And here we see the Phantom Stranger's new look, and he's never been happier



Okay, I'm fibbing, it's the return of Black Alice!

What martial artist woman did she create?

Judomaster, who had no real purpose or personality other than spouting banter that could have easily fit a number of preexisting characters.

Judomaster is an ex-Charlton character they probably need to keep active (since they had Bane break the back of the original in Infinite Crisis). Onyx is already DC property, so is less of an issue.

They don't have to keep Charlton characters active since they own them outright. It's not like Superboy or Supergirl where they go back to Siegal's family if they're not in print. The issue is that instead of using a black woman who already had a history with the Bat family and Birds of Prey, they chose to have a generic Asian woman added to the already overcrowded field. It's a trend in Simone's work that I find problematic.

Thank you! I always have to surpress an over the top eyeroll when people demand the Simone' Judomaster back. That character was such an enormous cipher, nobody would have noticed any difference if it wasn't for the change in language.
