Newly created Plastique heromorph makes me feel "explosive"


So this came about in a rather unique way. There's this artist on Deviant Art who specializes in heromorph fan art check it out: http://daswookofheromorph.deviantart.com/gallery/  I started using his stuff a couple of weeks back for my other blog and from that we started to chat a bit at Deviant Art. About  a week ago he asked me if there's anybody he hasn't done yet I'd like to see for which I suggested Plastique. And wouldn't ya know it this showed up in his gallery just a couple of days ago.
Did you know that Plastique only appeared in the first 3 issues (1987) of the entire John Ostrander Suicide Squad series? Aside from some kind of love triangle she was a part of along with Captain Atom and Nightshade I don't know much about what happened with the character since then.

That is until 2006 when she turned up in Checkmate #6 (Vol. 2) in which Amanda Waller as Checkmate's White Queen secretly reactivated the Suicide Squad. As you can see from the clip art it was business as usual with things going wrong even before the mission got under way. Would you want to go on a dangerous gig with this group?

A couple years after that she would turn up in the 8 issue Suicide Squad mini-series "Raise the Flag" (2008). She really kicked ass in that mini check out this posting from early last year: http://suicidesquadtaskforcex.blogspot.com/2010/10/plastique-is-bomb-just-dont-call-her.html Since then Plastique was a regular on the Suicide Squad for almost all their appearances before the old DCU ended.
