Helena Wayne Huntress outfit

[red winter]

Which Helena Wayne Huntress costume is your favorite? I am a fan of all three versions of Helena Wayne, the pre-crisis is the one that introduce us to the daughter of the Golden Age Batman and Catwoman while the new 52 version is more tactical sound and my favorite that being said the Helena Wayne from the future so not a fan of that costume, which one is your favorite just curious.

The one and only acceptable Helena Wayne. All others are imitations.

^^^Yeah, this isn’t the most tactical costume ever created, but it just captures the Huntress vibe perfectly.

Don't know much of the Helena Wayne version, just the post-Crisis version
The Jim Lee design is the costume she was wearing when I was first introduced to her. I've been reading the Birds of Prey trade where she joins up, I just dig her character showing up, kicking ass and being all surly.
Out of all her looks I thought this design would be the standard bearer, has this suit fallen out of favor due to it's impracticality/ the objectifaction factor?

Original is the best - but sure, it could be subtly tweaked to feel more 'current'.

How many Helena Wayne's are out there right now? We have Helena from the original Pre-crisis Helena Wayne (Huntress), Helena Wayne New 52 Earth-2 (Batman), Helena Wayne Catwoman/Batman universe (Batman), Helena Wayne Alt-Future (Huntress).

That is my favorite by far, but it is too dated to be used today. A modern update on it would be welcome. I hate what she's currently wearing -- pee-yoo!

Pre-Crisis! It’s a perfectly curated costume from the colors, to the heels, and the mask. It also introduced staple design features that the other Huntress’ suits that followed took from. The current outfit look unfinished and lacks personality, compared to the pre-crisis where you can see that Joe Staton incorporated themes from Pre-Crisis Batman and Catwoman’s suits into Huntress’’, while making it completely unique. I think a good way to improve this new Helena Wayne's suit is by giving using the original color scheme (Purple, Blue, and Pink) and putting some type of emblem since Bertinelli notably has the Cross.

I'm not a huge fan of the current JSA Huntress's costume either. Having said that I think it fits with her darker future origin. I'm hoping after she's been stuck in our timeline for a little while she'll adopt a costume more fitting for the current JSA. Hopefully one that adopts more of the original Helena Wayne Huntress's costume elements. My favorite look for Bertinelli Huntress is the Jim Lee design. I think it's modern and interesting while setting her apart from Helena Wayne.

Agree with this.

Well according to Janin. the current JSA Huntress suit is supposed to have similar elements to the Pre-Crisis one, but more futuristic. I think Helena definitely needs something more present day, I agree. Ruby in issue #8 has a different look than we first saw her in the future. Hopefully the same thing happens with Helena at some point.

Other than the mask, I dont really see any connection to the original costume at all. I do think there would have been a better way to take the original costume and update it with something that more closely resembled it.

I love the Jim Lee costume (wish I could draw) & I like the New 52 costume to so if they were combined minus the cape it would be my ideal Huntress outfit because Helena Wayne from the future her costume is very drab
