There seems to be a consensus on the trope's discussion page that the current image (of Black Widow from a scene in Iron Man 2) is inaccurate. Anyone like this better?

Visually, the two are very similar, enough that I'd consider it a lateral change. I'd prefer something that looks unequivocally like the character just landed...the suggestion is a bit lacking in that.

If Iron Man is an example and Black Widow isn't, I'd say we go for Iron Man.

Alternatively, this Supergirl cover from the examples:

Trope says it doesn't have to be a landing. Why is everyone hung up on a detail that isn't required by the trope?

^ Because of the misleading trope title?

Aside from the potential of an image change, anyone else in favor of merging the page quote and caption, or just cutting one of them since they're kinda redundant? I already nixed the stinger for being a dupe of the caption.

Hmm, she "landed" already so the quote isn't quite right. I would cut the caption instead.

Not sure which is best, but it's redundant to have it in two places.

I'd say cut the caption (Or shrink it to just "It's really hard on your knees") and call it a day.

I started a crowner, but I wanted to throw a couple more options out before doing that: some combination of panels 2, 3, 5, and 6 from here, and the last panel here, possibly cropping Sandra out.

EDIT: Hit the snooze.

13.1 is a contender. 13.2 has too much overlap with Ground-Shattering Landing.

I prefer 13.1.

I've gone ahead and hooked the crowner I started earlier. I've made 13.1 into a 4-panel collage.

Well, for what it's worth, the crowner's spoken. I'll tag the page and add some of the options to the Image Links page; locking up.
