The selfie's the least problematic thing in that image... I mean, why is she taking that selfie at some kind of "party" of some sorts? Is she planning to Instagram that pic, telling all her fans that she's that down-to-earth, even while fight crime?Drizzitdude said:
In the comic I read, they did play with the fear of her being paralysed again but in the most hamfisted way possible: she froze up at pivotal points and got other characters killed about half a dozen times, simply because the villain she was chasing stood up to her.Zachary Amaranth said:
I pretty much just shook my head and sighed, assuming that was just what the "yoof" are into these days.Drizzitdude said:
Or maybe its part of fighting social media crime!
Yeah, that sounds about right.Dragonlayer said:
I got the first collection because Amazon had one of their comic sales and it was only a couple of bucks. It was worth the shot, but it seems like it's a primer in opportunities wasted.
I honestly just wrote it off as DC making another stupid gimmicky idea I can ignore.Drizzitdude said:
bless the creators of Image ( except Jim Lee. He clearly sold his soul to erase his marriage or a parking or something).
I find the outfit odd.
1) Her ears are showing, not a big deal at all, but it's odd.
2) I suck with fashion (so much so I was trying to spell it with a "V" and the computer was telling me it didn't look right), but is it okay, or cool, to wear a belt over a jacket? Looks odd.
3) So, X-Men's Rogue, when she wore a belt that sagged on a tilt from one hip to the next, design choice and not much more lala, sure, same here, but, does that belt look like it's supposed to have that tilt, and only that tilt. It looks like it's made to have a tilt by design, that's odd right? Like all Rogue had to do was tighten the damn thing, but Barbs looks like that belt has uneven loops to go through. Like pre-ripped jeans only with a belt tilt.
4) The pant stripe looks weird, like running pants weird. I think I get they're trying to mimic Steph's outfit there, but Steph's had a texture that made it work, maybe only just work, but it seemed to fit with it's ribbed-ness.
EDIT : DAMNIT, didn't relize I was reading a few days old topic, sorry.

Barbara was offered a medical solution not available to the public. She gets pretty beat up over it at the beginning, wondering what makes her more important than the common person. In short: DC still is trying to pretend Stephanie Brown never happened.Dragonlayer said:
I still give no craps about DC- no I'm not over Future's End Zero- but the decision to go for a lighter approach could mean DC is finally gonna stop acting like a 12 year old who just learned about swearing and is doing it to look "mature" (And those quotes can NOT be used more loosely). On the other hand, they still have all those Batman books to sell about Bruce focusing on the DARKNESS and the DEAD PARENTS (I don't know, haven't picked a DC comic up in ages).
Looking at the photo, the tilt I think is explained by the fairly large pouch on her right hip. The pouches and stuff don't seem to be evenly distributed around the body, so if the weight is off on the right, it would make sense for it to tilt a bit. Also, she appears to be affecting a slight "pose" in the picture, a little bit of a hip swivel to the side, which could also throw off the balance and cause the "tilt"ChristopherT said:
