obviously I'm sure other characters have done it, I don't think its a super rare trope :P but

I'm more forgiving to Rose's promiscuousness in writing than a lot of her fans but this one is too far even for me.

A world without trans people never existed. They were always there, we just never noticed them.

Amazing Woman, formerly known as Fury

After the mega crossover even Infinite Crisis in DC Comics back in 2006, the main DC Trinity took a break for one year, and the comics company decided to follow the lives of more ordinary heroes. Among them was an ill-fated team calling themselves Infinity Inc.

While I was re-reading 52 a few weeks back, when I got my curiosity piqued and decided that I wanted to know whatever happened to Infinity Inc, in the aftermath of 52.

Among the original roster of Infinity Inc was a shadow of a character called Erik Storn, codenamed Fury. He was the violent guy of a group. Wanna be wolverine with hands that turn into claws.

In the aftermath of 52, several of the Infinity Inc roster began manifesting new powers and dealing with mental health issues. And we see Erik stumbling through figuring out his gender identity, which is manifesting as an almost separate personality, with a separate gender identity and the power to BECOME a different biological gender.

It's nowhere near perfect as representation. None of the members of Infinity Inc were cut out to be heroes in the long term. But I like it as a time capsule. A young person questioning their identity, and not having the language to express what they're feeling. They're so deep in denial that being gender-fluid is a thought that can't enter their mind.

Erik Storn was a unconfident, stuttering want-to-be everyman. Their gender-flipped side was a confident, invulnerable hero, that why she was known as Amazing Woman.

But, they just couldn't hold themselves together.

Erik Storn died before the Flashpoint. The pressure of being a hero proved too much for them. They died as part of one last heroic mission. Erik / Erika were part of a deep cover operation to prevent a war between planets. Sadly, they were executed for knowing too much.

Summary: The ambiguously-named Project Club of Murakami High has established themselves as not-so-secret superheroes for hire.

Chapter 10: December. Alien territory p.3

Preview:

“Wonder if they’re as obsessed and fanatical with the football game as our school is,” wondered Vic.

As they entered the house, the comparisons between their schools came almost automatically. Seeing the entirety of the food table was store-bought finger food and bagged stuff, Gar laughed. “That’s lame. Kitty went all out with the chocolate fountain.” The fact he hadn’t gotten to enjoy the fountain didn’t win over a sudden surge of loyalty to his classmate.

When they saw a guy on a turntable, Raven said, “Okay, they have a DJ. That’s a point for them.”

Then they walked into the living room. In the center of the room, before the double staircase, stood a twenty-five-foot tall, hay-filled paper-Mache model wearing a triple-sized reproduction of the white and blue Murakami football uniform, arguably bearing the likeness of the new football team captain. It was tall enough to reach the second floor. The Five stopped at it; the Terrance kids partied around it as if it was completely normal.

None of the Five had anything to say about that.
