Fashion Crisis: Newsarama talks to Rags Morales about the long road to success, and some of the sartorial obstacles to the upcoming Identity Crisis event:
"Certain costumes, we decided to ignore certain things. We hated Zatanna’s top hat, so that’s gone, but she has the rest of the outfit. Other touches like Black Canary sometimes showing up with her hair up like she’s 15. We just took it down. Little things like that. We tinkered with it all a little."
Morales also discusses the actors on whom he based some of the characters. Ladies and gentlemen, may I present Mr. Ron Jeremy as Captain Boomerang:
"I went online and pulled references of actor’s faces for a lot of them –- not as a template, but as a starting point. For instance, Dr. Moon, if you look at him, that’s Jerry Lewis under there. Carolyn Jones, from The Addams Family is Phobia. Jackie the Joke Man Martlin/Ron Jeremy is Captain Boomerang. I took Ricardo Montalban from The Wrath of Khan, and he was my Meryln. Little things like that. Monocle and the Spider pretty much came out of my head."
