I looked her up to get background on the costumes, and this made me laugh. "She has had a series of on-again, off-again romances with Roy Harper (Speedy/Arsenal) and two marriages: one to college professor Terry Long, with whom she had a son (both deceased), and one to Coeus, god of the moon"
I mean... Gotta love the comics world. If your first marriage doesn't work out marry a fucking GOD.
I like it! Lately I've been feeling pretty frustrated with how her character has changed in the comics. Bring back the smart tank, DC!
Also, looking at this picture, I was briefly like, "Wait, that's clearly a double-sided sword, why isn't it cutting into her sho-- OH RIGHT INVULNERABILITY". XD
Lol yeah I don't think they'll ever let Cassie go back to black, but you know? If they gotta have tons of blondes, there's ways to make them still look like their own characters.
I think you hit the nail on the head with "interchangeable mid-length"... Artists, we are in fact allowed to give girls different cuts even if one can only draw one sexyface. We live in a world where Pam Anderson and Ellen DeGeneres are not even close to their respective extremes on the style spectrum.
(Although obviously yes, I'd like comics to show more variety in complexion/body type/hair color/style in general, but there's still a lot of wiggle room in the "work with what you got" side of the argument. Any action that introduces some variety is gonna be positive in this case.)
I feel like Jaime, and also Supergirl for that matter, would both be support in an actual battle and scouting out of it. (Miss Martian might join them for scouting?)
They're kind of Swiss army knives in terms of abilities, and they're soooo overpowered, shit would get really boring if they just jumped in front all the time. You know? Support opens the door for them to use their powers more creatively than "JAIME BLOW UP HIS FACE AGAIN." But at the same time it'd be logical for a leader to send them into places first because they're least likely to get surprised by something that can actually fuck with them.
And this is gonna sound terrible but I don't really want Jaime to graduate to the JLI party. I love JLI from the bottom of my shriveled heart, but muh boy is way more fun when he's dealing with other teens. And JLI is really adult at last check...? IDK IDK
IDK how you got this perfect mix of ADORABLE and BADASS but you did??? She looks like she can and will hand goblins/baddies their asses but she also looks so .. precious omg lol ;____; I LOVE this design, a LOT. It's so whimsical but very easy to take seriously, like it can fit in almost any environment, and I am sitting here wondering why they haven't really gone with this motif before??

Omg don't get me started on bad fashion in comic books. Thank god we have Cliff Chiang, Joe Quinones and Marcos Martin plus ~all the ladies~ working or it'd be bleak. For real.

Ew, when did she marry Coeus? And what did his wife think of that?

...So if she's the tank and Static's the mage, what's Jaime? (Or has he been officially graduated to the JLI Party?) :D
