Strange Comic Trends: Fishnets Times Two

Posted on August 20, 2015 by

The history of fishnets in the medium of comics is an often bizarre one, and can be traced to their popularity and perception in fashion. In their earliest days, they were often associated with activities that were considered scandalous, not even necessarily through prostitution, but simply as part of a forbidden dress code. When the character of Black Canary was first introduced, she was shown sporting the form of hosiery, not particularly effective in crimefighting, but also speaking to the influences of her character, that of a femme fatale, who could dish out a punch to those that mistook her appearance for something else. For a long time Black Canary was the only character that ever wore them. Black stockings were common enough at one point in the medium through romance comics, but these were often shown as a sequence of bluish Ben Day dots as opposed to a true black. It was hard to show female hosiery in any detail and so artists tended to stay away from it. Zatanna came along and her most common costume featured fishnets, even when she sported various other versions. Incidentally so too did Black Canary wear other versions of a costume and had even done away with the fishnets after the Birds of Prey reboot of the character in the 1990s.

At some point though fishnets became part of popular fashion, or at least gained the respect that they could be worn without a stigma attached to them. Instead of a forbidden accessory they now represent edginess or being a little bit different from the pack. Even then though, it is a rarity to see any comic characters wearing them. They are still common enough on Black Canary and Zatanna, and two Grimm Fairy Tales characters also wear them often (The Queen of Spades and Liesel Van Helsing). Strangely in recent years they have also been a common enough accessory of Veronica Lodge at Archie Comics, but this week’s double release of two character from two different companies wearing fishnets on covers might be the first time that it has happened in comic book history (especially considering the numerous variant covers with Liesel all wearing the same). Although they have been around since the 1940s, they have never really caught on as a stylistic element of most characters’ costumes, and so seeing them twice on the same release day is truly an anomaly.

Who’s Afraid of the Dark?

Posted on April 23, 2014 by

YES! I called it!! I should explain a little. A few months ago (on my criminally under-listened podcast), I made a prediction. Given the direction DC Collectibles was heading with some of their releases for 2014, we’d be seeing some Justice League Dark figures soon. Today… confirmed! The DC solicitations for July showcased two new figures to look forward to: John Constantine and Zatanna.

Constantine

Zatanna

I couldn’t be happier to see these figures. I’ve always loved Zatanna; other than Dr. Fate, she’s my fav DC magic user. She’s been just as good in the New52 as she was in the Pre52. They’ve added some depth to her character and her “relationship” with Constantine has been great to read about. I’m not 100% sold on her face sculpt, but there’s still time for this to improve.

Constantine, on other hand, is near perfection. What an amazing figure we’re getting! The loose tie, unbuttoned collar, and smirk are character-perfect. Just add a little stubble to that baby face, and he’s a grand slam. Also, check the left hand. Aside from the cool rolled up sleeve, it does look like he’s holding a cigarette in his hand. Will Constantine come with a sculpted cigarette between his fingers, or is it simply a “spell casting” gesture? Either way, with that level of articulation, he’ll be puffing away on a smoke even if I have to make it myself. DC looks to be giving each character points of articulation that make sense, as opposed to giving every possible joint to everyone.

John Constantine and Zatanna will be available this October at your local comic book store.
