WARNING: Contains Potential Spoilers for Gotham City Sirens #2!The Gotham City Sirens have officially returned for a Wild West adventure, and along with their new shenanigans, Harley Quinn, Catwoman, and Poison Ivy are trading in their spandex and bustiers for rootin’ tootin’ cowgirl gear. While these in-narrative costumes capture the Wild West aesthetic perfectly, there’s one variant cover that elevates the trio from cowpoke cuties to YEE-HAWT showstoppers.
Fans seeking a spicier Wild West look for Harley, Ivy, and Selina will find it in Ben Harvey’s variant cover for
Gotham City Sirens
#1.
Leah Williams, Matteo Lolli, and Tríona Farrell’s Gotham City Sirens #2 thrusts Ivy, Harley, and Selina into a Wild West adventure, where they face a violent, illegal energy drink-sponsored hunting operation that endangers both wildlife and Gotham City’s residents.
This mini-series is particularly significant as it reunites the Gotham City Sirens for the first time in years, now with White Rabbit joining their ranks as they prepare to confront Alexis “Punchline” Kaye. The series also reinvents the anti-heroines with striking new cowgirl-inspired costumes, further shaking up the status quo.
Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and Catwoman Debut Their New Cowgirl Costumes in Gotham City Sirens #1
In Gotham City Sirens #2, Harley takes it upon herself to gather disguises for their mission to infiltrate Punchline’s base of operations. Staying true to Alexis’ Wild West theme, Harley selects cowgirl-themed outfits for herself, Ivy, and Selina. These costumes skillfully blend casual Western gear with each Siren’s distinctive aesthetic, making them both recognizable and unique. All three outfits feature typical Western elements like cowboy hats and boots, while still reflecting each Siren’s signature color scheme: Harley’s primarily in black and red, Ivy’s in green and earthy tones, and Selina’s predominantly in black.
The final result of the costumes is highly practical, paying tribute to the authentic cowboy culture that inspired them. Despite their practicality, fans are likely to have mixed reactions; some will find the Gotham City Sirens’ new look charming, while others may deem it outright goofy. Catwoman herself seems to lean towards the latter opinion. Upon seeing the costumes, Selina voices her thoughts, saying, “Harley, these ‘disguises’ are foul. Where did you get them?” To which Harley admits that she got them from her own closet, adding a touch of humor to the scene.

In Gotham City Sirens #2, Harley, Ivy, and Selina’s cowgirl costumes lean towards practicality and cuteness. However, fans seeking a spicier Wild West look will find it in Ben Harvey’s variant cover for Gotham City Sirens #1, which features the trio looking undeniably YEE-HAWT. Selina stands out with her black leather Western ensemble, complete with a large cat-shaped belt buckle and iconic goggles attached to her cowboy hat. Harley and Ivy’s looks are also striking: Harley sports a pink and black cowgirl outfit, while Ivy wears a dress that would suit a Wild West saloon owner. Which Wild West aesthetic do you prefer—Poison Ivy’s, Harley Quinn’s, or Catwoman’s?
