Quick Question

I just finished reading the Day of Vengeance special, and am left with one burning question:

When and How did Empress turn White?

I mean, it's six kinds of awesome to see her again, but did I miss something important?

  1. Umm... magic? It is the sepcial for the Day Of Vengance mini-series, after all. ;)

    Seriously, perhaps that is a mystery they are saving for the Shadopact to deal with at a later date.

  2. Might be like poor Connor Hawke, whose ethnicity apparently varies by moonlight. (The one thing *I* didn't like from Identity Crisis was that Connor was suddenly white with a bad hair cut)

  3. Oh. No. They. Didn't.

    ...Really? Wow. It's not even like Connor, where I can kind of understand the colorist being confused by the blond hair, son-of-a-white-man thing. Did she have a big role in the book?

  4. You'd think it'd be more logical to jsut color somebody hispanic if you're not sure -- that way, you can blame it on lighting or a tan.

  5. Holy Coloring Errors! Evidently no one could decide that day?

  6. Related, perhaps, to the same metatextual disease that changed Tempest's son into a daughter....

  8. "Johns and company are going to slip a new status quo in under our noses!"

    Going to...?

    Besides, I was tired of THAT status quo anyway. They really look the sharp aroma and stuff after the first decade or so. It was long overdue, if you ask me. ;)

  9. She was the child of two DEFINITELY black parents, wasn't she? Wow....
