Stargirl is a member of the Outsiders. She is Courtney Whitmore, the television presenter of Stargirl.

Physical appearance[]

Courtney is a tall Caucasian woman with a slim body. She has blond hair and blue eyes, and has a small mole above the right side of her mouth.[3]

Her uniform comprises a red, white and blue ensemble. She dons a blue halter-top with long sleeves, running down slightly above her wrists, and matching skin-tight shorts with white stripes on the bottom hems and on the side. To hide her face she uses a domino mask that also covers her entire forehead. The suit has four stars sewn in: one on her forehead, another on each side of her arms, right below the shoulders, and a larger one on her chest. Finally, to complete her suit's Stars and Stripes motif, she wears red gloves with rolled cuffs, a matching belt with a round buckle and matching boots with white stripes around the bottom and the collar.
