Richard SWIFT! Been wanting to do this pun since starting doing the bird puns, finally managed to get some decent swift photos when I was on holiday :) Being a Shade fan has rocketed my love for these birds even higher, I'm now happily exclaiming "Dickie!" whenever I see one (already loved them for their little screaming though)

Decided to go for a more canon to the comics pride flag rather than me just hitting him with the aspec beam (I love you CW Stargirl season 2)
