If that's not poor role modeling I don't know what is.<br /><br />Superman is a very decent person. In and out of the cape. (at least in most versions of him) but he he avoids most press and spectacles. <br /><br />Batman not a so wholesome, but he is all about justice. He avoids all publicity.<br /><br />Now Buster Gold. Comes back from the future with advanced tech and future files. Uses that knowledge to stop crimes and save people, all the make himself super famous. He's not normaly considered a bad person. Just an egotistical jack off. He does a good job of saving people but he does it for all the wrong reasons.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543933983633475898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633538053933355058.post-15972996227368838412016-01-11T14:25:34.745-08:002016-01-11T14:25:34.745-08:00In this version of L.A.

I do believe it was mentioned before about him being the wholesome, goody goody type.<br />But with the fighting style of Batman. Extensive training in all forms of combat, and lots of gadgets. <br />I just picture someone who plays to the cameras a lot. Defeats the giant man eating octopus rampaging through downtown, turns to a group of kids and say "Remember Kids stay in school and don't do drugs." Smiles and there is a lens flare off his perfectly white perfect smile.<br /><br /><br />As for what power Marcia could/should get the possibilities are endless and the odds are even across the board.

I'm thinking my picture isn't going to turn out to be <em>right</em> on the money.<br /><br />Still, it's hard to imagine a girl who favors "sparkly pink" would find "hide in the shadows" appealing. That sort of aesthetic would also conflict with a Punisher skull-theme, but I suppose it could be adapted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633538053933355058.post-21967310941625891602016-01-10T07:00:44.061-08:002016-01-10T07:00:44.061-08:00Pre-ordered and looking forward to it!Pre-ordered and looking forward to it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17234237040118974171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633538053933355058.post-17930252297958893722016-01-09T16:45:23.413-08:002016-01-09T16:45:23.413-08:00Yeah but she just got showed up big time, as near ...Yeah but she just got showed up big time, as near as we can tell the Original is a green arrow type character - all hide in the shadows and stuff so it would suite her skill set to play "Now you see me, now you don't" with her pray.<br /><br />Regardless, out of the kids we met so far I think Marcia is the most likely to go off the deep end.

That's the recipe for a villain. In fact, that could be the recipe for the out-of-control, scenery-chewing-monster sort of villain, which I suppose <em>would</em> be consistent with "lost her mind". <br /><br />I guess I've been hoping for some kind of redemption story for her.
