    Huh.I think I wouldn’t have much problem with this if she didn’t have the eye shadow mask and the yellow stripes on the boots.

    Maybe the outfit looks better in the dark.

    Surprisingly close to the comics. The make up (and probably the hair) – gives her a terribly severe-looking face, though.

    Are all these characters supposed to shame Clark into putting on the cape, though (assuming that he ever does)?

    …I won’t get to see this episode until the bloody autumn, though. Boo!

    Lighting can fix a lot.

    But those raccoon eyes have me flashing back to BLADE RUNNER.

    She has that Annie Lennox/1983/Touch look going on.

    Deleted one comment … let’s keep the personal insults/death wishes out of the comments section, okay?

    This would have been a good opportunity to drop those ugly fishnets

    So has this show now become ersatz watered down looks sorta like a DC Hero of the week? If Clark even does put on a costume will it be the classic costume or some BS version the show dreams up?

    It’s better than Lori Laughlin in jeans and a t-shirt on “Birds of Prey”…but not really much better.

    That’s not Black Canary. That’s Patty Bernstein, the motorcycle stuntwoman who dated Navin R. Johnson when they both worked at the circus together.

    Actually, Rich, they seem to be getting closer and closer to the costumes from the comics. Flash (I believe he was the first guest hero) just wore normal clothes with the right colors, like Clark does. Green Arrow actually wore something that looked like a costume.

    Now this Black Canary costume is almost identical to the original from the comics. Fishnets, black jacket, low cut shirt, it’s all pretty close, other than the hair. The makeup is messy, but it is reminiscent of the mask she originally wore.

    To me it feels like they’ve been working their way towards the costumes all along.

    Anyone else think she looks like Kylie Minogue in that photo?

    It’s looking great. Should have just blonde wigged it though!

  13. Robert Says:

    She looks like a raccoon.

    She is the worst thing related to black canary,specially with the hippie stoned scream she does, hell PINK looks better in the mtv awards with almost the same outfit.
