Description
This was the 12th entry into my 28 Days of Black Superheroines series that I've been working on via Instragam in order to celebrate Black History Month.As the premiere heroine from Milestone comics, aspiring writer Raquel Ervin made her debut in 1993. As Rocket, she used her ability to manipulate kinetic energy the partner to Icon. In 2009, she and the other Milestone characters joined the DC Universe. Shortly after that, she would be featured as a recurring character on the beloved cartoon Young Justice.
As always, I love hearing from you guys so please feel free to leave a comment below.
Enjoy!

Here's a cool one I missed. Her costume is really neat, the belt centres the image (if that makes sense) which makes up for the jacket being unzipped too low (which could look silly otherwise).
Her headgear is reminiscent of Jean Grey's classic look (which has to be in the running for best costume of all time).

She's actually wearing a flight suit, which would be a full-body jumpsuit rather than a two-piece jacket and pant combination. At least, that's what it seems like to me.
As a side note, I'd argue that the headgear should likely be cited as reminiscent of Angel's classic costume. Angel had a similar feature as part of his costume way back in 1969, several decades before Jim Lee incorporated it into Jean Grey's look. In fact, both Gambit and Rogue had similar headgear before Jean did (Rogue's was short-lived, but can be seen here: 1.bp.blogspot.com/-Y1BpTXIhZ0w… ). I'm kind of a stickler for properly citing the originators of certain things. That way, the right characters or creators get props for having it first.
