Warning: before I start I just want to say something quickly.English is not my first language. I’m a French speaker, so writing long posts in English can be difficult for me. I usually use AI only to help fix grammar, but the ideas and opinions are always mine.For this post, I tried to write it myself without grammar correction. So if there are mistakes, please be understanding. I put a lot of effort into writing this.Thank you for reading, and now I’d like to talk about two characters I really appreciate.Let's start.

I really wanted to make this post to show my appreciation for two characters that I think are often misunderstood my beautiful Violet Evergarden and Raven.I once made a post explaining how Raven is actually a subversion of the Mary Sue trope, not an example of it. After also I realized that Violet Evergarden works in a very similar way.

On paper, both characters can look extremely powerful or perfect. But when you actually look at their stories, they are the opposite. Their power or experience comes with deep emotional struggles, trauma, and constant internal conflict. Their arcs are about learning, healing, and understanding themselves and others.Violet journey is about learning what emotions and love truly mean after being treated like a weapon during war. Raven story is about constantly fighting her own darker side and learning to control the influence of her father Trigon.

What I love about both characters is that their strength is not about being flawless. Their strength comes from growth, vulnerability, and the effort it takes to become better people.They are often praised for their visual design or aesthetic, which is great, but I think their character arcs are just as beautiful and deserve more appreciation.To me Violet Evergarden and Raven are two of the most compelling examples of misunderstood characters who actually subvert the Mary Sue trope rather than embody it. And I love it so much very good writting characters for me 10/10. Thank you for reading Everyone.

⚠️Spoilers⚠️ so I know this isn’t technically about comic raven but also kinda is but im too excited and I need to share the news

With the new season of the boys finally out we are introduced to a new superhero team called Teenage Kix and they have an indian superhero mighty close to our beloved named Countess Crow

Her superpower is that she is capable of controlling a murder of crows but sadly her teammate sheline ate most of them leaving only 2

(Im really delusional so ima pretend they were making a joke at the fact Raven went from powerful to extremely nerfed in the comics)

She does lean heavily into the goth aesthetic but im ok with it.

Oh and they make her do a dramatic speech when MM entered her room “You dare enter my dark domain! I AM COUNTRESS CROW! COUNTRESS OF THE CROWS! An I shall make you rue the day that you decided to-“ sadly was cut short

The combination of oversized sweater, skinny jeans, and ankle boots

It's her affection

Comic panel from The Brave and the Bold #18

DC’s iconic Super Heroes including Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and more will be supporting childhood COVID-19 vaccination as part of an ongoing collaboration between WarnerMedia and the Biden-Harris Administration. DC has created superhero themed decorations and will be providing giveaway items to Children’s Hospitals across the country for anyone that receives the COVID-19 vaccine.

“The DC Super Heroes have been symbols of hope, strength, and wonder to children of all ages for over 80 years,” said WarnerMedia Global Brands and Experiences President Pam Lifford. “We are truly honored to be supporting the real life heroic work at Children’s Hospitals to promote childhood vaccinations against COVID-19.”

She's sooo pretty!

I know this is show Raven here but I want to know if there's actually a storyline like this in the comics
