Formerly warrior Princess Koriand'r of the now-destroyed planet Tamaran, Starfire found a new home on Earth and a new family in the Teen Titans. She was once romantically involved with Dick Grayson, and often dealt with hostilities from her older sister Blackfire. Starfire has also served with many other teams such as the Outsiders, Justice League, R.E.B.E.L.S. and Jason Todd's Outlaws.
Top Cow art on DC's alien fan-service queen... *yawn*
Yeup.
I wouldn't mind the fan-service quality of the character if they didn't resort to the chainmail bikini. There are other ways to be sexy than stuffing her into an impossible swimsuit and calling it traditional warrior's garb.
Okay, I think I got it from context, but because I'm always on the lookout for a new term, would someone please define "fan-service" for me? An old guy would appreciate it. :)
I still like it. It looks like Starfire without needing to tell me it is, and iconic. Were her costume not stringy in the first place I might see it, but it just looks like a variant of her costume. the ass shot is a bit fanwanked though, but if it's making someone out there smile more power to that? Art reminds me of Top Cow, very sharp stuff and better than the cover.
Here's a better question, with so little clothes covering her... How does Starfire even protect herself if she was being shot at with a gattling gun or a really wide beam shot ?
"Fan service is a term originating from anime and manga fandom for material in a series which is intentionally added to please the audience. In general, fan service refers to scenes designed to excite or titillate the viewer. This can include scantily-clad outfits, cleavage shots, panty shots, nude scenes (shower scenes especially), etc. Some broader definitions also include things like cool mecha, big explosions, battle scenes, etc. Basically, if it has little plot-redeaming value, but makes the viewer sit up and take notice, it's probably fan service in one form or another."

I could spend all day talking about how fond I am of you and still you wouldn't have more screenshots of me than others have of you talking about how much you miss me. ;D
