    The skirt-while-flying question is no more or less worth asking than it ever has been- so I feel completely justified in ignoring it, just as DC has been doing since the fifties.

    I like this new costume a lot- and maybe the only thing I don't like about it is the old-school "S". They went full Man of Steel on the color scheme, so I'd have liked to see that same design on the "S".

    Eh- they're probably hedging their bets the way I wished Smallville had around 2006- by emphasizing the Superman Returns "S", they dated the show, and by the time Clark actually started wearing an "S" logo, Returns was more or less a footnote in the public mindset. So I can see why they're doing a more traditional "S"- if this show runs for ten seasons and the current series of Superman movies doesn't stay in the public mindset for ten years, the MoS "S" might look kind of silly later on- but I think MoS has more staying power than Returns. Despite understanding that they've got good reason not to use that "S", I wish they had.

    Oh well! It doesn't actually hurt the design for me. Still pretty great!

    I doubt the Krypton from Man of Steel was prepared for skirts and Knee-high boots anyway. Zor-El would be so ashamed!


    Hehe! Supergirl's new costume is great!

    I Love it! I love her whole (Super)girl next door look. So happy they didn't try to overly sexualize the character.

I wasn't big on them going with the skirt, but the leggings make me more ok with it, they balance out. All in all I like it.
    this somewhat captures my sentiments quite well! I was not expecting a skirt at all! but I kind of like it upon seeing it . We still need to see it in action, but all an all looks really damn good! A modern looking Supergirl with some silver age roots. I think melissa seems like a good actress and if she can bring Kara to life than it be a great show i think.

    I was kind of hoping they would go with this costume minus the goggles...

    but I am happy with the costume we got.

    She looks to feminine
    Supergirl should probably just start wearing pants after the pilot if the show gets picked up. Everything else looks good

    Anybody see any fan art of the new suit yet?

    or any artist interpretation of the new suit?

    Why are there tights underneath the skirt? Those boots are pretty high and I'm pretty that woman's legs are going to get hot.

    I couldn't vote on this as I neither love nor hate the costume.

    It's alright. About what I was expecting.

    I like it well enough. Its not a horrible eye-sore and is very much recognizable as Kara, but it isn't re-defining live action superhero costumes either.

    It's perfectly viable and I like that they added some leggings under the skirt, just for modesty reasons.

    Realizing the costume was made to appeal to the general tv audience as opposed to the comic book fan, I like the look on Melissa and think the outfit looks great on her simple yet tasteful.

    Perfect, they probably will use it in the book later.

    It looks homemade, makes sense since it is a friend who made it for her

    That's what I was thinking. Looks like a homemade Cosplay effort.
