Inferno


And right on cue for Burning Man, Inferno...it seemed like the right character to draw before the burn.
If you don't know what Burning Man is click here.
When I was looking to see what Legion of Super Heroes character I didn't draw yet, I came across Inferno. She looks like she could easily be a burner because of her outfit, and in top of it she has the power of fire. I can totally see a girl like this cruising the playa on her pimped out bike with hot rod flames. And yes I'll be at Burning Man, so no art for a while, sorry.

Inferno (alias Sandy Anderson of the planet Earth) is a superheroine in the DC Comics universe. The character is a former ally of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the future, but currently resides in the present day. Sandy has ability to generate and manipulate fire. Inferno was created by Tom Peyer and Jeff Moy. Inferno was not in the original Legion continuity, although she may have bases on a character named Beauty Blaze who created for the Legion of Super-Villains, but ultimately unused.
For those who are beginning soon on their journey to the flames, have a great burn and drive safe!
Cheers

Andromeda

Laurel Gand, aka codename Andromeda, is a superheroine in the 30th/31st-century DC Comics universe, and a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes. She was created as a replacement for Supergirl in post-Crisis on Infinite Earths Legion continuity. She was also inspired by elements of Superman's supposed descendant Laurel Kent.
Laurel Gand spent most of her life in a White Triangle community, being indoctrinated in the "horrors" of interspecies co-operation before the Triangle's political clout led her to become the Daxamite representative in the Legion. Generally, the abilities of Laurel Gand (and other Daxamites) are identical to those of Superman and other natives of the planet Krypton (super-strength; speed; flight; x-ray, heat, microscopic or telescopic vision powers; invulnerability and super hearing), with three major exceptions:
1. She is vulnerable to the inert element lead, instead of the radioactive element Kryptonite.
2. Lead poisioning is fatal to Daxamites, and Laurel is kept alive only through ingestion of anti-lead serum, such as the one modified by Brainiac 5.
3. In her two pre-Zero Hour incarnations, the radiation of a red star will not rob her of her powers, as it would with most Daxamites and Kryptonians.
I had to use the actual Andromeda galaxy for the BG, it seemed so perfect for this. I also used the real Andromeda galaxy for the uniform. Andromeda wearing Andromeda.
Hope you like it.
