    hmm... so do I. Give the woman back her TOP HAT. Far more idiosyncratic than a cape or fishnets... that's the Canary's shtick

    @akindoodle: She's had Fishnets for a long time, and I like them on her, but yeah, Top Hat/Tuxedo combo was by far superior.

    Personally I like Kris Anka's redesign

    @backflip: I know but I've always found the Top Hat more aesthetically pleasing and frankly, less off-putting. I can't see myself sporting fishnets but a top hat and tux? That's cool. Throw her wand in there for good measure. Classic stage magician look suits her best

    it's not perfect but defiantly a step in the right direction. Loose the cape, add a top hat: now we're getting somewhere.

    It is very similar to the George Perez Zatanna costume used in the bronze age satellite era Justice League introduced around feb 1981 (jla 187). Can be seen in the cover of jla 191 : http://www.comics.org/issue/35377/cover/4/

    Yeah, I don't think that is a good look at all.

    Personally I liked her show look best out of the New 52 stuff.

    DUMB!!!! I liked the show look or the corset and pants look that she originally had in New 52. Doesn't it seem like DC is back pedaling in almost every story and character now?

    This is my Favorite but im happy with the ones below too. I know the first one is basically the original original of the New 52, the second one is obviously fan made but i like the design and the 3rd isnt bad for like a teenage version of Zatanna but is a little too slutty (I think it wouldn't look so bad with smaller hair and no garters)

    @degraaf: I like the N52 one a lot, just add a top hat to make it seem less generic like the 2nd pic. She's more recognisable like that. But for the 3rd one I CANNOT see Zatara letting his little girl go out like that. I know my dad would sooner lock me in my bedroom before letting me. First Wonder Woman, now Zatanna. Is losing your pants a prerequisite for joining the JL? What the hell DC? I thought you were trying to appeal to more girls.

    I really don't mind what costume they decide on, just as long as they REMOVE THE BIKER CHICK TATTOOS! I don't have anything against tattoos but the new Zatanna has like a gazillion of them, and they take away all the class and femininity she possesses

    Both costumes are fine, the new one is maybe a little better but she needs a Hat.
