Green Lantern: Along with the Flash, this is one of the best silver age costumes. Nothing fancy, nothing crazy, just a great, clean design. The white gloves add style and a touch of class. The mask is unique as it molds to the contour of his face and covers his nose. Great colors, great design. And what a great piece of jewelry, his power ring!

I have to say, Wonder Woman's costume hs never done much for me. I prefer the original, Golden Age costume with the skirt, but even that isn't really one of my favorites. I do like the images here of WW with a cape, though.
Batman & Green Lantern are both very good costumes, especially Batman. I grew up with the yellow in the chest insignia, so that's my Batman, though it's probably in fact better, or more practical anyway, without it.

#2 Black Canary, The Blonde Bombshell Alter Ego - Dinah Lance First Appearance Flash Comics #86 (August 1947) Golden, Silver, and Bronze Ages Costume Features that I like the mostFunctional, Sexy, Classy Jacket, and Modern Belt makes it a winner! Loved the Boots, Fishnets Stockings, and most of all it's all tailored for crime-fighting that she does best. I like simple costumes and this one is the best of the best. It's best features is the two-tone blue. Note: She wears a choker for ornamentation purposes.

Hold on a second! That picture of Canary's blonde hair growing to an amazing length makes no sense! Wasn't she naturally dark haired, but wore a blonde wig as a disguise?

Black Canary's look is very cool. The bustier, the jacket, the fishnets. She is very sexy in a classy way. I enjoyed the silver age stories where she was teamed up with Starman and Wildcat. Murphy Anderson drew her in a very dignified, stylish way. She really looked good when drawn by Neal Adams in GL/GA. Also by Dick Dillin in JLoA. I don't care for her Post Crisis looks, except for a couple of looks she had in Birds of Prey. I miss the days when she was a florist and dated Green Arrow.

That's true and unfortunately I downloaded that picture from the internet four years ago and unable to find it and I do remember it from JLA #47 - but you are right she was naturally dark haired and wore a blonde wig to disguise herself. I tried for the past few hours searched for any pictures and/or information about that picture that I posted and with no luck finding it. |

That's from one of the first comics I ever bought, so I remember it well--the Anti-Matter man was screwing with the JLA/JSA members, so it was just as likely that he could make her wig grow as giving the Flash huge feet (which he did). |

Ohh, I remember that one, now! It irritated me, as I recall. The Anti-Matter Man initially shows no sign of actually having hostile intent (it's implied that he doesn't realize he's about to cause carnage) but the heroes still set off gleefully intending to fight him, there's never any discussion about maybe trying to actually communicate with him instead! Not very heroic, in my opinion... |

I'll add Nick Cardy to your fine list of Dinah delineators. Here she is sans blonde wig in The Brave and the Bold #91 from 1970.  And of course the cover is a classic.  |

Wonderful write-up and great pictures of Black Canary, Mecha. Well done!  Note: She wears a choker for ornamentation purposes. Her choker's amulet is more than decorative. I have not read her Golden Age stories so I don't know if it was always part of her arsenal, but in the 1960s JLA-JSA crossover stories and the story with Starman in the Bold and the Beautiful, her amulet seems to function as a mini-utility belt. She was frequently whipping out things from it such as freezing pills, paralysis powder, etc., to use in the heat of battle. |

Alex Toth also had an amazing couple-issue Black Canary run. |
