Hey everyone!
Eyz here. This is my first post ever on scans-daily!
'been following s-d for quite some time now (but still a noob regarding posting/commenting so forgive me in any case!)

Here's a little webcomic parody by writer and artist Aaron Diaz, author of the comic "Dresden Codak". In which they point out and make fun of stereotypical superheroine costumes. More specifically, Wonder Woman and PG's respective costumes.

I thought it deserved a little mention here :P

And for legality, PeeGee's origin as depicted by Adam Hughes:

I don't get the WTF HEELS? thing. She's a flyer. She can wear whatever she wants on her feet because she doesn't use them for walking. If she wanted, Wonder Woman could fly around with gophers strapped to her feet. It wouldn't matter.


Also, not sure if Power Girl would flap in the wind, seeing as her bra is probably made out of the same stuff Citizen Steel's costume is made out of. What'sitmacalled. Steel.

Other than that, this seems fair. Wonder Woman's lack of straps is somewhat bothersome.

Wonder Woman still does a fair amount of super-speed running and ground-based fighting, and she certainly seems to be using her feet for it.

OTOH, if you can magically keep your footing when dodging around at multi-Mach speeds and pushing thousand-ton objects and stuff, no reason why you can't do it in heels.
