Hi @DCFanArtClub! We’ve worked on Captain Cold, Mister Freeze and let’s finish up January with Fire and Ice!
These two characters have been around for a long time (Fire first appeared in Super Friends #25 in 1979), but they really came to prominence in Justice League International. This was the ‘Bwah-ha-ha’ era of the JLI in the late 80s and there really is nothing else quite like it.
Their history and powers have had all kinds of comic book twists and retcons (even dying and coming back to life), but all you really need to know is that they are as close as sisters and their powers pretty much follow their namesakes (except Fire’s flame is green).

Ice was actually just in The Human Target #2 that came out at the end of November. Written by Tom King, it has a full recap of her history and was quite a good read.
Another pair of characters I have never drawn before. I’ll have to figure out my best way to create a scene for the characters. Add to the challenge my difficulty with female characters and this could be interesting
Yeah every challenge I try to find that hook that inspires me and then I can’t stop once started. It’s that first hook that takes me a while… though I think I have an idea
Hahaha hardly this but they’ve each had cameos in Justice League unlimited, with Fire getting a team up with Flash and Hawkgirl (i am legion episode) giving me one of my fav gifs of flash
Ahh! Yes! I love fire and ice! Especially Fire, loved her in JLU so much I actually have drawn them before, one of the first times I drew DC characters. Maybe I can dig up the old old old art when I get back home
