cereta, I believe it was, started the character love meme. And it feels like my fandom could use some love currently, so I'm bringing it back.
Give me a character (hopefully a character you know I've at least heard of, and preferably like!). I will give you at least 100 words about why I love that character, and then give *you* a character, so you can tell me why you love *them*. (Unless I owe you from the previous iteration of the meme, in which case you get a freebie.)

Date: 2006-03-02 11:49 pm (UTC)In all seriousness, I have trouble with this one, because historically (as with a lot of female, and indeed male, characters) her characterization has been a bit...variable. However! She's a strong woman who can fight in high heels and fishnet stockings (and when Barry Allen commented, she *rotated his mask around his face*), who deals competantly *and* generally good-naturedly with the irresponsible men around her (and their offspring), and who has *never* become the extention of a male hero. (Even Ollie, as long as she appeared primarily in his book or feature.)
She's also the link between two generations (well, after a few retcons...); the favored child of the JSA become one of the founders of the JLA. She knows *everyone*, and they all know and generally like and respect her.
