Does anyone else hate her new look? The short hair and combat boots just really does not do it for me. I know it's not all that new as far as this series goes but in comparing it with her past costumes it's such a let down.

Sure the longer hair look was "sexier" but not really practical, especially for a thief. What about leaving hair strands behind with DNA and all that stuff. Okay, she's sort of reformed now. With the shorter hair, someone can't grab her hair from behind. So I liked the longer look better but see the practicality of the shorter look.

I haven't been keeping up with Catwoman. Does she still remember Batman is Bruce Wayne? I saw that she's in his Outsiders now.

As for the hair, yes, it was too long but now it's at the other extreme of being too short. They've taken an ultra feminine character and made her ultra masculine. There needs to be a happy medium.

Yes she still knows about Bruce from wait i can remember. He helped her fake her and helena's death

And now Batman, or I should say Bruce, is out trotting around with that celebrity chick. There was also Talia reminding him of their past. Man, the dude has women everywhere. Doesn't seem that long ago that they tried hooking him and Wonder Woman up in JLA.

It's pretty much a carbon copy except for the neck area and ears. I wasnt a big fan of that costume either...

Bats and Wonderwoman does look cool, then again there's the Smallville idiots tying him and Chloe Sullivan. Now don't start do another 20 posts with the Chloe thing, I'm trying to forget the show for now. Just talk about Bats and Wonderwoman or Catwoman's new look.

While I agree with Hex that the long hair looked better, the new costume is way better than the last one

the "look" of the purple one was better, albeit unrealistic

I miss the purple cowl, though the old hair was a problem for her so I get why she'd ditch it but now it's too short for such a sexy character. She really doesn't even seem like the same character, really... I like the new outfit, but not for the Catwoman I fell in love with all those years ago. God I suddenly feel very old... sigh

I agree with you completely. There really isnt anything sexy about the new look. Practical? yes, but not sexy. Even her attitude has changed.

just starting to read the catwoman now - both the 90s and current version. i like her old look and attitude better but the short hair is starting to grow on me. In some of the covers she looks like Audrey Hepburn, in others, like Demi Moore in Ghost. I don't think her current costume does her justice -- those goggles and boots are so ugly. i hope they get rid of it with the reboot.

i'm also not sure i like where they're taking her character. she seems much more angst filled now compared to the 90's version. i hope they lighten her up a bit.

I Like the old look. I think the new look is very sexy but I miss her long beautiful hair.

I'm not too crazy about the goggled look. In fact, I hate it. My personal favorites are the Michelle Pfeiffer costume:
   and the 90's cartoon costume:

I think that catwoman is one of the sexiest comic book females of all time. but some of the outfits she has worn have always been off somewhat. I think there is some fan art on this site that does her better justice indeed!

I like it too :P

So much so in fact that when I RPG I envision my character dressed like her. I mean c'mon, who doesn't love goggles and combat boots? If you can make combat boots look sexy then, well, you must be pretty damn hot.

I like her better during the Jim Balent era, when she was wearing the purple costume with black curly hair.







Her newer look is just so dull.

Those were her much, much better days. I also liked her 90s costume, and sure, her new hair won't get in the way but it takes all the femininity out of her. Sure, go ahead stuff the hair in her mask but don't shorten it to such an extent. She's no dike.
