Dear god that costume looks awful (yeah I know, that was really blunt)

Kinda sucks a little extra since her old costume was so cool

@captainmarvel4ever: I have to agree. I mean, at least the first costume was loyal to the Image days. This is just...no.Just,no.

@narcosilva: True, I was mostly just thinking it looked cool, but you're right about the Image stuff too.

Also welcome to Comic Vine

@captainmarvel4ever: I have to disagree, while the current one isn't perfect by any means the last one was so overly 90s, oversexualized, and impractical (the current one still isn't 100% practical but it definitely makes more sense), it was honestly kinda ridiculous. Just look at that giant belt

Nevertheless she could still use a better costume

Heh. I agree.

Was issue three good? I missed picking it up

ugh Angie's new costume is garbage

@rageex2 said:

It wasn't that sexual, and it was also far more practical then the current outfit, that looks like it's very hard to move/fight in as oppose to her old costume. Besides this costume shows a lot of cleavage (which really does not help it look more appealing).

Also these are super heroes, they're meant to look just a little bit ridiculous, that's part of the fun (and I personally dug the giant belt).

What...what have they done to my Angela? Rewind. Right now. Pronto.

Is this series any good..I have some in my pull but I just never bothered to pick it up because mixed feelings from people.

Shoot. I thought Danver's mullet was crazy, but this takes the cake!

Who actually thought this costume looked good?

didn't kid-loki free all the Disir from their curse? if that's indeed the name thor is calling out

@iamerrorr: Not really, the writing isn't good, but the art is great, pick up the first two issues for the art alone. After that she get's this eyesore of a costume, so it kinda kills the good art thing.

@captainmarvel4ever: oh haha I might just put them back in the store then... :\ I kinda feel the same is going to happen with the guardians team up that recently is coming out...but the art doesn't even look great just the cover art.

Her new suit is so terrible :(

And that art is not doing it for me either. Bummer.

@jean_dezem: Oh right that's old not sexual at all, no sir-ree... The current one at least looks like its some kind of clothing instead of bronze leggings, weightlifting belt and steel bra's though the new one really isn't that much better. WTF is up with the shoot/stab-me-in-the-heart cleavage-thing? I don't even see it as all that smexy but they keep drawing it for all women heroines.

When did the new outfit turn into plate armour it looked better when she first put it on. My bigger peev is the fauk hawk trend for female superheros.

Might have to pick this up in trade. And I'm loving that art.

I'm still not sure if we're supposed to like Angela or not. Kidnapping an infant is not cool, lady.

Really enjoy the book but that new costume has to go...

I like the story, but that new costume is fugly.

Lmao at the character descriptions

still not feeling the new costume and hair style

@asgaard: yep.I actually follow the series religiously. And considering that the costume adapts to what the wearer thinks is beautiful, Phil Jimenez really screwed this up. Sure,it looks kick ass and what not (sans the mohawk), but its just too, I don't know, un-Angela. I mean if I were not following this comic, I wouldn't even recognize that that chick is Angela.

@narcosilva: If you follow this series religiously, you can post your likes and dislikes and future possible events in this topic...

Angela Asgard's Assassin

@arturocalakayvee: ikr, had me dying
