As I've browsed through the archives looking for bad super-hero costumes, I've come across a number of characters previously unknown to me whom I had accidentally duplicated in my role-playing past. It's a bit jarring when it happens -- you're flipping through a comic and all of a sudden someone appears who you thought you'd invented ten years back. Only instead of a man it's a woman, and instead of being a villain it's a criminal, and their costume is just all wrong.
I thought I'd share a few of those, and going forward I might take a crack at re-imagining other established characters, sort of a HeroMachine "OtherWorlds" experiment. Here's the first accidental homage.
