I think you just proved why Reed Richards is the smartest man of all time. He made combat swimsuits feasible when he set out to fulfill his best friend Ben’s dream of fighting Hulk in his undies.
Also Janet Van Dyne, she had a Sense of fashion and Even designed costumes for other héroes like Ms Marvel (which btw, had her suit Made With unstable molécules).
To this day I'm still surprised that Marvel pushed so hard with Carol as "Captain" Marvel. They took a top 20 selling book (the 2006 series) and turned it into something that could barely stay in the top 100 - relaunching it several times, just to have it fail several times until enough time had gone by that people started forgetting how much better Carol as Ms. Marvel was.
Still pisses me off. They wanted their own version of Wonder Woman, but they absolutely did not need to ruin her design and change her character like that. She used to be iconic, but now she is just… bland
There's a difference. She wasn't treated as exotic and a piece of ass. She just looked good in it while fighting villains.same with Emma. Psylocke just became ass.
I miss everything about old Carol. Her as Captain Marvel is either boring or flat out aggravating. As much as I like Kamala Khan, I also real wish we got the interesting and fun Ms. Marvel Carol back
She’s confident and doesn’t care ¯_(ツ)_/¯ people wear bathing suits that are this revealing. Maybe not as a field uniform for psychic ninja combat, but you’ll just have to suspend your disbelief on that one (because the real answer is “she wears it because people like drawing and looking at it”)
You don’t have to “suspend belief”. People wear this stuff normally these days. I get comic nerds not knowing a lot of women or going to the gym often but man these reddit dudes gotta chill with the white knighting. I work in nightlife and this is rated G compared to what I’ve seen people wear for attention and not just women. Ironically these types of leotards (but more often as a two piece) are what the majority of professional dancers (not strippers, festival/GoGo dancers) wear when performing due to how they don’t restrict movement but cover the important parts.
Indeed, people talk about every generation having slang and this may be true but even for all the generations we would mock that we don’t fall into, none are like this.
