Am I the Only One Who Is Annoyed at How Fairchild's Powers Work in the DCNU?

[Corrina]

Just to explain for those who didn't read the issue, yes, that's after she burst through her clothing after growing in size. So, that's her underwear, not a bathing suit. The white boots are from her N.O.W.H.E.R.E. uniform, which all N.O.W.H.E.R.E. personnel wore.

but if she grew, then her bra & panties would be shredded too. I know, artistic license again but...DAMN...a BELT? On the underwear? How the fuck do you get pants on over that?

Magic pants?

My guess is the belted panties are part of her "costume".

She must shop at the same store as Starfire and Catwoman.

I actually thought of The Hulk's magic pants too, and I almost wonder if the purple is an intentiona nod to it. Though the underwear belt is ridiculous.

As far as her physique goes, it doesn't bother me. I actually kind of prefer this to how she's been drawn before. For one thing she looks like an actual person and not some grossly out of proportion 90s style figure. Plus she has actual room for her organs in her torso.

Victoria's Secret?

[RobStaeger]

i actually prefer this version. i like that it LOOKS like she's strong.

Me, too -- though I'm not reading the books shes in -- and hadn't read Gen 13 prior to the relaunch, either -- so I really don't have a pony in the race.

The underwear belt is hilarious. Is that the same belt she's wearing on her pants when she's smaller and dressed? Or does she have a separate underbelt to wear under her public belt?

Victoria's Secret?

That seems about right.

I could see Caitlyn lodging a complaint about her costume some day....

"Dear Victoria's Secret. I am NOT a happy customer. DO you know how embarrassing it was to go into battle and THEN realize the last pair of panties you sent were belted and crotchless?!?!?"

Plus she has actual room for her organs in her torso.

Organs are overrated.

She is wearing a belt in her not-shredded-yet clothing, but I actually think it's a different belt (I can't check until I get home later today). So, she's actually going double-belted, one of which broke when she enlarged, but the other one stuck with her.

Impressive.

I'm not attracted to overly muscle bound women, but I doubt they are attracted to my fat @$$ so everything balances out.

[Treacle]

Found it.



Nope, sorry, I like her new look, and I think she still looks sexy.

I like it. We need more portrayals of women with muscular, athletic physiques in pop culture.

Also, I don't think "bodybuilder" when I see this. I think "in shape chick with a mesomorph build."
