    Speaking of those Global Guardians, a new version of Thunderlord could be neat. One that's less of a sonic blaster like Black Canary, and has more subtle uses for sonic powers, like being able to match the resonance frequency of something and *bolster* it (strengthening / healing the target), or emit a subsonic tone while fighting that disrupts the inner ear of other people so that they are off-balance and become nauseous, etc. (And yeah, still able to belt out the sonic attack, when necessary, although they find that a 'disharmonious' or 'inelegant' use of their powers, best saved for last resort.)

    This sounds an awful lot like Accomplished Perfect Physician.

    Catwoman, I think her sidekick/partner is the new Cheshire.
    My priority is black female characters; everything else is secondary.

    Oh wow, I did not know what his powers were, actually! That is similar. I guess I was tapping into the same well of pseudo-mystical harmonic resonance 'song of creation / vibrations of the universe' bullpuckey that the creator of APP was.

    There is a lack of asian male heroes and characters in general although I guess we can count the new Gotham mayor as a new asian male character.
    Well I totally forgot about Swamp thing who is a South Asian male character, although this is one of those instances where representation can be debated on considering he's a living plant thing now instead of a human character.

    That is probably Cass's best look.

    Bat-linked characters win polls.

    I'm hoping they tweak that for him.

    They didn’t win in the Latino or Black DC characters thread! Cass and Katana are the most popular Asian characters Dc has because they get the most usage
    Done with DC. Can't handle the constant whiplash! Time to go on a hiatus!

    I thought he was fine in the YA graphic novel.

    I think he's cool! And I'm all for the legacy hero as heritage hero character. And I think it's cool to get Vietnamese-American rep in the form of a superhero!

    I just wish he wasn't functionally confined to another universe that hasn't had word of a new graphic novel featuring him.
