Ivy's new costume looks horrible.

Agree, the Trinity costume is much better. But this book and the writer are more high profile and the reviews have been great so I expect this to be costume going forward. Hate to say it but Romita had better designs for Harvey and KGbeast than Lutay for Ivy, unbelievable.
What a preview.
Just looked up the new Trinity costume and it's good, but I think I love this Snyder look and costume better. Something fresh & tough about this one, just different enough but not too radical. Trinity's costume is almost not even a new costume because it's so much like old Ivy costumes like from the 80s or early 90s.
I'm glad we're finally getting away some from green skin Ivy. So I credit DC with that.
Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”
The new costume is optically interesting. Could do without the straps though. Or maybe they could have been more ornate straps with the leaf/vine motif too.
Beautiful art. Not really a big fan of the new Ivy. She looks like Mera to me. I thought the one on the cover is the new Ivy design, I prefer that one
Eh...Ivy's rocked bodysuits in the past, but this just doesn't look very appealing to me (why the facepaint?) compared to when they were slowly bringing back her classic look ever since her mini and in Trinity.
Pretty underwhelmed by the redesign, all things considered.
Everything else looks good though .
Now that you mention it, it seems Mera has some competition in the scaly, skintight, bodysuit department .
Am I mistaken or wasn't Batman still fighting Freeze in the arctic as of last issue?
Ehhhh not digging that design. The art is great though, but the design isn't appealing to me.

Not sure why'd they go with green scales when Mera's popularity is on the rise, but okay.
Lovely art from Lotay as usual though.
I don't like the new costume either

I am really enjoying what Snyder is doing with this arc and I'm enjoying it more than the first one.
