Why does he want it out only for a little while? Why is he gonna take it back off? Whats the point of that?

Huntress's costume was redesigned by Jim Lee for the Hush storyline in Batman. While the costume is sort of an homage to the original Pre-Crisis version ... the redesign wasn't met with much fanfair ... as a matter of fact VERY few people like it for various reasons (myself included) so when Gail Simone and Ed Benes took over BOP they got permission to either tweek the current exisiting version or take it back to the previous version.

Good, I liked the old one. Plus it was much more suited for crime fighting.

I agree DB ... especially when you think that Huntress was shot 4 or 5 times in the gut by the Joker during No Man's Land ... the only thing that saved her then was the woven kevlar in her costume ... exposing her mid-rift might be sexy ... but when your a crime fighter focusing against the mob .. its not really too smart or too practical.

I thought he emptied a whole clip at her, but I'll take your word for it 3 4 or 5 it still doens't change my point that the new costume is useless.

I have to join in with the BoP love. I'm totally digging Simone and Bene's work. And Huntress' costume suh-diddly-ucks, and I normally like Lee's work but this was a total misfire.
