DC Comics
is home to a slew of iconic female heroes who rival their male counterparts in popularity, power levels, and overall badassness, with characters like Batgirl, Black Canary, and Starfire having recognizable superhero designs that fans can’t get enough of. In new fanart featuring these characters and more, DC’s best women heroes get a loungewear makeover that shows them finally taking a moment for themselves, with the need for retail versions of their sleepwear redesigns needing to become buyable merch as soon as possible.
Conveniently collected into one post on Reddit’s r/DCcomics channel, Alexandra-Jane (@ghostpainters_real) is a creator looking to make her “passion a career,” with Alexandra-Jane’s consistent drip of fanart content helping to make that goal a reality with every new piece.
Recently sharing images featuring characters hailing from across the nerd spectrum, Alexandra-Jane’s latest project sees her giving the members of the Teen Titans a 1980s-inspired set of character posters that put a casual time period-specific spin on these popular heroes, showing the range of Alexandra-Jane’s talent as each new design is a full-on fashion statement in and of itself.

For fans looking to expand their love of their favorite DC heroes outside of comics, unique merch ranging from sleepwear to t-shirts to jackets to shoes to clothing accessories and more, are always releasing in stores, with each new item showing the fashion potential of DC’s best heroes — especially those who already have a sense of fashion to begin with. Already looking better than most male characters on their worst day, DC’s female crew of vigilantes find ways to mesh style with power and grace, giving fans more than enough options should they ever choose to cosplay as these heroes.

Batgirl’s Controversial New Costume Is Returning With a Badass Update
Cassandra Cain’s Batgirl recently received a controversial fanart costume, with an update to it making it the balanced design Cass needs to wear next.
Illustrating nine different characters dressed in a variety of non-superhero clothing, Alexandra-Jane starts things with Barbara Gordon’s Batgirl, Kara Danvers’ Supergirl, and Dinah Lance’s Black Canary as they get ready for a superhero sleepover, complete with an overnight bag, pair of headphones, and character-specific accessory. Next, sketching Raven, Blackfire, Starfire, Zatanna, Artemis, and Miss Martian all with their own versions of these items, Alexandra-Jane draws some heroes wearing a rejuvenating facemask or sleep mask, with each wardrobe choice tailored to their specific superhero motif and costume that adds an extra layer of nerdiness to the merch potential of these designs.
Fans Can Replicate These Looks at a Low Cost
Furthermore, these looks are so simple and effective that cosplayers who can’t afford to go all in on crafting intricate comic-accurate costumes can easily replicate them, making these designs even more important to the fan community. It shouldn’t be hard to find a pair of Batman pajamas or a Superman onesie that can be thrown on to comfortably read a graphic novel or two in, with the stylish but casual DC Comics designs Alexandra-Jane (@ghostpainters_real) creates here being the exact kind of merch that would not only do these characters justice but make fans look good while wearing them.
