Do you have a female character that might not (rightfully) fit with a modern audience? Is the woman you’re trying to portray lovesick,overtly sexual or a bit naive? Maybe a combination of all three?

Well the show has a very easy solution to that! Make the character competent yet angry with a very short fuse.

Comic Amber is love sick and naive? Make her this exemplary teen who politically goes above and beyond everything most actual politicians do but also give her a very short fuse and make her angry. You knew that your boyfriend is a super hero but it doesn’t fit narratically with the show / comic parallel? Just make her blow up at invincible. Problem solved!

Comic Queen Atlantis is naive and love sick? Immediately falling in love with invincible with a forced marriage? Well, just make her angry and competent.

Is your comic duplicate at risk of being groomed by a 2000 year old immortal man? Well don’t worry. Make her angry with a very short fuse and make her hypocritically blow up at Rex for daring to hypocritically call out her cheating on him while having sex with said immortal being.

Is comic Allen the alien throwing it down with big busted, single minded alien boob model? Well don’t worry. Just make her angry and competent. Now it’s commander Talia, who to be fair still had sex. It’s open to see if she is going to cheat on him or if she will be just angry and competent at Allen the stoner alien.

    It’s funny how none of the commenters can bring actual arguments against those points. It’s clear that the writers don’t know how to change admittedly unfortunate characters into anything else but angry flawless characters.

    Why can’t Allen be with someone who just loves life? Why does amber need to be absolutely perfect yet angry? Why is the Atlantean queen so different from her character and just another angry angry person?

    Honestly i need a rewatch about amber because people hate her so much while i barelly remember any scene where she is involved in season 1 lol

    I could remember some moments where she acted like an angry kid, but honestly i never thought about her since even the air in the show is shipping eve and mark and anyway, amber is still really young.
