Princess Shark, a humanoid shark-woman in a dress resembling a squid or octopus. Sharks are falling from the sky in the city behind her. "Metropolis will soon become Sharkopolis! It is inevitable!" Art by Sophie Campbell

Princess Shark in a pink top with a triangle symbol on the chest with a stylized emblem resembling the shark on the JAWS poster. Her skirt and shoulder pads look like jellyfish parts. She's holding a giant Anime sword that looks like it's made from a huge shark tooth. She's standing on two flying hammerhead sharks. "...Princess Shark! I have come in search of Supergirl, so that I may reap what she has sewn -- vengeance." Art by Paulina Ganucheau

Princess Shark is the character find of 2025!

An action figure for the Batman: The Animated Series line. "Anti-Freeze Batman, with Firing Shield / Blaster"

I realize my #AestheticNotCostume hobbyhorse is straight-up advocating for this sort of thing, but, dammit, superheroes having different costumes for different occasions is cool!

Poison Ivy has a bunch of different, and cool-looking, outfits. #AestheticNotCostume

Compilation of Wonder Woman Earth One costumes that include trousers.

I'm seeing people say Wonder Woman with pants never works. I disagree. I love some of her outfits in Wonder Woman Earth One.

But that's another example of none of them being "the" costume she wears. The benefits of #AestheticNotCostume

John Astin Riddler's goons in black scuba suits. John Astin Riddler himself is wearing a black scuba suit with a large green question mark logo across the front.

I'm counting John Astin Riddler's custom scuba suit as #AestheticNotCostume

Pussycat in a blue leotard with a pink bowtie and pink cat ears.

Ah shit, she's wearing a different colour and cut of costume! #AestheticNotCostume

The Minstrel in a blue medieval-style costume with slashes of green colour on the front.

I like that the Minstrel has different outfits. #AestheticNotCostume

Gorshin famously felt self-conscious in the leotard and asked to have an alternate costume to wear in some scenes, leading to the suit and bowler hat look - not controversial to say variations on it are Riddler's best look. Also a prime example of my #AestheticNotCostume hobbyhorse.
