Not to be overly critical, but aside from the costumes a lot of the superheroines in Metrobay are pretty much identical personality wise. You could render a lot of scenes with different characters, not changing the dialogue, and there'd be no significant difference. Oh, sometimes there's the odd one one (Omega Woman is supposed to have a temper, for instance), but that's often told and not actually seen.

I'm extremely happy someone has noticed this. I've made a very conscious effort to tell stories that simply could not be told with any other characters. For me, the story and characters HAVE to come first and every character has to have an important and critical role to play. They can't just be "there".

Sure, there's hot mind control, and there's definitely going to be more to come, but even that has to have a purpose or reason. It shouldn't exist for the sake of it, at least not for me. This entire story, along with my other ones, are tailored specifically to the characters within it, and that's what I hope makes them seem special. At least they feel special to me.

Trust me, I notice characterization and actual plot (I do a column on writing where I bitch about that constantly on another site under another name).
One of the problems in doing that is the medium of many of these stories. At one panel per page, there's only so much you can do, whereas something like Platinum Earth gives more freedom because more can go on per page. So I do bear that limitation in mind. On the other hand, as demonstrated here, it still can be done.

Now for a few questions.
1) you found a way to explain how knightfighter and her sidekick are now free from the mind control they were under what other heroines are now no longer on the stripper circuit? ( trying to remember the mother/sister team that was in recycler )
2) this isn't your series but will what's happening at the funhouse ever be found out and will erica be free once more?
3) what is shadow rider's power?
4) Does the events in requested ( where enchantress and sorceress become sex slaves to the professor) become before or after this story arc?
And finally now that daredoll is working for Lance harwood ( boo hiss) will the rest of the team (speed demons) ever find out what is going, oh wait roller girl is working for Max while she's at the office and who is kimberly? boy some many characters how do you keep them straight overload overload.....................
