Making superhero suits for the Incredibles that complements their superpowers as well as their abilities, Edna’s responsibilities also include looking after Jack-Jack, the Incredibles’ baby. And guess what? Jack-Jack also has superpowers. Imaging taking care of such a baby.
Not in the traditional sense of superheroes outfits, Edna’s costume is simple really.
