Clique 13 - Julianna 9: Freude

I can't remember seeing a comic page where a character was continuously happy. Angst-ridden, desperate and all, yes, but joyous? At most a splash page, but not through several panels.
And I know it would have worked better if I had shown her fighting for getting the operation done. If she would've had to convince her guardian or raise the money on their own. I'm determined to show her struggle mnore detailed when?
Yeah. In the final comic.

Hooray! She got her wings! Actually, the "unhappy super hero" syndrome is something that bugs me, too. I've had discussions about this recently with Abt Nihil (and others!), particularly with regard to Wonder Woman. She [u]always[/u] used to smile. But since it became [i]de rigueur[/i] for all super heroes to be "grim and gritty", she just scowls and looks angst-ridden and/or angry. I mean ... it works for Batman but not for [i]everyone[/i]! Hooray for happy heroes!
