New Characters Childminder & Miss Murder (Flash & Stargirl Spoilers)
DC Comics is publishing plenty of new comic book characters today, Childminder and Miss Murder are just two that get splash page treatment.
It seems to be a bit of a new characters day for DC. New superhero characters emerge from both Lazarus Planet as well as Supergirl: The Lost Children. But we also have a couple of the "let's reveal a new character with a big splash page and a logo of their name" variety. Of course, in Flash #791, that means having to deal with newly dead characters… for now at least.
But where there is death, there is also new life… of a sorts. And the first appearance of Miss Murder with a look that recalls everything from characters Judge Death and the Batman Who Laughs through to the Goblin Queen and the Gatekeeper from Ghostbusters.
Down doggies. While Stargirl: The Lost Children #3 brings back all manner of characters from previous and non-existence, giving life to those Who's Who entries…
…we also get a look at who has been looking after all these characters too.
The Childminder, with Baba Yaga legs to boot.
