Young Justice: Targets #1 - "Cherry Gig"

[laughing_tree]

We decided early on, that although we were borrowing the Young Justice title, we were not adapting the Young Justice comic. Rather we were adapting the entire DC Universe through the eyes of its young heroes. -- Greg Weisman and Brandon Vietti

I love that the whole line of Harper clones went into business together... and then hired a shapeshifter that can resemble them as well.

The next logical step in their employment policies is obviously hiring anyone who looks like Roy.

I like to imagine they all have the same employee ID photo.

The "Employee of the Month" wall is basically a gallery of photocopies

Now I'm just thinking of the mirrored Time magazine "Person of the Year" cover.

Except for the one that looks like Jimmy Olsen.

Great artwork in this issue. Good to to see Bowhunter Security again in this one. I’m interested to know how Clayface got started working with this gang.

I do mildly wonder if Roy's enhanced beardedness is, aside from distinguishing him from Will, a reference to Flashpoint's Roy, who also had a beard.
Ordinarily, this wouldn't be a line of inquiry worth considering, but given it's Young Justice, there's some room for it.
(Unless there's some other instance of Roy with facial hair out there / it really is just a way of making Roy and Will look different and nothing more.)

Kingdom Come's Roy was basically Green Arrow (down to the beard) with a pallete swap.

Winick's Outsiders era Roy had a soul patch, or general face fuzz a lot of the time, but not full beardedness.
