    I do wish Linda got more love. Whenever I see those DC couples focused variants and artwork, it's almost never Wally and Linda despite being one of the strongest romantic pairings in their entire history. And that ends up reflecting even moreso on the fanart.

    Fun fact about her, LaRocque modeled her off of his own wife when creating her, who is Fillipino instead of Korean. Linda wasn't supposed to be this long term, major love interest at first so you can take more liberties with minor characters, but I think that shows very heavily in LaRocque's art during WML and Waid's tenure.

    Interesting. Do you happen to have a link to that?

    One more thing she has in common with MJ Watson.

    Honestly I need to take a picture of or archive this, this is gonna be one of those little tidbits lost to history one day once this link rots. LaRocque was very happy with Waid's characterization of her, too, because apparently it matches a Filipina wife lol.
