So...

Old costume or new costume?

My preference? Totally new costume. I like the body condom fine, but the new one looks almost like something somebody would actually wear to fight crime, and the glasses are just epic. I also like that she isn't being sexualized to such a ridiculous extent. It suits her personality more.

Eh, you can't go too hard on her old costume. That was back when her pheromones were unchecked, meaning every guy that came into contact with her almost instantly became enthralled. In many ways, her old threads matched her powers and sultry personality perfectly.

But yeah, people change, and I agree that her new look fits her current style and persona. Still, I can't help but feel like all of these "hip" parkour clothes costumes are going to look just as dated as those ridiculous costumes from the '80s. :laughing:

And in terms of what someone who fights crime would actually wear, it could go either way. I think She Hulk put it best in her first graphic novel, when she hits the streets in a ****ing ridiculous outfit, shocking Wyatt Wingfoot who was like "The **** are you wearing?" She responds by basically saying that indestructible people who have seen the worst of humanity tend to have a hard time pretending to be normal and generally giving a **** what people think of their fashion sense, hence the weird costumes with surprisingly good freedom of movement when you think about it, and the flashiness helps them to stand out from other heroes. Considering that Samurai used to strap huge ass family crest banners on their backs, as well as decorate their armor and demon-face helmets/masks with bright fur and even antlers (like Honda Tadakatsu), she's kinda got a point.

I read a series of webcomics called XDragoon. Alien dragons, teenage girl, anime style, muscular battles where people shout their attack names and look vaguely like Vector the Crocodile. No joke. The author's a total Sonic fan.

Despite all that, the webcomic gets really cool after the second chapter, evolving its story and putting in some cool twists. A lot of character, too.

Does anyone here understand the appeal of Homestuck? A few of people I know are really into it, but from what I've tried to read it's just incredibly stupid.

Be on your guard. The hedgie hegemony are an unpredictable lot.

*shrug*

Oh, believe me. You don't have to tell me twice.

Does anyone know of the game, "what horrible Sonic OC are you?" Google your first name and "the hedgehog" into Google images, and find the first Deviantart result. That's you.

Having said all of that, XDragoon is Sonic at minimal level. Only thing Sonic about it are some appearances and a magic gem, and a red-colored hothead. But that should come as no surprise, since Raphael's movie personality was around before Knuckles, and we also have Giroro from the amazing show, Sgt. Frog, where the man who plays Natsu plays a bumbling alien frog sergeant with an obsession for vacuums and gundams! Giroro's voice is Zoro (One Piece) and Tamama is Chopper. In other words, yet another Funimation wonder.

Just picked up issue #1 of Hellcat, due to Suzy's recommendation. Love me some tongue-in-cheek comics. Have yet to read it, but as Harley Quinn #24 also just came out it's gonna be a humor-comic day.

Hellcat is the shit. She's the only hero so far that's fucked with Dormammu by calling him shit like "Dormat" and "Dormouse" before kicking his ass, and then defeated his son with the power of soap operas, all while making it snow in Mephisto's hell dimension. :laughing:

Her new series is super light-hearted, though. It's clever and fun, but a part of me wishes it had more action.

Yeah, someone made a thread about it awhile back. :laughing:

I have no problem with comics that are light on the action. When it's a comic-parody thing then a lack of action can actually be a good thing, since there's more time to concentrate on mocking the character aspects of superheroes. It's one of the things I love about Spider-Woman. If I want action-oriented lampooning then there's always Deadpool.

Oh, and I almost forgot about the perfect comic for you: The Superior Foes of Spider-Man. It's got light-hearted comedy, tongue-in-cheek action, great characters, and focuses on characters nobody on Earth has ever heard of.
