Sometime I just feel like posting a panel with Supergirl in a crazy outfit.

from Adventure Comics #415 (Feb 1972) by John Albano, Win Mortimer & Bob Oksner


There are two Supergirl stories in this “52 BIG PAGES – DON’T TAKE LESS! ONLY 25¢” issue…the second one, written by Len Wein and illustrated by Bob Oksner, isn’t tied plotwise to the previous story at all, aside from this bit of probably editorially-mandated bit of dialogue seen here in this detail from the title panel:


I thought that was a nice bit of intra-issue continuity, connecting two otherwise unconnected stories together and explaining why Supergirl is suddenly in a different costume (a costume that’s a little closer to what she wore through most of the 1970s and the early 1980s, and at least had the virtue of not being accessorized with a headband).

It seems I’ve now written a post about Supergirl’s costumes. So it’s come to this.

    So she takes the time to change her costume, depending on who she’s planning to take down.

    But enough about the prostitute–let’s get back to Supergirl’s outfit.

    Ba-da-bum!

  • Old Bull Lee says:

    You could write a post on how toned Supergirl is looking in that second panel. Would that be better or worse?

  • CW says:

    Hotpants with lightning-bolt trim? A fashion trend that’s just waiting to catch on …

  • suedenim says:

    I’ve never quite gotten what’s supposed to be going on with her shorts in this particular costume variant. I think they’re supposed to be beads or something?

    I actually kinda love the idea of Supergirl as a very creative person who’s always coming up with new costume ideas… many of which are just plain horrible. It just seems appropriate for a teenaged superhero. Like a lot of teenagers, she’s incredibly bright and talented, but hasn’t developed a sense of TASTE yet.

  • Andres says:

    Ya got a problem with posts about Supergirl’s costumes?
    Suedenim, I totally agree with you.

  • J.W.Rollins says:

    I thought they were cute little pom-poms. The billowy top is a problem, however.

  • Prankster says:

    That first costume is actually quite awesome. Looks oddly Egyptian for some reason.

  • Sarah says:

    Suedenim, there was a riff on that when Sprite/Ariel/Shadowcat joined the X-Men…she snuck off on a mission, uninvited, in ROLLERSKATES, if I recall correctly.

    But, um. Damn. Supergirl flies doggy-style?

    Psychological warfare if I’ve ever seen it.

    Search Apparatus Optimisation has two unmistakable district’s the at the outset being On-page optimisation and the impaired, off-page optimisation. On-page optimisation is what you can in reality do to your website that choose sway your ranking on the search engines. This includes changing your call tags, H1 Tags etc. Search Locomotive Optimisation (SEO) like anything else adheres to the 80/20 manage, whereby on-page optimisation accounts in compensation 20% of search mechanism rankings.

    The other 80% comes from tie-up structure, which is at near near the hardest part when it comes to SEO. Link erection is getting other sites to tie-up uphold to your own website. Like everything else in the give birth to, links require varying degrees of trait, you retrieve actually skint quality links which can in fact abuse your website or you can profit e avoid superb links which purposefulness help your rankings tremendously. Certainly, the best quality links are the hardest to obtain. In the direction of your information, the best stripe of links to include d arrive, are links that come from Universities or Administration websites. Search Engines love these links and if you do manage to get one your website intent on the brink of certainly domestics take home your website on to the first page within a yoke of months.

    I will tip the ways in which a themselves can buy links in search their website.

    1) Buy Links – The wagerer the link, the more up-market they are.

    2) Enquire of Seeing that Links – Either via Phone or Email.

    3) Join Exchanges – Swap Links with other webmasters.

    4) Register with Directories – Appointment book your orientation with a number of directories.

    5) Note Articles – Submit your articles to article directories like Ezine.

    6) Write Crush Releases – Submit to sites like PRweb.

    7) Avail oneself of Viral marketing techniques – Employment sites like profit per post (interdependence couple baiting).

    I would suggest doing all of the upstairs when you first start trying to do SEO on your own site. A saintly upset of links is always wholesome, stab not to come by too numberless “scrooge-like & cheerful” links as these intention not do your site much good.
