What went wrong?

Fans got hornier and decided what the heck, why not have a stripper save the day? I'll never understand the appeal of skimpy cheesecake costumes. I've got porn for that.

Because something can look good without giving you a boner, you horndog

Yeah skimpy does not suit her.
Or it might just be tbat the design is bad.

Most characters are best left to their original designs, period.

The sexual revolution was a mistake.
Women should be at home, raising babies and modestly dressed at all times.

Tumblr pls

too much clothing

Why aren't there more nudists in comics? There is She-Hulk and Storm, any others?

>tumblr saying "Women should be at home, raising babies and modestly dressed at all times."
sounds more like Sup Forums

Right looks cool and sexy.
Left looks awful in both color and design.

Those are both hideous.

>Those are both hideous.
animated one was the best design.

Don't you mean "what went right"?

Imra has never had a bad costume, the mom haircut is more debatable but they gave her a ponytail back eventually

I, for one, support the de-skimpifying of women's costumes. When skimpyness isn't your primary agenda, you can make outfits that actually look good.

Slutty LOSH best LOSH

I agree, 5 is the best, and the Farrah Fawcett hair doesn't hardly look right on anyone.

#bringbackslutCos

I prefer the red to the pink (Cos should own pink when not lewd).

Nothing whatsoever

The Ranzz twins are from a planet of nudists, but it's more Ayla's thing than Garth most of the time.

But new WW is still too revealing for some feminists.

You'd be surprised how backwards tumblr could be.

Why did Lyssa suddenly decide "Hey maybe I should fly around in a sling bikini with no accessories"? It's so underdesigned.

Horseshoe theory in action

peer pressure, she is just trying to keep up with him

I can already picture that conversation

>You're still in that old jumpsuit with the beehive do, Lyssa. Get with the times. It's 2978!

The skirt is actually better because then you can imagine she's wearing no underwear haha

How is the male striper from the upper center image?.

The 80s made tight spandex cool. Seriously, that's the reason. Anyone who thinks there's some other reason wasn't alive in the 80s.

Cosmic Boy

Honestly, despite the sometimes highs(like MEL issues), probably 5YL. The darker edgier turn on the story gradually drove fans away and necessitated the reboot that only muddled things further and set a precedent for Threeboot.

Outfit on the left is fine, you got a problem with consensual sex in the missionary position for the purposes of procreation or something? Because that's her Fucking Garth uniform.

Legion of Super Heroes is such an underrated cartoon.
So full of waifus too. Every girl was either hot, cute, or both.

I never cared for Imra's bikini because by the time it appeared she was already perceived as the Grand Matron of the Legion and it simply seemed inappropriate. That was an outfit for a younger girl, not a grown woman and mother. It falls into the same dislike-pool as when Sue decided to wear her "4" cutout.

Don't get me wrong, I consider both Imra and Sue to be very sexy women, I just don't think either of their personality types would perceive the need to convey their sexuality by so much bare skin. Thats a game for the young; confident women pull off sexy while fully clothed.

>Lyssa

Lydda. C'mon, guys, I know she's just a Sub but you can at least remember her name.

>tfw you've got a power cool enough to be a good street level vigilante but not cool enough to get into the Legion

Night Girl was born centuries too late.

>I never cared for Imra's bikini because by the time it appeared she was already perceived as the Grand Matron of the Legion and it simply seemed inappropriate.

You have never read Legion, I can already tell.

neither of these designs are very good
i believe that both fully clothed and skimpy outfits can look good if they are designed well

Alexis Luthor is the peak Qt though.
I'm off to /aco/ to see if I can get some porn of her.

But if she was born earlier, she wouldn't even HAVE powers, because she only got them in the first place because Rokk was her husbando.

Then maybe she should have gotten super strength that worked all the time!

This is still her best look, but she needs her updo.

Every look is better than retroboot Owl Cleavage, though, let's agree on that.

original one wasn't bad but maybe it would look better with short sleeves ? Tights under a skirt is odd but at least her underpants aren't visible every time she flies

global warming got so bad by 3000 AD that everyone had to wear beach clothes all the time

I know artists love to draw the 'flayed' human form but can't we have a little realism - all it'd take is some guy strong or/and fast enough and suddenly the navel/back regions of Saturn Girl's cozzie're sheared through and she's too busy try'n'o hitch up her drawers or cover her minge to actually do any fighting. Ditto Superman or Batman.

Ugh. It's so bad. Why do they keep giving her costumes with that retarded owl beak boob window?

This was back in the days when you couldn't find porn. Not saying it wasn't retarded, but there was some reasoning behind it

>Imra has never had a bad costume
Half of those are terrible.

For the same reason Saturn Girl got that redesign.

>I'll never understand the appeal of skimpy cheesecake costumes
Well that's a lie and we both know it, you understand it really well. You're just a huge prude and aren't comfortable with its appeal.

What happened is that you're a bitch SJW that doesn't read comics. If you get annoyed by a simple costume that A FICTIONAL character wears, you're a little bitch

There's a balance. I think the Rebirth WW is pretty on point, its not a sex garment but it retains a very idealised look that is sexy among other things.

Compare with what a lot of de-skimpifying does, which is go way to far the other way. Captain Danvers is an example.

...

thankfull Dream Girl outfit is saved for now from tumblr.

Cockrum is best.

I don't think there's a single Grell/Cockrum era LOSH costume that isn't the best one for the character.

shit taste detected

>I never cared for Imra's bikini because by the time it appeared she was already perceived as the Grand Matron of the Legion and it simply seemed inappropriate. That was an outfit for a younger girl, not a grown woman and mother.

user, pls.

Threeboot Luornu, Reboot Vi

I really like the Reboot style outfits in general.

Nothing. You're a fag.

LLTL

>I've got porn for that.

I'm very VERY interested (VERY) in knowing what porn you've been looking at that ticks all of these points

-Sexy costumed adventurers/heroines/crime fighters
-getting into exciting and/or strange situations
-that don't revolve around sex

If you can do that, you can make an argument for porn. If you can't, then fuck right off.

I love how modern feminism tries to dictate their own definition of 'femininity,' when it's literally up to the individual to decide what it means to them.

I started reading comics in the early 90s, mostly Marvel stuff like X-Men, Wolverine, Spider-Man, Avengers,...

When I tried to get on DC stuff I found the LoSH which I saw as silly but people said they're popular as the X-Men before COIE.

>Legion of Super Heroes is such an underrated cartoon.

First season, at least.

LoSH only got their own comics in 1980, they always been a backup to make Superboy more interesting.

Nobody complains when Conan The Barbarian cuts down hoards of monsters as his exposed, washboard abs glisten with blood, sweat, and the lamentations of the opponant's women.

Nobody complains when Dick Grayson or Spider-Man's perfect little man asses are on display for the world to see in those skin tight costumes.

Nobody complains when Samurai Jack strips down to his loincloth, lets his hair down, and gets covered in cuts, bruises, and oily robot guts.

Welcome to fantasy lands where people can dress half naked and still be affective at what they do. Fuck tumblr and fuck SJW's. If you were a 10/10 super heroine with perfectly proportioned everything and an immunity to bullets and a WMD behind each eyeball, you'd show off the goods and feel sexy and confident too.

Except that Saturn Girl isn't bulletproof, you casual tard.

No fucking shit. It's a generalization of super heroines in general.

Well, the Legion had Adventure as their own book for a loooong time

First season dawdles around too much. Second season has a stronger story even if they did sideline the waifus for no reason.

ITT: Edgy faggots who never read LoSH and yet still try to speak like they have any authority on the matter

Adventure Comics?

...

The funny thing is that WB didn't have the Superboy rights for a long time.

after is 40 years out of date..

yeah, they'd pretty much taken over that book for years and eventually it got renamed to Legion of Super Heroes

...

...

...

Are you sure? It was the Superboy book that got renamed Legion of Superheroes in 1980.

Was it? I thought they'd been in Adventure Comics, my bad

This.
These fashions are obviously inspired by styles from the late-70's and early-80's. Obvious if you were around back then...

here, dafuq did you include me for?

I think the 70s/80s aesthetic works really well with LoSH desu.

LoSH sucks

That user's retarded.

i regret nothing

Ah, yes. Sue's "Welp, Reed's Dead, time to reel in an Atlantean sugardaddy" costume. Do you think Franklin has a complex about it/will have a complex about it once he's old enough to really understand it?

You goddamn right he will.

Prove you read LoSH comics.

This but unironically.
I'm annoyed at this too. Heroes should be heroes. It's fine for non-heroes though. I don't care about them.

Nothing went wrong. DC just let a talented artist (Mike Grell IIRC) draw the Legion super sexy because people WANT sexy super-heroines.

Hell, why do you thing DC super-heroines outsell Marvel super-heroes? DC knows to give fans eye candy

Do the names Sir Prize and Miss Terious ring any bells? Who sacrificed their life to bring back Lightning Lad? Who are Validus's parents? Why did Matter-Eater-Lad leave the Legion? Why were Superboy and Supergirl forced to temporarily give up Legion Membership, along with their memories of the Legion? Who is Tyroc and why does he have a stupid costume?

I just wish there was more fanservice of the males. Especially Lightning Lad. Had such a massive crush on him as a kid.

...you're alright.

Am I gonna get lynched if I say that both seasons were good for different reasons?

No, that's what I think too.

I was asking about porn. Whether or not I read LoSH is totally irrelevant to the point. Not realizing that does kinda reinforce the point that you're a retard though.

>sideline the waifus for no reason.
they sidelined them for more gay between b5 and the supers

what's wrong?

looks like she really has to go to the bathroom
