I had a lot of fun with this on twitter, so I just kept on going with it. But you know, I'm always kind of touched by how strongly fans support their favourite characters, and there is a lot of love for Cloak and Dagger, and you can see why because there are some pretty great things about that pair. But that costume, come on, it's a big old slice of tit window pie. They don't always dress Dagger like that, but yeah they mostly do! But they probably won't on the tv show!

I didn't dwell on Cloak very much in a comic about tit windows, but, here's something. I tweeted this essay a while ago when I read it, but Cloak's lack of a body really brought it to mind again, and you should totally read it, though mostly it is about the character Cyborg, it is relevant here too:

Humanity Not Included: DC's Cyborg and the Mechanization of the Black Body by Robert Jones, Jr.
