Jumping back to the 80s/90s Beat-em-up theme, here’s a little shoot featuring Capcom’s Poison. Designed by Akira Yasuda for Capcom, her debut appearance was in 1989’s arcade release of Final Fight, but later went on to cross-over into the Street Fighter games.

Here she’s shown in her original outfit on the iconic Final Fight stage 2 subway, where she made her first appearance as a street-fighting punk-styled member of the Mad Gear gang. (Ironically her lesser known pallete-swap buddy Roxy appeared before her on the first stage.)

She recently had a redesign for her appearance in Street Fighter V, but her 80s punk-inspired original appearance is still pretty iconic!
