The leader of New Wave had named herself Lady Photon, but in the wake of New Wave’s founding, and the revealing of their secret identities, the media had latched on to the idea of a superheroine mom and dubbed her Photon Mom.
Ahahaha
Like any true fandom.
*glances over at the Steven Universe, Undertale and Homestuck fandoms*
…
Huh. It’s actually extremely fitting that it’s New Wave that’s up against Purity. We’ve got a villain whose family was taken away because her secret identity was revealed, up against a hero team that is big on the whole family thing and has willingly revealed their secret identities.
It was apparent to anyone who followed cape news that the name really bugged her.
Hehe.
Lady Photon’s daughter and niece were in the air with her. Laserdream and Glory Girl.
Respectively, I assume. Let’s see, how does this match up with my previous speculations about the family tree? Krixwell from 3.11 said:
“I have a feeling she’s listing them in the same order as the relations, though, which would make Flashbang Glory Girl’s dad
and Lady Photon her presumably paternal aunt.
Manpower would then be the uncle. Maybe a bruiser type, like Browbeat?
Laserdream and Shielder are most likely children of Lady Photon and Manpower.”
It’s looking good so far!
