SS: DOOM!

I'm glad Star Sapphire is being featured more lately, even if it is in roles that may not be right for her.  Regardless, she's getting better known, and once again it's...

Star Sapphire Saturday!

So the trailer for the new Justice League: DOOM was previewed at CCNY last week and our favorite violet starlet is featured as GL's nemesis. This takes me back to those days as a kids watching the Challenge of the Superfriends. I always loved the episodes that dealt with the Legion of Doom.

Now, Going just from the trailer, I'm a little confused why the chose SS as GL's counterpart.  Don't get me wrong, I'm very excited to see her, especially sporting the slightly risque, modified, Ivan Reis-designed Blackest Night outfit. However, Sapphire's fight has always been motivated by, driven by, fueled by love.  I hardly see a monetary carrot being the appropriate bait for her to want to destroy GL and the rest of the Justice League.  This fight is more about hatred.  Maybe they should have called in Atrocitous instead.

Despite that, I'm glad she's getting out there into more mainstream venues.  Maybe someday she'll get a book or a movie of her own (yes, I keep saying that). Until next week...

Love conquers all with violet light!
