I am ....hmmmm... married (13 years now), been an artist for, well, as long as i can remember. I published (self through Lulu.com) a graphic novel called Beautiful Tragedy last year/early this year, currently half way through volume 2. It's based on my life's experiences, and the types of things people like me go through every day.
#11 Deja Vu
Deja Vu is a teleporter, but when she does so, she leaves a faint image of her self behind for a few moments.
#10 Arioch
Of unknown origins, the being known as Arioch is indestructible and can generate his own supply of energy.  His stamina, and energy blasts seem to have no limit.
#8 Jericho
Aiden Jericho has the ability to “turn on” and “turn off” superhuman’s innate powers.  He can also (temporarily) augment them.
~~~I hadn’t planned on using him, because this was finished for coloring, but my markers died 🙁 and I have had a BAD day..so, here he is.
#7 UltraMass
UltraMass has the ability to increase his size (and in turn strength, and mass) by 100 times.
Note; He looks a little too pleasant to be a villain in this pic, but rest assured ..HE IS!
#6 Dynamo
Dynamo has the powers of Light- She can fly, and project beams of light with concussive force.
#5 Silouhette
Silhouette can manipulate darkness and shadows. Creating darkness, smothering out light, and even teleporting between shadows.
#4 Apparition
She has the powers of Invisibility and Intangibility- she leaves a stagnate
shimmery ghost-like visage behind when she becomes invisible.
Markers all dead 🙁 I am going to get a set of true drawing pencils for the rest of the month.
#3 Hellion
Hellion is exactly what she appears to be, a demon. Sent to earth by the lord of the Nether Realms She is to be a herald of the coming invasion and ensuing apocalypse.
#2 Midas Knight
The Midas Knight armor was created by Gaige Kincaid president, ceo and lead developer for Legion Industries a top cybernetic and weapons manufacturer.  The Midas Knight Prototype armor was sold to the US government for an undisclosed amount (but believed to be well over 10 billion dollars. The MD mk1 is an advancement over the original, drastically different design of the Amethyst Assault Armor (worn by the vigilante Amethyst).  Midas Knight is assigned as the official body guard of the president when she is overseas.
I didn’t realize til after i had colored him, how alike Iron Man he is. ah well.

2012 Returning Challenger-Melanie Dawn McGreevey
I am back! and so ready.  I hit all 30 last year, after only getting to 16 the year before.  Sadly only a few of my entries will be in color (after testing out my markers) Many are dried up, and i can’t afford a new set.  Anyway, goodluck to everyone! 😀

#30 Alexandria “Lexi” Reade
OK, i cheated. Â Lexi, is the “future” or transitioned “version” of the main character in my web comic Beautiful Tragedy. Â Xander Reade is an independent comic book artist and writer, who confronts his “demons” and realizes he has Gender Disphoria, and ultimately comes to the conclusion to transition to become the woman he was meant to be.
