old ungodly walking skulls on rags embodying the very multiversal aspect of Death itself, his own buxomly genderswapped doppelganger from alternate reality, even and more especially for wall-crawling teenage boys in red-and-blue tightsuits swooping their arses from building to building...) (When you know that their affair started after this, just below:) This is important to say that for the common of in-universe mortals, Mutant is [reportedly] the New Black then Fat The New Devil: Less subject to the general bodyshaming-prone doucheness of Marvel Comics about overweight people since the Silver Age of comic books (especially via The Blob then two episodic eating binges crisis with signifiant body weight issues for the female mutant Blink twice...) , Big Bertha incarnate the very beauty of humankind, being as warmhearted and mellow from the inside as alluring from the outside, whatever how many yards her fluctuate girth size burst in-and-out. Alongside the fan-acclaimed Squirrel Girl, she is probbaly one of the two most loved GLA female protagonists by the geek fandom and the most pure-hearted too. Since 2016, the character undergoes a noteworthy updating, now a converted Plus-Size model who has less social-troubled about her size and legalled now as Bertha Crawford. During a short arc story, she was lured by Doctor Nod, a mad scientist seeking to use her mutant powers to its own ends by convincing her to pose for a weight loss ad while in reality aspire to collect her genetic material in order to promote his own Perfect Body Worship trademark for people with weight issues. The reader is free to speculate about if the nemesis-of-the-week's name himself wasn't himself a litteral nod to everything to whom Big Bertha represents, including the tribute to those many former mainstream supermodels reconverted themselves courageously into the Plus Size modelling as beacons of the more-and-more trademark mainstream Plus Size social aesthetics, or about the WG-genre literacy-innuado behind this story about bioegineering-made weight pills capable to turn its user into giant fat blobs as by magic... (Somebody in Marvel Comics is DEFINITIVELY a Deviantart or DimensionsMagazine-whatever fanboy) And you, who is your favorite??
