Personally, I think it's pretty good. It's mostly true to form and it won't piss people off.
Superman
Character » Superman appears in 18886 issues.
Sent to Earth as an infant from the dying planet Krypton, Kal-El was adopted by the loving Kent family and raised in America's heartland as Clark Kent. Using his immense solar-fueled powers, he became Superman to defend mankind against all manner of threats while championing truth, justice, and the American way!
Supergirl Costume Revealed!
It doesn't look bad. It doesn't change my feelings about the new Supergirl show, that is to say, I still don't care about it at all. But the costume doesn't look bad.
Incidentally, is she wearing pantyhose? Because it kinda looks like she is. And if so, those should not last an episode.
@superguy1591: Same designer for Flash and Arrow so yeah
@jj_was_here: This should be posted in the Supergirl forums, not the Superman forums
One of these costumes is not like the rest. Did Supergirl become a nun or something? Not complaining, just pointing it out. I mean, she's even wearing stockings. It looks like they purposely tried to cover up as much skin as possible. I wonder if it has to do with feminists complaining about "over sexualizing" superheroes? But Supergirl's costume isn't even really sexualized, well, maybe the new 52 version is a little. Or maybe I'm just over analyzing the costume. But, still, the stockings look weird to me.
But Supergirl is one of my favorite characters, and I am looking forward to this new series.
funny...i would just laugh if i saw a girl dressed like this, even if i was in a bad situation and was saved by her..it could be more grounded
Hmmph, my first thought was that this actress lacks some of classic beauty that Helen Slater and Laura Vandervoort have. Then again, when this casting was announced, most comicviners reacted positively about her acting talent, so everything good on this front.
Costume itself – well, its looks ok I guess. Not sure how it will look in action scene. Guess we will see. Pantyhose though – they looks out of place.
P.S. Why this topic in Superman’ boards? It would be more prudent to post it in Supergirl’s own forum or maybe even general discussion.
@captainmarvel4ever: I DO WHAT I WANT!
@superadam: I don't think her New 52 one is overly sexualized, however the red crotch is a bit weird to me, still to this day. I would recommend the title to most Supergirl fans though, it's been constantly good since New and more people need to read it
She's super gorgeous, that's absolutely the right shade of blonde but the hairdo is a little too flawless for a superhero, she actually resembles Serena from Gossip Girl in this photo. I love everything from the belt down but I'm not sure how I feel about the belt itself, it looks a mite costumey. Overall she looks pretty stylish.
