Some of those are a bit of a stretch for me. A couple of those (the flying poses in particular it seems) I think have come to be more of a "canon" comic book pose than a swipe. And the Michael Turner one.... come on. That sort of sexy topless pose has been repeated by sooooooo many models, its a cliche. The would be like calling any use of the "arched back, one had behind the head" a swipe of... well... whoever did that first. Who knows any more!

A few of them made me go "Holy trace, Batman!", but they were grasping at straws on others.

That was pretty interesting. Agree with Wassy on some of them, especially the movie poster with the guy between the woman's legs. There's probably hundreds of movie posters like that, as well as the other way around (guy in foreground, usually a horror movie with a phallus-like weapon coming into frame as well)
