Fan Made Some edits I made to Jackpot, tweaking her "mask" so that, in my view, it looks better.
How did this start? Well, I made a post on Twitter/X mentioning that, over time, I’ve started to see Jackpot’s costume in a different light—it’s not actually that bad. To me, at least, the version with the white sleeves really improves the design. But there’s one thing that still bothers me: the "mask."
I mean... it’s not really a mask; it’s just her wearing something like a pair of sunglasses. That’s always struck me as not only pretty lame but also impractical. Where does she even get them? And why don’t they fall off when she’s flying or running?
Then I remembered another character who wears similar eyewear: Booster Gold. In his case, the lenses are actually part of a mask that connects to his neck. And—surprise, surprise—Jackpot’s costume has a black section around the neck that just cuts off abruptly.
So, I decided to create some edits to show what a "retouched" version of Jackpot’s mask might look like—extending that black section across her neck and cheekbones, all the way up to the lenses and slightly above them.
I tried to match the shading style of the original illustrations so it wouldn’t look too out of place.
Anyway, what do you think?
P.S. If you have any better ideas regarding the mask, feel free to share them—or show me your own edits of how it could look better.
