No mention of Black Canary's fishnets and high heels?

And really, any street hero (Batman, Moon Knight I'm looking at you)
who wears a cape should be on this list. I mean, yeah, we accept it
since it's been a part of comic lore for so long, but really, fighting
off 10 or 12 bad guys while wearing a f*cking cape? gidouddahere.

Any "Armor" that bares lots of the body, especially the stomach, on a
"superhero" that specializes in melee warfare.

Nowadays she just wears boots with her fishnets.

Same went for Zatanna until "Everyday Magic" when they had her wearing
thigh-high boots.

I find any list that bases it's #1 on a complete misunderstanding of
costumes to be pretty bad.

It's costume under Supergirl's skirt, not "underwear".

The shot of Rogue in that article I believe comes the closest ever to a
cartoon/comic that I want to plow.

It may be a long time ago, but I think Lady Luck's costume was supremely
impractical. But I never complained

I'd almost want to see a Horse built out of Manure. Z would more
likely say esroh erunam since the word order is forward but the words
are backward.
