I think Zatanna should get a new origin story.
The one that we have is a single issue of Secret Origin which she shares with her father. It's more of Zatara's origin than Zatanna's. Its also awful.
Her father goes missing, she read his diary and realizes she can do magic by speaking backwards.
Then there's Zatanna's Search series where she appears in 4 other titles but they are more focused on the heroes helping Zee rather than Zee doing things by herself.
I want an updated origin story where she goes on an adventure to learn magic rather than learning it by reading a diary.
She looks amazing.
I don't know why the comics change her look so much. The classic was the best. Except in her 2010 series where the artist Stephen Roux managed to make her look hideous. Maybe the proportions were wrong or the cloths weren't right. Either way Zee didn't look right in his drawings to me.
Also they got to use Marcio Takara's design which he made for future State. It looks more like her classic design that most people recognize.

I'm right with you. The leather pants/street wear outfit she's been using since JLD relaunched doesn't work for me. I'm glad that most out of continuity works ignore it in favor of her classic design like Truth and Justice or the Round Robin Mini was going to use. I also really liked her Future State outfit and hope they intend to have her switch to it eventually and preferably soon. Or just go back to her classic Stage Magician outfit like other works. Either one would work for me.
