Supergirl #7

[aeka]

Picking up where issue #6 left off...










Meanwhile, I keep pretending she's Peege in order to keep me sane until May. This can't be a good thing. XP

That is some lovely art, especially the last page, if only it weren't ruined by that costume... which I just CANNOT get to work at all (and I'm a guy who can justify the Disco!Wing costume)

Fifth? Worldkiller of kryptonian origin? Sounds like Doomsday.

[silverzeo]

Goes without saying this is building up to Doomsday, right?

Canon, History, Class, Logic

The Kryptonian people in the pre-52 universe covered the majority of their skin and frowned on casual skinship. The idea of blatantly displaying their inner thighs - not to mention *ugh* the crotchplate - would have repulsed them. Normally I don't condemn retcons, but here I'd like to see that particular piece of history preserved over this gauche abomination. I LIKE fanservice, I really do. Heck, I grew up ogling Wonder Woman. But this? This isn't even fanservice, her outfit is a huge turnOFF (maybe that's some sort of insane plan to de-sexualize her?)

"Thank Kara."

I think it's cute that thinking is all she does in these pages.

That is and extremely UGLY costume from the waist down.

It still annoys me intensely that they couldn't think of a better name than "worldkillers."

"My battle-bra is too small", an excellent look.

So many things I like, killed by bad fashion.

I'm sorry but, I just can't get past the panty flap.

Decent book I got to say.

....and I still don't see we needed to reboot to have Supergirl in adventures like the above (or this art). this could have been as easily a continuation of the previous and quite recent Supergirl title!

Honestly, I'm just glad they're covering up more of her than usual comic heroines get.

The top is pretty good, and I actually like the crotch plate, but everything goes downhill from there.

You know, it's kind of strange. There are so many costumes that bother the fuck out of me and that no one else seems to care that much about (Ice's costume, Dinah's eighties outfit, Wonder Woman's Odyssey outfit, etc.) and this costume bothers everyone but me.

I mean, don't me wrong, I don't think it's a good costume. But I don't think it's a bad one, either. It's definitely kind of awkward, but I spend exactly zero percent of my reading the issue thinking about it. Whereas everyone else seems to spend about ninety-five percent of their time. Which is a shame, really. It's definitely one of the better titles of the DCnU (the best in my opinion) and I wish more people would concentrate on its awesomeness and not on the costume fail.
