Black Velvet

Frelengian scientist who was friends with Zadavia and Optimatus in their youth and had been still despite their fight until very-recently

she built Optimatus' prothetics and helped him recover

She was hurt when aiding Zadavia in stopping the comet and Zadavia did not help her before the effects became permanent

given a Black-Light Piece from Optimatus when they were researching the Renraw Prism, though it wasn't until the Comet that it activated and granted her powers

Professor Zane/ Ringmaster

Combined Professor Zane and Ringmaster into one character given the similarities of their villainous roles and how their specialties in genetics

Bought out his family's dieing circus after the Loonatics destroyed his scientific reputation with the Fuz-E's indcident

keep Tim Curry's voice

Drake Sypher

Less Syndrome-Flash-Wannabe-Firestorm vibes to something more stylish given his thirst for fame and glory

failed model vibes- too much plastic surgery and dieting to get that uncanny valley effect

Adjust the red-yellow color to accents to reflect how he stole Rev and Ace's powers first

also if his powers work through touch WHY WAS HE ALWAYS WEARING GLOVES WHEN HE STOLE EVERYONE'S POWERS

so fingerless gloves

Mallory Casey/ Mastermind

more armor covereage

black iron filament armor pieces for easier manipulation

Massive

I actually like his og outfit but I felt we could do him one better,

give him more thug vibes and lean a little more into the Monstars

Paula Hayes/ Weather Vane

again i liked her original look but felt it didn't quite match

also not a huge fan of "mutated + random skin/hair color change"

leaned into a more "practical-professional-yet-fashionable" look for someone expecting extreme weather

Arthur Chroniker/ Time Skip

honestly i loved his design and his character premise

I would've brought him back as a more morally-grey character for a "bad alt future" episode

he's a kid who's work was STOLEN by the government with NO ONE supporting him

while ALSO having his famous scientist grandpa (who's implied to be his only family who has no idea what to do with him- implying relatively recent dead or indisposed parents) accidentally mutate him with time powers

destroying the city is extreme but he's a kid dealing with a lot
