comment |
Faith Herbert, otherwise known by her alias Zephyr, is a Valiant Comics character created by Jim Shooter and David Lapham, first appearing in Harbinger #1 (dated January 1992).After losing her parents in an accident, Faith Herbert finds solace in fictional worlds of superheroes and tabletop RPGs. Years later as an adult, she discovers her latent psionic abilities and joins a team called the Renegades, adopting the codename Zephyr. Through her experiences with them, she not only comes into her own as a superhero, but a person in general.After appearing as a supporting character throughout the modern Valiant Universe since its reboot in 2012, Faith finally landed her first solo title —a limited series written by Jody Houser with art by Francis Portella and Marguerite Sauvage— in 2016. Due to overwhelming acclaim from critics and audiences alike, Faith was soon relaunched as an ongoing title with much of the same creative team intact. |

So Beautiful, It's a Curse: Chris Chriswell is an evil example; he always dreamed of playing supervillains, finding them more compelling than heroes, but because of his good looks, he kept getting cast in heroic roles, making him miserable. |

Contractual Purity: invoked In-Universe, with the teen actress Zoe Hines, the star of the Show Within a Show TV series Broadway High School, who was one of the victims in a phone hack that leaked private photos of her in her underwear intended for her boyfriend. Even though the pictures were harmless, it was considered incompatible with her "wholesome teen star" image, resulting in the show being cancelled. |
