Waspman (Carlos Collins) is a superhero. His only power, however, is to temporarily stun wasps. Somehow, he saves the world, multiple times.
His costume is sort of based on a common paper wasp, but he wears a yellow jacket because those are wasps too.
Slipstream (Claire Carlson) is TOTALLY NOT a Mary Sue. She gained the power to use any power she's ever seen used after grabbing the magic rock out of a supervillain's computer. Also perfect scores purple prose very popular yadda yadda. Normal and completely not a Sue.
The back of her cape is the same blue as her gloves/mask/etc.
Zephfyre (Valerie Faust) styles herself a supervillain, but she's just looking for fun super fights for entertainment, no actual villainy necessary. She shows up to wreak some havoc during her road trip from Macalester to New Orleans. Her powers are flight and the ability to create illusions of fire.
I swear her costume reminds me of something, but I can't figure out what. Her best friend (? haven't decided if their relationship is "just" friends or not, but "best friend" is at least not INaccurate) Wren has a nearly-matching costume but with a more triangular cape and sea foam green instead of orange.
Tiger Eye (Kennie Frost) is a fellow superhero Carlos encounters at college. In costume, he bears a strong resemblance to Carlos' roommate Trent Trudeau, and Carlos spends most of his first year thinking Trent is Tiger Eye. In the end it turns out Trent's just a big fan of the Cincinnati Bengals. Tiger Eye can hover really fast over the ground; as you can see in the picture, his eyes are glowing, and he has magic claws.
The orange was colorpicked off the Bengals logo.
I think this is the first time I've drawn humans since the valentine I drew in the spring. I like how these turned out.
