During her mid-70s Adventure Comics run Supergirl went through a number of different costumes submitted by readers. I haven't been able to find a decent gallery of those costumes, though, but some of them were pretty out there.

Could you tell us what issue of "Adventure" this is? I'd like to find a larger scan, and many such cover collections are on the Web.

My views are my own and do not reflect those of everyone else... and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Comics.org is your best bet for a gallery of Supegirl's mod costumes.

My favorites from that era were the first one with the chain belt and hip boots, the body stocking uniform (that had a match S logo belt -- kind like Batgirl's costume) and, of course, the beaded hot pants/ballerina slippers look look that slowly morphed in the iconic hot pants and boots look that she had for nearly 10 years.

I have all of the Adventure Comics Supergirl issues from this period. Supergirl has always been one of my favorite characters. My favorite outfit from that period is the mini-skirt, chain belt and hip boots. laugh

I suppose the real question is how did it stay on?

I think DC should do this again in the current run of Supergirl. Have readers submit new costume designs and have Supergirl try some on. It might make the current run better.
