10 Least Practical Super Villain Designs

9. Calypso

Kite Man
Marvel

As a Haitian vodou priestess, one might expect Calypso to wear some variation of a covering white blouse and skirt or dress. As would be more traditional for a mambo. Instead, Calypso based her outfit on a pared-down version of what Kraven the Hunter wears. For some reason still obsessed with her ex-lover who left her and then later committed suicide, she goes all in on mimicking Kraven's unique sense of style.

Calypso's outfit consists of a torn up leopard print loin cloth and what appears to be wide suspenders (but is probably some sort of hardly there halter top) ,with the face of a lion printed on it - its eyes strategically placed over her nipples.

Her outfit has the unfortunate quality of being so barely covering that when performing magic her ripped skirt is easily whipped up around her. This means she must be drawn in silhouette so as not to be fully flashing the readers.

Anyone in a scene with her would not be so lucky and is definitely getting an eyeful. Very impractical, but maybe the distraction works to her advantage?

West loves pop culture, movies, comics and TV-shows just as much as you do. Probably. Since you're reading this. Also, she has a cat. He's pretty awesome.
