In what I am sure is going to be one of the weirdest polls ever, I am stuck trying to figure out how Lady A's hair should be. As such I would like your votes please.

1] Short

2] Long+Ponytail

Image

3] Long and loose

Please cast your votes, I will run the poll for 1 week.

Long and Loose, but my favorite hairstyle so far was Darren Bulmer's.

One thought to keep in mind is this, an old GF of mine was a sword fighter, she used to bemoan the women who wore their hair loose in movies, since it would always in a fight get in their eyes. As Lady A is a consummate hand-to-hand fighter, I decided that was when she would wear her hair in a pony tail.

It was only about a year ago I found the original picture I had done (a tracing based on Fury from DC Comics Who's Who) back in 1988 that had her with short hair.

Here is that pic;

Overall I think the problem with the short hair is that while it is very 80s, it makes her too manish. The long and loose hair is good, but better when she was looking like Ms. Marvel;

Image

The long + ponytail seems to work the best over all, as you can see even braided in this Timm done by Dr. Cyclops for me;

Image

So while I am leaning towards long + ponytail, I really am torn since they ALL look good...

* she just looks good ;)

All the hair styles look good. I like Bulmer's long and ponytail style just a bit more. I will add that really short hair is an advantage in a fight as an opponent can't grab it and use it against her (but this doesn't really matter much in a four-colors comic setting).

I must confess the Long + Ponytail is growing on me as well. Combines the best of both worlds.

Arrrggghhhh.... need more input... paralyzed with option!

Dead heat for long + ponytail and long & loose!

Neat, unless we see a flux in voting, it would appear short is a very subjective taste.

My thought is that the real choices are short and long. If her hair is long, then she can choose to wear it in a pony-tail or loose or braided, depending on mood.

Seems long + ponytail has eeked out a small lead.

Interesting.
