Can we see any steve outfits you like

In no particular order;

Brown suit with a hat, I like it because he has a hat I think Steve should wear a hat more often.

Basic blue suit which doesn't say much but does feel very comfortably Steve to me that is something he would happily wear

Who can forget Steve's weird red bathrobe and green undershirt combo. He's trying to steal Vision's whole vibe.

I like him in a turtleneck he's incredibly cute to me here unfortunately

This weird pre-serum Steve with the purple sweater vest. Was purple a common colour for menswear back in the day? I feel like I saw it a lot in comics from the 60s to 80s and then it fell off.

Steve's date outfit when he went dancing with Connie Ferrari. I'm hoping this is a Marvel Rivals skin at some point also it has a hat too.

Steve's other outfit with Connie when he went to grovel and apologise. He might have been a bad boyfriend to Connie but he had that shit on for her.

And last but certainly not least the time he had to wear Black Mamba's costume as a disguise.

Are there any characters you wouldn't give nail polish or are those old men painting their nails?

its never any kind of logical choice, usually just whatever looks or breaks up the flesh tones on a pic. ive been leaving it off the old men but. 🥺 ted knight starry nail polish UR MINDDD

[ID: Ted Knight and Courtney Whitmore from DC Comics. They are sitting on a bench while Courtney holds one of Ted's hands and paints his nails. Ted is smiling softly and Courtney is beaming. Behind them is a table/bench in Red, yellow and green. The background is a light brown with a white star. End ID]

What types of pigeons would the Starmen be

i'm so glad you asked.

ted: starling. come onnnn he's the first starman, what else could he be??

mikaal: victoria crowned pigeon. i tend to lean on the idea of aliens as non-rock doves. kept as ornaments in captivity... big blue bird with just a dash of that rich red hue...

will: i'm thinking something kind of bulky, bred for the show ring but totally capable in the sky... english show homer perhaps

gavyn: green imperial pigeon.

david: bernhardiner-schecke/bernhardin magpie.

jack: had to be a highflyer! i really do feel like pakistani highflyer is the best fit for her... different forms, different colors, but g-d damn can that bird fly, and it's the "grandparent" of many other highflying breeds.

courtney: tv courtney has already been assigned frillback :) but comics courtney feels more komorner.

thom: rameron pigeon, because it looks like his starman costume (with yellow from his star boy costume)

tricia: g-d i do think she's just like her dad. just a damn nice ash red english homer.

I had a yummy treat so its time for my favorite game: taking comic book characters out to eat:

You had such a fun answer last time I asked you (taking Joshua Terrill to breakfast!) I had to ask you again! If you don't want to go one on one, you can bring a group this time!

You can take any comics book character to your fav ice cream place, BUT they have never been there before. Who are you taking and what are you going to reccomend them? (Bonus: Do you think they would get it?)

Thank you so much for asking again! I had a lot of fun with the last question, and I know exactly how to answer this one.

I am going to take my girl Greta Hayes (Secret) out to ice cream! After her restoration to life, of course. We know that she enjoys ice cream; it's what Darkseid gives her when they have their talk on Apokolips. And I think it's time she got to have some in a nonevil context.

Had to think about what could possibly qualify as my favorite ice cream place--it's been quite a while since I've been anywhere specifically for that. But a few years ago, a friend and I were visiting Salem, MA (not for the typical reason, but because there's a vintage-style clothing store I wanted to check out), and we stopped off at a place called Holy Cow. They had a lemon curd ice cream with lemon bars in it, which is right up my alley, and it was amazing. So that's where I'd take Greta. It's not that far from where Happy Harbor, RI would be, where she's based out of, but far enough away that it's unlikely that she's been there. (Of course, it's unlikely that she's been to many ice cream places at all since she's been sort of dead.)

Greta has a hard time making decisions (she mentions that she used to struggle just picking out breakfast cereal), so she probably would ask me for a recommendation. I've only had the lemon curd ice cream, but I don't know if she likes lemon, so I'm going to see what they have that might fit what we know about her tastes. The ice cream she had on Apokolips and apparently really liked appears to have been vanilla, with strawberry and chocolate toppings and cherries and bananas. They have regular vanilla and strawberry there, but actually I'm going to recommend their s'mores ice cream to her, in honor of the s'mores that her teammates got to eat at their campout in Young Justice 1998 #7 but that she couldn't have. It might be a nice way to make that up to her.

I think she'd get it. And then we could take our ice cream and walk over to the park across the street and eat while looking out over the harbor and chatting about how she's adjusting to life and what her plans are.

Now, I might end up taking a group, because Greta might want to have her friends with her to share ice cream (she asks Darkseid for this and it goes nowhere, but it says something about her that her first thought is to want to share a pleasant experience), so alternatively I could bring the entirety of Young Justice to Holy Cow. All of them: Tim, Kon, Bart, Cissie, Cassie, Anita, Slo-bo, and Ray (and Traya, Red Tornado, and Snapper can come too if they want). But only if Tim agrees to pay for everyone, because I can't afford that and he could. It would be a bit chaotic, but we'd have some fun conversation as long as I could keep them mostly out of trouble and if they don't decide that I'm one of those adults that they must drag at every opportunity LOL

What is Gaston about and how is it sax rohmering

Gaston the Disney villain has a comic series by pak and van lente the writing duo of all time. and Gaston max is a literary character written by sax rohmer for his Gaston max series (which include yellow claw and the golden scorpion which are two of the most impactful yellow peril novels outside of sax rohmers fu manchu series) and I keep saying im gastonmaxxing when I get Gaston which is only funny to me because I've read a couple Gaston max books
