I think this is the first time in comics history that a female character has changed costume to something less revealing. For the sake of balance, maybe next Batman loses the padded codpiece.

Perhaps some of us like Supergirl in panties. Can’t have us men enjoying something drawn to our tastes, can we? No! Feminists forbid it (even as they push loose sex and abortion as virtues)!

Not into comics, but I vote not guilty.

When the majority of readers of comic books turn female, then ask me if Supergirl should change her outfit.

when Supergirl was reintroduced into continuity back in '04, she wore an outfit that might as well have been designed by a committee of pimps and 14-year-old boys
Almost as if 14 year old boys are the *readers* of comic books. Go figure.

Not sure if this is true or not... I heard that one of the artists for Justice Leauge of America (JLA) started drawing "Power Girl" with larger and larger 'frontal lobes' with the motto that 'I am going to keep making them bigger until someone mentions it'. I guess it took awhile for someone to mention it!

I have two daughters, but I give most people credit for being able to distinguish fantasy from reality (unless the topic is economics).

“adolescent objectification of the female form”

As opposed to the ADULT objectification of the female form.
