Tyroc, or... a female character called Scream Queen? Only difference between the two characters would have been their sex. Otherwise, the exact same thing.

Just think a female character named Scream Queen that could do the same things would have been a very cool twist on the "helpless female that screams in movies" and instead uses the power of the scream.

thoughts?


*I posted this over on the DCMB's figuring it would stif up something, at least. Verrrry little. People on the DCMB's just have no sense of fun or imagination.

Maybe she has a 'day job' as an actress in z-level holovids?

I wonder how a hero who has to maintain a secret identity would go over in the LSH?

Sensor Girl sort of has or had one, but all of that never really came up as in-story material, did it?

Hmmm. For about half a minute Element Lad's power and background was supposed to be secret, but again, that never really was grist for the story mill.

What do you think of the prospect of a hero with a secret identity becoming a Legionnaire?

OR- a nickname for the next gal to attach herself to one of the single Legionnaires... the running gag- a different Legionnaire has to resuce 'Scream Queen' from the villain-of-the-week each issue.

Maybe Tyroc could change his name to Scream Queen.

I remember this, I was all like 'as long as she has big hair!'

And mmmm. Jamie Lee Curtis. Some people just get better-looking as they get older. [Smile]

OK, here are my theories.
1) Imagine if one of Tyroc's specialized screams turned the bad guy into a screaming little girl!

2) Tyroc is secretly a drag queen.

He hides this fact behind the facade that noone would think to connect "scream" and "queen" together and therefor expose him for the true, SCREAMING FLAMING DRAG QUEEN THAT HE REALLY IS!!!!!

There you have it. My thoughts on the subject.

P.S.
3) Tyroc is really a woman.

If Tyroc is a woman, then he'd be a drag king, not a drag queen.

Obviously, Scream Queen should wear Tyroc's original costume, complete with pixie boots.

I thought it was obvious he was a drag queen with that costume.
