There’s not a ton of Kryptonians in the Studio, I don’t think, but there are a few. I don’t know for sure which ones this Subscriber had in mind, but I thought it’d be cute to see Lois with the Supergirl from a different universe.
With this Ask I wanted to go with someone who’s kinda in line with the types of villains Sailor Moon faces in her show, but is also completely removed from the genre. It’s a difficult balance to walk, but one I think provides the most interesting result, so I went with Demencia from Villainous. Demencia’s a character I always meant to do more with, and I think she makes a unique but interesting partner for Sailor Moon here as she explores the world of hero/villain play in the Studio.
Since it had been a minute since the last new Fusion, I decided to run a poll for one again. This time the poll was made of random characters from the Studio, using the same randomizer I use to select NHML winners. The result was a somewhat eclectic poll, but probably the two most similar characters in the poll won out.
This First Shoot poll was won by Gwen Stacy, specifically the one from the Spiderverse movies. Those films sit in a weird place for me, as there’s several characters I was interested in drawing from them, but a number of factors kept me from doing anything with them. I don’t think I’m comfortable talking about those factors here, but Gwen’s a popular character who’s getting to make her NHS debut now. I figured the most logical reaction from her to arriving in the Studio would be to fall back on her experience with hopping between dimensions, so that’s the angle I took.
