Scrap the Spandex: The Superheroes Most In-Need Of A Redesign

In today’s superhero comics, form is finally trumping fashion. As Spider-Woman turns in her trademark spandex costume for a more action-resistant uniform, she continues the trend of practical superhero remodeling. Batgirl just went through a similar revision in October, and Hawkeye and Captain Marvel opted for more realistic costumes just a few years back.

Sure, comic characters get redesigns almost every Wednesday, but we’re thinking about costume alterations that actually benefit, or, at the very least, not hinder their wearer. Below, we run through the costumes most in-need of a fresh approach.
