It was a little buried in my previous entry, so if you missed it

Take a look at that new Star Sapphire costume.

.

It is awful, it is ugly, it looks like a refugee from mid-nineties Image--a peculiar *inversion* of the old Star Sapphire costume, an accident in a pink latex factory--CHOOSE your insult.

I've been hoping they'd bring Carol Ferris back to the new GL book--even if she's married and stays that way, she'd add some interest to the currently really quite dull supporting cast--but not dressed like THAT, dear god. Nor does the GL mythos needs a Star Sapphire who is NOT Carol dressed like that.

[livejournal.com profile] morchades was kind enough to answer my mostly-rhetorical question about the responsible parties: Ivan Reis did the redesign; Peter Tomasi was the editor who should have said DEAR GOD NO.

She also provided an address (conveniently, if possibly not coincidentally, one of the same ones you folks have been sending lettters about Steph to):

Peter Tomasi, Green Lantern Editor
DC Comics
1700 Broadway
New York, NY 10019

Send angry letters. This isn't even just sexist and exploitative; it looks REALLY REALLY DUMB.
