	Such a great costume . I really dislike the latex Nun version at present. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	OM NOM Staton-drawn Helena Wayne.... and I so love PG's costume without the boobwindow. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	strange enough , as I just read, the boob window was there from the start. I wonder if the early editors thought perhaps it was a bit much,and didn't enforce the continuity ???? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

The boob window lasted for about six months initially. Then they closed it up, leaving her with a plain white leotard:

That lasted a few issues, and then Joe Staton introduced the scoop-neck version that remained for many years:

Not sure when the classic boob-window was reinstated. I remember Ross had her wearing it in Kingdom Come, that might've been what inspired them to bring it back in the regular books.

	Well I noticed that they have given Moondragon (back from the dead) PG's same boob window. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They've both changed so much. Physically, as well. They've both got essentially the same body, there. While it's true that Peeg's gone up a cup size or two since then, she's made a much bigger change than that: she's uniquely muscular among female heroes. You can tell who she is from the back. Huntress... sadly, Crisis was not really kind to her. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah. I have never liked the revamp Huntress.I also fid it odd no one thought to do an Earth 2 "World's finist" with PeeGee and Huntress. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well they kinda have to, there's no other way for a Huntress to fit a modern continuity. You can't have a thirtysomething Batman with a twentysomething year old daughter, it just doesn't work. Thus, the revamp is necessary. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

OMD is a total different kettle of fish. For one, Spider-Man didn't have continuity confusions until OMD/BND created them, and for another it can be easily argued that the Huntress revamp added something, aka a mainline DCU Huntress character where none existed before, whereas it's difficult to say that OMD/BND did anything but take things away from the 616 Spidey.

Time travel? As an X-Men fan, really, you don't want to go down that road. Honestly.

It all started innocently enough, with Rachel Summers spinning out of an amazing and now-classic story way back in the early 80s, and ended up with a convoluted mess of alternate future refugees and multiple conflicting timelines and time-addled plots that even hardcore fans get a headache just thinking about it.

Next time you think the Huntress revamp is bad, just put yourself in the shoes of those people saying to themselves "for fuck's sake, couldn't they have just made Cable someone else entirely? Preferably not from the future, and without two clones and a space computer and whatever the hell is up with the Askani thing? And while we're at it, where in the hell does Bishop fit into this? Do the Sentinels take over everything, or is it Apocalypse, or is the future run by mutant cops? Does anyone actually know? ARRRRRRGH!"

You don't want to open that particular Pandora's Box.

	One of the few things I liked about Infinite Crisis was Power Girl suddenly feeling like she needs to hang out with Huntress, and Helena being like, "Um, do I even KNOW you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Joe Staton had so much promise. I remember his E-Man strip as refreshing and creative. He seemed to go downhill suddenly, maybe he needed to team up with a regular inker or something. (Reply to this) (Thread)
