I mean, you're not *wrong* but there is also some sense in making a character the focus of their introduction, especially a newbie to the expansive Legion mythos. 😉
Interesting to see some very surface level parallels to the Flash episode "Enter Flashtime" with the gimmick here.
Eh, gotta let the newbie have their time in the sun before they get shoved off into ignominy and obscurity.
Poor Jeni shouldn't be so hard on herself. She's an Allen. She's got two generations worth of lowered expectations to measure up against. That may not sound like a lot, but when one of those generations is Barry Allen, that's some impressively low expectations. (And this was 90s Barry "pure pureness" Allen, not modern Barry.)
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
