| Re: Season 2 - Basura Love. The. Outfit. The power description is a bit lame... but who cares if that's the outfit she's wearing! Except... parts of it are a bit gross. Bugs are bad enough, but it also invokes piles of garbage. Also, this is the 2nd hero here who's synopsis mentions sweating. Weird. And unsettling.

| Re: Season 2 - Basura That's one SUPER push-up bra. Her look obviously needs some tweaking. The ring through the nose works for an artist but not a superhero. It seemed to me that her helping the old lady was sparked by seeing Hygenia do so first. I think she saw that and then deduced that it was part of the challenge. To me that means she has less of a real instinct to help people, but it does give her extra points for cleverness.

| Re: Season 2 - Basura I don't understand where she got that name from. |

| Re: Season 2 - Basura "Basura" is the Spanish word for "garbage." I think her superhero persona assembled the costume from the trash, has a secret lair in the dump, is a friend of roaches, etc. She's Hobocop + Joe's Apartment + sex appeal, basically. | |

| Re: Season 2 - Basura This might be just me, but she reminds me of one of the people Ross the Intern interviewed when they did the "Tonight Show" bit. I remember thinking the same with Monkey Woman in the first season. But, that might be just me. As far as Basura, I like her, but she's not one of my top favorites, at least yet. I think her costume looks great and the gloves add to the outfit, even if it's to hide sweaty hands. |

| Re: Season 2 - Basura She has two custom costumes? When she came out, the costume Stan designed for her has shorts with thigh high boots. |
