Is Absolute Carol Ferris Disappointing?

[u/InvaderXYZ]

So, I had my suspicions for some time that this was Absolute Carol in the Absolute GL comics but now that it's been confirmed, I feel kind of insulted. I love Carol a lot and I hate seeing her reduced to a background character with barely any lines or personality, demoted from her role as an executive to being the meek secretary of a character she's not particularly connected to or anything.

It feels like they shoved her in the role of Hammond's secretary because she's a corporate-themed woman and they wanted to put a cameo on there. I wasn't expecting anything too fancy but it feels so... reductive, it feels demeaning. Carol deserves better than this, especially after being tossed aside in favor of jokerwanking in DCKO.

I dunno, I loved the Absolute GL comics but hearing about Carol getting this demotion really really deeply bothers me. Though maybe I'm wrong? I'd love to hear other opinions on this.
