And no you mongoloid, you keep ignoring the very, very obvious anatomical flaws with that drawing because Artemis showing off her crotch makes your weewee hard. I didn't even mention that Wonder Woman whose chest makes no goddamn sense. It's almost as bad as that pic of Liefeld's Captain America that gets memed around.
And you forget that cartoonish exageration means just that, exaggeration. You bend anatomy, not outright break it. Even Looney Tunes had anatomy because it was exaggerated anatomy. Those cartoonists knew their fundamentals and how things were supposed to look and move in a logical way so they could mess around with it without actually completely ignoring it.
Speaking of guns, Liefeld and his ilk couldn't draw them either. It's one thing to draw a scifi gun and not be totally realistic but they would routinely draw simple boxes or cylinders with a few added bits then call it a day. It has nothing to do with art style, it's just plain laziness.
