It's really tiring the amount that the right wing inserts their politics into every fucking discussion on these forums.
Sarah Connor, Buffy, Scully, Dax, Uhura, Ellie from The Last of Us, Saavik, Ripley, Kes, Princess Leia, Princess Amidala, Lara Croft, Hoshi Sato, Rukia Kuchki, Hinata Hyuga, Orihime, Bulma, Froppy, Yuna, Selphie Tilmett, Rikku.

Just a small selection of my favourite female characters that I have zero problem with. So kindly fuck you, fuck off, and actually read the content of my posts before telling me what I think. Thank you.
We used to argue whether Star Trek or Star Wars was better. Now we argue which one is worse.

What about Etta Candy?

And wait, is there particular reasoning that Leia's not on it. Was it just assumed, or is it a listing aesthetic?
Power laces... alright.

On topic: this looks alright if a bit teeny-bopper. It feels like they're skewing a bit younger with this one.
DC Comics (as opposed to Vertigo) have always been geared for a teenage audience. As older consumers, it is worth remembering that - we can watch them, but they might not cater to us.
Honestly, even a lot of the mainline stuff skews more for the 17+ sect. It's the still lingering ripples from the Dark Age, probably. If you want the 'definitely for kids' books, you'll want the Wonder Comics imprint,

Didn't say kids, said teenagers. The Dark Age was all about teenagers, and it's still right there.

I really do plan to watch this show. I plan to schedule it in after I"m done with Young Justice season 3, conveniently on the same channel.
