** ''ComicBook/PowerGirl'': DependingOnTheArtist or [[DependingOnTheWriter Writer]], Peeg herself often does this in her civilian identity, at least to some extent, wearing turtlenecks that, at least, still outline her chest (and in fact, its often lampshaded that it would be ''impossible'' to hide this figure) but [[AmazonianBeauty obscure the fact she's also almost as jacked as her cousin]]. She isn't as consistent with this as Clark or Kara, however, and at least once has had someone figure out her secret identity for blackmail purposes because she failed to properly hide her identity.

When he's shown without his jacket, however, there's no mistaking him as the clone of Superman, as he's built line a linebacker. In the 2000s, this was averted, as he not only ditched the jacket just for a tight T-shirt that drew attention to his physique (which became even more ripped, with him becoming both taller and broader), but his civilian wear tended to do little to obscure this either

** Played straight with Allan-a-Dale, who appears at first glance to be a rather slim, unassuming guy no bigger than the other outlaws. But when him, Robin, Will, and Mulch are tied up, for some reason Allan was also stripped, and showed a rather jacked physique, which is odd given he was a simple conman whereas Robin and Mulch had just returned from war and Will was used to working farms. Inverted with everyone else, and apparently ''why'' only Allen was shirtless as [[WordOfGod supposedly]], his actor was the only one who'd had the sense to hit the gym before the series; the actors playing Robin and the others weren't particularly buff, but that wouldn't be very logical for an archer who'd just returned from the Third Crusades, so they kept him covered up to not draw attention to it.
** Strangely played with Marian and Jaq, in a HiddenBuxom way that isn't remotely hidden; both characters attempt SweetPollyOliver disguises, with Jaq outright passing herself off as a guy to everyone besides the other Outlaws while Marian having essentially a superhero alter-ego as the Nightwatchman that everyone assumes is a man. Supposedly, in-universe, [[PaperThinDisguise these disguises fool everyone]], except the outfits they wear are still tailored to feminine figures (they're just wearing coats, with Jaq even leaving her coat open so that her form-fitting shirt can be seen underneath, while Marian avoids any extra padding to obscure her frame), so the audience can plainly identify them both as women. Its a case of this outfit being entirely informed.
