Far more practical than the original and a clear nod to her blue collar background. The Rosie the Riveter look is perfect. This is a great redesign.

Very clever giving the Red Tornado a makeover. If any superhero needed it, it's her. Really nice! Very clever giving the Red Tornado a makeover. If any superhero needed it, it’s her.

It was a fun piece to draw. When I posted this on my <a href="http://beeswaxblog.blogspot.com/2007/03/red-tornado.html" rel="nofollow">blog,</a> there was some discussion of the gender-bending issues raised with the original Red Tornado. I abandoned those in favor of the class issues. Red Tornado is THE blue-collar superhero: a tenament mother who cobbles together weapons and armor from kitchen and factory to protect her children. I especially like the notion of what it would be like when she rubbed elbows with the Forties' surfeit of millionaire playboy superheroes. I’m glad you’re liking her! It was a fun piece to draw.

This is All-St*r Ma Hunkle: The Return of the Red Tornado. Just looking at her makes me imagine a story akin to the Forty Niners and the New Frontier.I owe you all an Orion, and Wonder Woman. I'll get to work. Irma Geddon eat your heart out.

I like the tough mom look. Sort of has a Rosie the Riveter feel with the big wrench and the overalls. The modified cooking pot helmet is hilarious. Fun stuff. I like the tough mom look.
