#dr. cara roach

I realized I have three cockroach OCs...so one thing led to another, and this happened. XD Was really neat to draw them in their own styles, but combine them with each other.

Probably the only person to make a Bad Guys OC, but hey, I'm ahead of the curb of the movie, so there's that. XD Dr. Cara Roach is an enigma of a scientist. She graduated from college with Legs (in reality, they were just in the same graduation year and had a few core classes together), and quickly moved into the scientific medicine field...where she was quickly disgraced, despite her skills, thanks to the lingering "bad animal" stereotype. Thanks to this stereotype, she went off the grid, performing her own freelance experiments to sell to the best bidder. Thanks to being off the grid, she turned into her own guinea pig, testing her odd concoctions and machinery on herself. While her cockroach nature meant she was unscathed, she only became more of an outsider in the science field in the end. Thanks to the efforts of The Good Guys Club, she slowly started to break out into the mainstream, shifting her skills to aiding them and the International League of Heroes whenever she could. Despite this shift in tone, along with a much healthier paycheck, she's still garbage. Old habits die hard, and she lives off of cheap junk food and high-sugar snacks, along with continuing to use herself as her own test subject. Oddly enough, throughout all of these tribulations, she keeps her lab space immaculate.
