Dwayne Mcduffie was awesome. I was devastated when he passed.

Yes. I think he was a great loss to the industry and had more to give. Maybe these characters will continue to live on giving him some well deserved immortalityΒ

Only if I can think of something to do with her. I get bored drawing the same characters over and over.

This is pretty hot.
I only wish they would have had an episode where they actually show her joining the team.

True....I thought she was just hanging out with Icon.....didn't realize she was staying. That's cool, but some story would have been good.

She is (I believe) a supporting character from the DC Milestone comic line from the late 80s-90s. It was a line of comics featuring black heroes. Sadly it did not survive...but it is nice to see these characters are still allowed to exist in the DC universe

I am familiar with the Milestone imprint, as it gave birth to characters like Icon and most notably, Static. Do you know what her powers/abilites are?

Powers
All of Rocket's superhuman powers derive from the inertia winder installed in her belt buckle. This device is one of two from Icon's escape pod, the other is installed in Hardware's current suit of armor. When activated, the inertia winder surrounds Rocket in an "inertia field," which absorbs, stores, and redirects any kinetic energy used against it. This field protects her from anything invested with kinetic energy: physical blows, bullets, falls, falling debris, etc. The inertia field normally extends a few inches from Rocket's body, but she can expand the field to much greater sizes. She once enclosed a crowd of about 50 people within her field without it losing its durability.
Rocket is able to project stored energy in blasts usually from her hands over a distance, causing great damage depending on the amount of energy she uses. She can also fly by releasing the stored kinetic energy beneath her, launching her skyward. She is particularly skilled in this ability, able to perform complex aerial maneuvers and hover by controlling the amount of energy released. Rocket has also learned to how to use her inertia winder to surround her opponents in an "inertialess field" which negates any kinetic energy within it down to the molecular level, effectively immobilizing them. Some opponents even fall unconscious because the field can prevent oxygen molecules from reaching their lungs.
Other uses of his field includes imbuing objects with large amounts of kinetic energy when thrown increasing their speed, effectively allowing her to throw rocks at the speed of bullets. Alternatively she can release this energy when she throws a punch delivering enough shock force to stagger beings as powerful as Icon if she uses a high enough amount.
Rocket's inertia field has certain weaknesses due to its very nature. The field will not activate if a person or object exerts little kinetic energy against it. This makes Rocket vulnerable to stealth attacks, which rely on slower movements and minimal force. Also, the inertia field offers little protection against weapons based on non-kinetic energy like thermal (e.g., flamethrowers) or electrical (e.g., tasers).
Raquel Ervin is a voracious reader and a gifted writer. A former high school gymnast, she is very agile and has quick reflexes. Rocket is also a good hand-to-hand combatant due to her crime-fighting experience as Icon's sidekick.

I think I remember her; didn't she get pregnant in the comics?
π: 0 β©: 1
That I don't know....but follow the link at the top of the page and you will find her Comicvine profile.

She did get pregnant; her best friend took over as Rocket during her maternaty leave.

Yes....I discovered this with some research myself

Well when you say something along the lines of "I don't know about..." in a comments section, someone's gonna answer it whether you researched it yourself or not, so nanananabooboo.

I totally get it. At the time I had no idea....but few watchers told me the tale and I went and read her background. I'm glad people tell me these things....it make the work that much more interesting if there is trivia as well.

is it just me or does anyone else think Rocket needs a costume change
π: 0 β©: 1
She has a very non interesting costume...bit the Milestone universe was a bit grittier....and I guess more realistic. She could do with a little make over or splash of colour
