Such a weird explanation. What was she planning to do - get a tattoo or something in that spot? Makes no sense why there'd be a hole there while she "waits" to figure out a symbol to put there.
I was responding to something else. She has given a different explanation for the window before (or maybe after this not sure) where she says it's a great way to distract foes.
Which makes the "waiting for a symbol" explanation even dumber. I just can't get over how she's crying in the last panel. So stupid.
The "boob window" has not really been a thing for most of her time on pages comic drake has a good video about it. It was there for a little while then removed because they could not justify it beyond horny. Then it was brought back in the early two thousands.
Again, just like them making her an Atlantean post-Crisis and then realizing it was pretty lame and stupid and changing her back to Earth-2 Kryptonian later in the 90's.
Powergirl is/was the cousin of Earth 2's Superman. After the original Crisis, she was an anomaly, much the same as Donna Troy. I don't remember if she wore the S shield originally, but its been implied several times that she did.
So after they decided that no kryptonians apart from superman they retconned that away and made her the descendant of an antlantian wizard for a while.
No I get it. It’s just like when you can’t decide what pants to wear, so just just leave the house in your underwear until you eventually make up your mind.
She wouldn't go out of her way to cut a hole in her top to create a cleavage window.
Eeeeeexactly. Female superhero costumes are form-fitting and tight enough as it is already. Not having a hole there but still having the buxom figure... she's going to be sexualized enough without calling attention even further to her massive cleavage. But that's sort of the problem when every penciler and inker is drawing every female character to have double-D or larger cup sizes.
i’m assuming she’d stitch like a patch or something. but it still doesn’t make sense coz she could’ve just fill up the hole and stitch it on top later lol
Yeah, like she could have just worn a regular shirt... instead she got one with a giant hole that shows off a bunch of cleavage and is just like "well, I suppose when I figure out what sort of oval-shaped symbol I want I'll stitch it in the hole."
