In fairness to Dave Cockrum’s Saturn Girl costume, lots of Legionnaires of both genders wore pretty revealing costumes at that time…

“Gender-Swapped Costumes — Never Not-transphobic”

It’s a shame Work It got canceled, most of those commenters would have loved it.

Gender play should be fun, not made fun of. However, some of those examples really crossed the line. Drag isn’t a punchline, but several of the examples shown made it the point of mockery and shame.

Too bad too, some of the art looked fabulous.

The funny thing is, the women often look better in the men’s costumes. I think Black Canary looks better in Green Arrow’s costume there than she does in that ridiculous costume Green Arrow has on.

And, of course, the vice versa never works. The guy never looks better in the woman’s costume.

I liked the JLA in variations of Wonder Woman’s outfit, especially Aquaman saying “Eh, I’ve worn worse.” :D

That’s one of the ones in the post I linked to. I suspect we’ll see them all over the net soon. :)
