On both Sunday night's webcast and in Comic-Con coverage last week we noted that DC Comics has been teasing the inclusion of more Milestone Comics characters in their lineup. However, principals for Milestone Comics have been reported to know nothing about this. It'd be curious, then, to see what they think of this …
A sharp eyed reader, velcrochick, sent me the some very interesting images from SDCC. A set of playing cards designed for the CN Young Justice show. Sure they current cast is there. But these cards had some folks we haven’t seen yet. Including a particular DC female character that has long been speculated about joining the show.
Yes, that's Zatanna. It’s not a big surprise since we had seen her Dad Zatara was seen in some of the group shots. I had chatted with an artist from the show awhile back and that was the character they heavily implied might be joining.
And you also have Hugo Strange, Monsieur Mallah, Brain, Rocket, and Wolf. [emphasis added]
Rocket, as you may or may not know, is the superheroic alter ego of Dakota teenager Raquel Ervin. Could this teenaged Black heroine — wearing both a costume similar to Rocket's signature stylings and wearing a belt that looks like the inertia field projector from her appearances in Icon — be somebody else? Maybe. However, the whole think looks a little hinkety, n'est ce pas?
