The clock has been certainly ticking until the day of my 28th birthday, and I thought it would be great to compile another fan art collage. This time, it involves one of my other favorite specialities, musclemen flexing and flaunting their magnificently powerful muscles for all to see, some BroTPs consisting of well-built gentlemen flexing their muscles for their darlings, a couple of muscleman OTP couples, and OTPs consisting of well-muscled gentlemen pairing up nicely with their well-toned wives.
I am intrepid enough to admit that I have always loved seeing musclemen complete with chiseled faces, super strength, and handsome countenances either clean-shaven or rugged be they animated or real life. Ever since I was a child up until my teens, I have been inspired by the likes of Akira Toriyama, Burne Hogarth, Jim Jimenez, Gilbert Monsanto, and many other comic, manga, and animation artists who specialize in drawing men with nicely shaped muscles. Ergo, I am a huge, huge fan of musclemen both the burly types and the lean types.
I also grew up with a lot of men with muscles starting with a lot of my favorite Western animation shows and Disney animated films and had huge crushes on them. The ones who come into my mind and take my fancy are the jungle musclemen specifically George of the Jungle, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli who I managed to combine them as brothers in my jungle headcanon, as they are also Chief Keewazi’s sons and even have Grunch the Caveman and Hercules as their best flexing buddies and muscle friends for life. On top of that, I even went out of my way to ship Basuli and Tarzan with Namontack and Kocoum because I really loved the appeal of these two jungle warrior brothers falling in love with two Powhatan warrior brothers and giving them a whole lot of loving. As for George and Maugli, I would mainly ship them with Badur and Leif the Okeechobee vikings respectively.
Going to Conan x Zula and Arkon x Ka-Zar, it is the classic case of I ship these two because I can. I really enjoy the opposite personalities these two have and not just because of the fact that they are imposing, handsome, powerful gentlemen with a whole lot of muscle.
When it comes to anime, I always saw Inuyasha and Ayame as the ultimate power couple because of how beautifully Inuyasha’s muscles, super strength, and beastly athletic prowess and Ayame’s speed, agility, and determination can mesh. This brand of brawn, beastliness, and athleticism have even been passed down to their most beloved children Masataka, Masaya, Motomu, Dai, Roku, Kenta, Keita, Kazuhiko, Kaito, Momoko, Makoto, Mikoto, Maya, and Minako to the point where Inuyasha’s most favorite sons Masataka, Masaya, Motomu, Dai, Roku and even the second eldest muscle twins Kenta and Keita would have a lot of bodybuilding posedowns, wrestling matches, and roaring contests with their dear old dad and Kazuhiko, Kaito, Momoko, Makoto, Mikoto, Maya, and Minako would have marathon runs with their mother. Other power couples I enjoy in Inuyasha are Sesshoumaru and Kagura who are of the noble, sexy, stealthy kind, Hakkaku and Karan who are of the motivated, determined, and enthusiastic kind, and Ginta and Shunran who are of the energetic, fun-loving, speedy kind.
Outside of Inuyasha, I can never ever go wrong with my crossover anime OTPs Baki x Rosé, Ichiro x Rose, Kiibo x Winry, Ippo x Maya, and Kintaro x Solty because I just love the thought of pairing up muscular, well-built, iron-bodied, virile combatants who can give Samson, Heracles, and Theseus a run for their money with energetic, sexy, athletic, spirited Amazons who have the beauty of an Aphrodite and the resilience of an Athena and an Artemis.
We now head to the City of Townsville where eight amazing power couples reside. Mr. Green x Mrs. Sara Bellum-Green, Professor Utonium x Mrs. Keane-Utonium, Brick x Buttercup, Butch x Bubbles, Boomer x Blossom, Mitch x Bunny, Harry x Julie, and Mike x Robin are the power couples Townsville needs in order to keep their city fit and healthy while fighting off evil with all of their strength, might, and power.
Growing up on comic books with muscular superheroes, I decided to go that route with Mr. Green, Professor Utonium, Brick, Butch, Boomer, Mitch, Harry, and Mike to show that these gentlemen have bodies most men would die for and ensure their wives that they have them covered every single step of the way. Sure, Brick, Butch, Boomer, Mitch, Harry, and Mike as adults look amazing for their ages, especially that they are going to reach the age of 30 in the span of either three or five months, but the mere fact that Mr. Green and Professor Utonium still look muscular, handsome, and virile although they are in their mid-to-late 50s is absolutely astounding thanks to their workout regimens and living on really good diets which build muscle and give them all of the endurance, strength, and resilience they need to beat up criminals.
That same power wife treatment is given to Mrs. Bellum-Green, Mrs. Keane-Utonium, Buttercup, Bubbles, Blossom, Bunny, Julie, and Robin, as they prove themselves to not only admire their husbands’ amazing physiques but also prove themselves to be powerful and beautiful women. It is often said that behind every big, strong, muscular man is a gorgeous, curvy, fierce woman, and these ladies have defined that quote with great gusto. While Buttercup, Bubbles, Blossom, Bunny, Julie, and Robin are approaching the age of 28 and still look amazing even after having a whopping total of twenty-four children, Mrs. Bellum-Green and Mrs. Keane-Utonium continue to look stunning, strong, and captivating even into their 50s.
To conclude, I want to thank NadoArts, Teracles, EthanTK, Juacamo, Makoto-nii-chan, Jose-Ramiro, AsmodisArt, Musclelicker, Suyohara, RaccoonFoot, zephleit, mystery79, WildWolfHipster, kyouu-chan, reiner55, Deerxboi, korak225, YANN-X, SummerShe-Wolf, 09tuf, Luipunker91, TyrannoNinja, PookieArt, selma11, Jimma1300, CaseyLJones, Ares-the-war-god, and roemesquita for putting that drive, determination, and stamina in me to revel in the male muscular anatomy and find a whole lot of pleasure in drawing muscular men, especially the likes of George of the Jungle, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli. You all rock in your own awesome ways and here’s to a lot more love, joy, and more muscular men in this year.
