Cosplay artist Hoodie shows why Stargirl is the most underrated powerhouse in the DC Universe and deserves a more prominent role in the comics.
She’s had her own TV show and is currently starring in her own comic series, but Stargirl is still vastly underrated when compared to other DC Comics heroes. Recent cosplay from Hoodie, however, shows off precisely why Courtney Whitmore should be one of DC’s top characters.
Shared via Instagram, Hoodie’s work perfectly captures the teenaged superhero in all of her bubbly, cheerful essence. Everything from the gloves to the mask to the boots are recreated in comic-accurate detail, but perhaps most impressive is Hoodie’s work in recreating Stargirl’s Cosmic Staff. The cosplayer nails the funky aesthetic of the original design, resulting in an amazing prop that looks like it was ripped straight from the comic book page.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Cosplayer Hoodie Brings Stargirl to Life Perfectly Created in 1999 by Geoff Johns and Lee Moder, Courtney Whitmore was originally a modern-day iteration of the Golden Age superhero Star-Spangled Kid. When she discovered that her stepfather Pat Dugan is actually the former Kid’s sidekick Stripesy, she decides to become a hero of her own.
Courtney Whitmore's Star is Rising Stargirl has made the jump to other media, being played in live-action by three different actors, including Brec Bassinger in her own self-titled series starting in 2020. Yet in spite of her heightened profile in various comic adaptations, Stargirl has kept a relatively low profile for a while now in the comics from which she originally sprung.
Hopefully, this new series and excellent cosplay like Hoodie’s will keep Stargirl in the upper echelon of the DC Universe, where she belongs.
