![]() ![]() This is pretty much the most clothed she’s ever been, and as such I feel bad taking potshots at it, but considering how armored up those pants are, I have questions about the bare midriff. Well, I mean, they’re super weird pants, but they’re pants. Kory quickly returned to her original look for the rest of the decade, or at least until 1999, when she decided to experiment with fascinating Earth concept of “pants”: (Side note: the wedding was interrupted by Evil Raven showing up wearing exactly three square inches of fabric and, um, impregnating Kory with her “demon seed.” YIKES YIKES YIKES.) Honestly, considering that it’s 1993, it could have been a lot worse. Everything about this era is a mess.Īlso messy: Dick’s response to being assaulted and Kory’s subsequent anger at him for “cheating” on her (yikes yikes yikes) is to propose, so, honorable mention to Kory’s wedding dress: That’s not even getting into the starburst highlighting her vagina. Considering that the Titans spent multiple issues mocking Dick for being “tricked” (translation: sexually assaulted), I guess the fact that Kory chose to adopt Mirage’s version of her costume wasn’t the most tasteless thing happening in that era?Īnyway, no, I cannot explain how that thing is attached to her (this will be a trend with Kory) and it looks just wildly uncomfortable to wear. Well, actually, Kory didn’t decide to switch things up-this costume was designed by an illusionist called Mirage who disguised herself as Kory in order to sleep with Kory’s boyfriend, Dick Grayson. So at least it’s equal opportunity abject nonsense.įinally, all debates about whether or not it’s too sexy aside, it’s, like…pretty tacky, right? But it was 1980, everything was tacky.Īnyway, Kory wore this costume for over a decade before deciding to briefly switch things up: Plus, to be fair, this is also basically how male Tamaraneans dress, and every time the Titans go to Kory’s home planet, the boys all have to run around in panties and maybe a fancy collar the whole time. (We’re gonna have a little compare and contrast later.) It’s an objectively terrible costume, but I’m honestly fond of it when it’s drawn by Perez. She’s just having such a good time in it! And sure, her co-creator George Perez is on the record as saying that Kory “was made for any young male artist to enjoy,” but he gives her so much personality. And yet early Kory is such a joyful, free-spirited delight that I can’t really get mad about how eye-rollingly sexual this costume is.
