So there are a couple possibilities why Dazzler is such a moron in this comic. Either she's a novice hero, so she makes dumb mistakes; she's a girl, so she's stupid; or she's young, so she's stupid.In this issue some heavies strong-arm her into traveling to Project Pegasus to have her powers studied. She's not happy about it, but she decides to stick it out because Quasar is cute and she wants to hang out with him. Later in the issue, as she gets unhappy with all the poking and prodding, she starts to question the entire Project's motivation. Klaw, the evil-looking sound being, starts crying and telling Dazzler that the scientists are hurting him. So she busts him loose!!!!! He goes nuts, of course, and it takes her and Quasar to eventually take him out. I just love that she's so gullible. Danny Fingeroth sure writes her as a pretty naive and stupid hero.
I don't get it, is the reader supposed to feel bad that she's so gullible?
Frank Springer rocks the silver suit and roller skates. Dazzler's origina costume is one of the coolest relics of the 70s out there, and I love seeing her fight villains in it. Quasar looks a bit bulkier than I remember, but maybe baggy clothes were in fashion!
