#stratogale

This is mainly going to be focusing a bit on Stratogale and some of her relationships with other supers since she's the main focus in these drawings

Thunderhead is the type of super I see the younger supers being comfortable talking to. As a father of 5 children, he's good at handling children/teens. With Stratogale being a young super, I see her going to him for comfort at times where she may not feel confident in talking to an adult without judgment. Stratogale is absolutely someone who cares for the pigeons in the park, especially since they were domesticated and bred as homing/carrier pigeons during the war. Pigeons hold a special place in her heart for their bravery, I can see her showing them off to Thunderhead and talking to them and him holding no judgment, even trying to talk to them himself.

With Stratogale being one of the few heroes at Bob and Helen's wedding, she has to be at least friends with them if she gets an invite to something as personal as two supers' wedding. With Elastigirl being such a big name amongst the supers, especially for women, I see Stratogale looking up to her. Elastigirl, in turn, sees Stratogale as a young upcoming female super, wants to see her succeed. Even though Elastigirl doesn't want to be a part of a super team, she gives Stratogale advice over lunch breaks.

With Stormicide, I see her and Stratogale being introduced to each other through Elastigirl over said lunch breaks. Stormicide, being a graduate student in chemistry, I see her helping Stratogale with her science homework from time to time. They may not be super close to one another, but they definitely hang out for lunch dates or make overs with the other female supers

Stratogale and Macroburst are best friends. Being two young supers, they were drawn to each other due to being close in age, but after getting to know one another, they became inseparable. They are often seen together in the break room, either chatting about their day as a super (or civilian), spilling gossip about other heroes, or venting their frustrations as sidekicks

I have seen a few people here and on TikTok draw that one super in the background as a part of their friend group, and I think they're cute. I've seen people call him Skynox or Falconeer (I like Falconeer a bit more)

Falconeer was a later addition to the friend group being a super outside of the NSA, the three try to find time during their busy schedule to hang out together often having lunches on rooftops and playing catch up. When they do have free time together, they will watch a movie or go out dancing.

That's all I have for now, I'm trying to figure out who I should draw next. I definitely want to draw someone I haven't drawn before, but I'm not sure who

Downburst—Sidney Poitier

Fironic—Cary Grant

Gamma Jack—Tab Hunter

Vectress—Pearl Bailey

Stormicide—Rue McClanahan

Macroburst—Tommy Kirk

Stratogale—Gloria Talbott

DOUBLE HC: Plasmabolt was Stratogale's mentor.

(Everything that follows from this occurred to me to me last night at 4 AM and it's pure HC, so proceed with caution)

Okay, first I'm going to explain a little about the origin of this headcanon for me, and as it sounds logical knowing that I'm an obsessive simp, This started with my interpretation that Mr. Incredible was Gamma Jack's mentor when he arrived at the NSA. (Because, well, if Macroburst was Everseer's sidekick and apprentice, who's to say other superheroes didn't have similar dynamics?). Regarding Jack and Bob, I feel that the teacher-student dynamic lasted relatively little time and wasn't very formal, but it was very meaningful for both of them.

Anyway, let's get back to what's relevant in this matter: Plasmabolt and Stratogale. I I feel that the NSA promoted these kinds of relationships because it allowed for greater control over the supers and ensured harmony among them. Because of this, the NSA, faced with the arrival of a super teenager with as much potential as Stratogale, a bird lover and a little distracted, they felt that the best option was to have Plasmabolt, a powerful, agile, kind and nature-loving super, guide her.

I feel like this relationship could have been very important to both of them. They give me cool aunt-niece vibes.

I imagine Plasmabolt teaching her things or taking care of her even outside of their identities as superheroes. Plasmabolt has always given me vibes of being someone very reserved but perfectly willing to interact or make friends. Or perhaps she saw herself reflected in Gale, feeling just as free as she did, empathizing with that mischievous but well-intentioned rebellion of adolescence.

Bolt taught Gale to be stronger, more skillful, and bolder. She planned to equip Gale with all the skills she might need and wanted to compensate for the girl's naiveté with strategy. She didn't want anyone to hurt her, so she helped her overcome her limits.

Thanks to her teacher's instruction, Gale managed to balance her supersonic flight, and reached heights that no normal person could have even dreamed of. A bright future lay ahead for the young prodigy. She was loved by her co-workers, she did well in school, her parents were excellent, and her teacher was like a second mother.

All this until she became careless, used all the confidence her teacher taught her, and fell because of her own abilities.

April 23, 1957.

My full Gale color and suit design :D

I see her and all I hear is Stateside by Pinkpantheress

SHE LITERALLY FLIES AT SUBSONIC SPEED (<760 mph at sea level) NO WONDER SHE WAS CATCHING UP TO A LITERAL JETLINER
