Glorith of Baaldur by Val Semeiks and Jose Marzan Jr. from Who's Who in the DC Universe.
Anyone else notice how Glorith and Nimona’s childhood relationship has HUGE Gelphie vibes? Just me?
Ok.
De-Evolving The Legion To Childhood
You know, Nimona isn't as groundbreaking technically as Puss in Boots: the Last Wish or Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse, but it's timing is impeccable. We were fresh off the heels of the late 2010s-early 2020s, with the rise and fall of Marvel's trend of "sympathetic" villains with some legitimate grievances about society who commit some heinous deed solely to remind the viewer that they're the bad guys. Killmonger is the ur-example, but let's throw out a few more just to prove my point: Baron Zemo, the Flag Smashers, the Vulture, and to a lesser degree Thanos.
Queue a movie where the villain with the legitimate societal grievance is, shocker of shockers, the GOOD GUY! WHAT A NOVEL. FUCKING. CONCEPT.
If Nimona were a Disney character, she'd have killed a child during the prison break scene, and shrugged it off and called it "metal" when Ballister confronted her about it after the fact. Then we could have a final confrontation where Bal defeats Nimona the same way Glorith did a thousand years ago, and gets welcomed back into the status quo without ever having to question whether the Institution might be the bad guys. Meanwhile, the director gets exposed via the EXACT means she was in the film we got, with the "filmed confession" trope, only in this version it'd work because Disney thinks cancel culture works on the fucking head of state.
But Nimona's not a Disney character. She defies Disney and it's favorite tropes; the divine right of hereditary rulers with it's princesses, and the sanctity of the status quo with it's villainous subversives. Nimona, both the character and the movie, delivers a gout of fire-breath to all that shit.
You are not bound by your status, you are not bound by "the way things are," and you certainly are not bound by the actions of your ancestors. Nimona preaches freedom, or as she might call it, "ANARCHY!!!" She says you can be whatever you want, and refuses to be defined by ANY preconceived notions! When asked what she is, she stubbornly replies "I'm Nimona," and that's ALL you get. And if you ask me, that's all that need be said.
