The Huntress has had various costumes over the years, and the one I used for this cover is my favorite. I never understood the design she wore during her time with the Birds of Prey that for some reason had a hole cut out to expose her midriff. I mean, maybe she wanted to show off her rock hard abs, but leaving your gut unprotected seems like an odd choice for someone who goes up against armed criminals so often. I liked when she went with the above design, as it is functional and mixes the looks of her parents, Batman and Catwoman.
The funniest thing about Huntress' previous midriff costume? The last big story she was in before Hush, where that costume was revealed, was No Man's Land, where she was shot in the stomach.
ReplyDeletebanshee and black canary i scream you scream
ReplyDeleteI always figured the bare midriff was meant to distract male enemies. Sounds crude but it would probably be effective.
ReplyDeleteThat exposing your body to distract the enemy only works for Power-Girl. Outstanding work as usual Ross.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget, this is Helina Bartinellie, the mobster daughter. Not Nelena Wayne, the Batman's daughter. This is a pic of the New Earth Huntress, not the Earth 2 Huntress. :)
ReplyDeleteActually, it's the Earth-STF Huntress!
