Hate the redesigns. DC is making a habit of breaking what ain't broke.

I like the coverage but couldn't they have done something a bit more of a derivative costume?
I look at her and wouldn't say 'Phantom Lady' at least not yet..... Her costume was pretty iconic even its skimpiness, the green and yellow and black. Most iconic comic book suits have very simple colors. Throw a yellow trenchcoat on a pink top and BAM It's Jubilee.
Couldn't they have kept the Stormy Knight costume but basically filled in the cut-out panels that were originally...not there, thus creating a full covered bodysuit? But keep all the lines? Sort of what they did with Silk Spectre II in the movie Watchmen? (Hell she INSPIRED Silk Spectre)
I'm all for bodysuits and that looks like an awesome hood on her suit (that's a hood right?) but as far as costume design goes this seems a bit over-designed to me, like it's gonna be hard to draw for people, too involved and not very memorable. A lot of the new 52 costumes have been like that, over-designed and overcomplicated. I thanked the design gods when they got rid of that obnoxious purple lining to Batgirl's cape.
I 100% put my faith in Grey and Palmiotti. The Ray was great. And just the fact that they've kept the Freedom Fighters alive as a name that DC fans at least recognize.
Still scratching my head at how they keep talking DC into doing stuff with these characters though since they never sell. Oh well, beggers can't be choosers. I love me some Freedom Fighters. Even if all we get is a set of minis, that'll be pretty good in my book.

The Cover Up Brigade strikes again. Every other Phantom Lady costume was better than this one. She became popular and lasted this long because of her cheesecake factor. When did comic book companies become run by Evangelical Christians?
