And to the boot haters -- Babs did try out a few other options:
Here's Babs during her Oracle days:
Kurt Angle:"Canada is lacking two things.The first is Olympic heroes,and no Ben Johnson does not count.The second is Memorial Day.We in the States celebrate our heroes by having barbecues.I realise here in Canada you can't have barbecues because you'd be attacked by a moose,a caribou or even a grizzly,it's true! Hold on a second - you'd probably be attacked by a grizzly as well.On second thought..the Grizzlies don't beat ANYBODY here in Vancouver,let alone anywhere else,it's true,it's true!"
Some early sketches Babs Tarr did of... Babs. So I imagine they're not quite the final product but should give an idea what civilian Babs will look like.
Barbara looks like she has fun and will also have her no-nonsense moments too. This could be the first DC comic I'll be reading.
The lack of spectacles perturbs me...
She doesn't wear them when she's in costume. Maybe she's just going with contacts.
