As far as a new huntress costume....great example how women can look sexy wthout showing all their skin. not that I have anything against it, it is just not practical.

But an Omac project tie in? I have to read the omac project to understand the plot? Think I will pass this month, thanks.

Nice homage to Huntress' very first origin!

You might want to take a look at the issue before you decide to pass. The Huntress and Black Canary parts of the issue (probably) wouldn't involve OMAC - only Oracle. Even that may be following more of what we've seen with her Brainiac virus development.

You don't have to read Omac to get the plot, I promise.

Bop is its own thing, even when these infrequent crossovers happen.

I just figured it out! That great Anthony Yeoh character in BOP is really Mockingbird, who is also controlling OMAC!

And Infinite Crisis is all going to come to a head in Singapore.

Damn, i'm good.

Where's the homage to her first costume?

Her first costume showed considerably more skin than her Lee design and was various shades of bright purple.

Still, I approve.

Happy to see the new costume. The Lee one just didn't seem to be dark enough.

Good work, Gail! What suggestions did you make for her costume? Did you take any of ours???

Cool costume! I like all the pouches on her belt and leg, very nice equipping her so well. And who knew that those ears on her mask could so very, nicely mimic the Bat-ears -- I'll tell you who didn't: me. Very nice.

Bother. I was hopping that Huntress would deal more harshly with that man for his impertinent remarks.

As to the new costume.....um....hate to say it but I had gotten used the last one. I don't mind her in tights but I liked the bare midriff look. But it will do. Look forwards to reading the issue.

I have been working on a series of sketches of the BOPpers but I stopped when I saw the Huntress was getting a new costume because I knew I would like the new one better. Now I can start working on my sketches again! :)

This looks to be really good. Like the new costume. Looks like Huntress is going back to her old ways. I really wan't to see how the mission in Singapore goes. From the looks of the solicits. Not so good.

I said first ORIGIN, not costume. ;)

A criminal on a pier is approached by a shadowy figure with a billowing cape and pointed "ears" but when they get closer he sees that it's not Batman but Huntress.

Looks to be another great issue. Sometimes I worry that since Gail is on this board a lot that praise may come across as pandering or insincere, but BOP is seriously one of the most consistently well-written comics going. It maintains a high level of goodness month after month.

And I like the new costume. Lee's was fine but it wasn't the most logical.

I dunno, I still kinda like Lee's costume, thought the new one has it's good points too.

Meanwhile, the wait for the next BoP kills me every month. And the whole Brainiac/Oracle thing finally addressed? *whimpers* I can't wait another week!
