dc alphabet from february? i think

Characters: Animal Man, Batman (Jace), Creeper, Deadman, Eternity Girl, Fastbak, Gotham Girl, Huntress, Iolande, Jack O’Lantern, Kid Eternity, Leander, Miracle Molly, Nightshade, Orpheus, The Question, Pantha, Rebis, Steel (Natasha), Tasmanian Devil, Ursa Major (Tam Fox), Vengeance, Wyldheart, Xanthe, Yankee Poodle, Zatanna

They were chosen based on the first character I thought of that started with each letter, so I got to draw a few characters who arent on my usual roster. With the exception of U, where i passed over Ultra the Multi-Alien (who would be better for a full-body picture) for the non-canon Ursa Major identity of Tam Fox from the new 52 valentines special.

Miracle Molly custom. (Clothes in progress).

I haven’t read anything containing her yet, and I’m not particularly motivated to, but the look is so good. Might touch up the eyes a little.

Mary Kowalski AKA 'Miracle Molly'

Based on 'Miracle Molly' from Batman comics

Before she was Miracle Molly, Mary Kowalski worked within the Helios Robotics, marrying Matsuda sometime earlier in her life. In the present, Mary had fallen into a seemingly never-ending spiral of banality, her ideas often outright ignored or rejected, and her love life falling short of anything she truly wished for despite her genius Nevertheless, at night, she often listens to Master Wyze's message of Unsanity. Though finding solace within his words, she keeps up her life despite everyone else's urging to forget her dreams and settle down.

Interrupting a meeting, Mary pitches her ideas, but is promptly fired and her ideas stolen. Later, attempting to steal them back, she is caught on camera and forced to run. With nowhere else to run and seeing what her life has become, Mary reaches out to Master Wyze. Embracing the Collective, she wipes her mind of the past and dons the new identity of Miracle Molly. Now, with cybnetic implants and green hair and an 80's like neon clothing style, Molly helps those find their true selves.

Ok positive thoughts about fear state

I actually liked it (besides tom taylor's cringe writing but like :P that's guaranteed)

it was like how events are "supposed" to be in my opinion. like if you read all gazillion tie-ins* you see how effective various bat-allies and batfam members are at working against the bad guy's plan - watching selina's plan is especially fun. and you get like hey the fact that they're working together is actually helping things and not just selling more comics.

the random backstory issues (for miracle molly, gardener, and peacekeeper) were also pretty good at fleshing out the new characters involved in the stories, especially establishing peacekeeper as a villain, so i think they added to the title pretty well.

a missed opportunity is i feel like the fact that simon saint is using for his peacekeeper guys cybernetically-augmented disabled people, and the unsanity collective augmenting their recruits with cybernetics that they want, could be used to better effect. The unsanity collective is very into transhumanism, but they generally are portrayed as able bodied people who chose to augment themselves with cybernetics for part of their new identities. whereas the people simon saint targets are people who were disabled and he offers to pay for all their prosthetics and medical care if they let him turn them into his minions. there's one hand: obviously simon is up to no good, he's a tech-start-up-bro who wants you to sell your body to him for medical care. but the fact that generally the main characters in the unsanitary collective are able bodied who choose cybernetics seems strange to me.

(you also have some accidental commentary DC created, where the perceived awfulness of a disabled life is part of how Simon gets recruits, but DC still puts Babs out there as able bodied batgirl, with one or two lines about "oh she has to be careful because of her spine implants" but 0 actual changing of her actions)

anyway besides that

khoa is fun, of course, and his banter when bruce is getting him to go into his brain is also fun :P gay shit.

the ending especially got to me, where Molly is debating going through on a variant of Scarecrow's plans because of how she has seen the city steadily get worse, and how her own way to process the helplessness she felt in her previous life was to erase her memory and start from scratch, and Bruce showed her the way that the tide was changing (and how much hard work the batfam and allies put in to do this) and talked her down. i'm a sucker for that.

*can't comment for just main event b/c i didn't only read main event :p

I’ll never get over how Jon was on the brink of unconsciousness here and despite that Molly decided to use enough force to knock a fully uninjured and thriving man out because she was so sick of him
