No, these ladies aren’t sisters, but they’ve got a lot in common (besides devilish grins). You almost feel bad for Harley Quinn sometimes. She lost her way while she was enthralled with the Joker in that definitely unhealthy love-hate relationship. Along the way she was resourceful, picking up mind games, fighting ability, and a certain unpredictable nature.
Meanwhile, Cruella Deville rose up from humble beginnings to overtake a fashion empire. Not a traditional fighter, Cruella showed that she is scrappy and isn’t afraid to take a violent turn when she feels it’s needed.
Cruella has a cane while Harley has her bat (and usually some guns, a glitter bomb, smoke bombs, and maybe a few knives). Harley wins the weapons contest, but if Cruella can throw Harley off her game, then the weapons may not matter much. Cruella would have to make it a hand-to-hand fight.
Harley is unpredictable, but Cruella is observant. She’s good at reading people. She also makes long-term plans. Harley isn’t stupid, but Cruella may outshine Harley when it comes to smarts.
Still, Harley is too agile, rough, and tough to lose. She’ll beat up Cruella, even this younger version of her.
i'm genuinely having so much fun writing a jock protagonist. can't believe i never tried this before. all these years i've been limiting myself needlessly
There's a decided lack of non-modern horse cc in the community, so when I saw @objuct's Traditional Arabain Set, I knew I needed to make some recolors.

Here's a fun one! Mr. 007 himself, James Bond, against Indiana Jones.
Now, Indy is no secret agent. He's a professor and archeologist, but he has a combat background as an Officer in the U.S. Army. He's almost a professional adventurer who is a jack of all trades, really. He can shoot a gun, crack a whip, run quickly, outrun enemies in car chases, and his punch packs a wallop! This professor is no slouch when it comes to getting himself out of sticky situations.
Still, James Bond is a secret agent. An actual agent who has also dealt with his fair share of compromising situations. I'd say he's at least as trained as Indiana Jones when it comes to skill.
Both are quick to improvise, they're smart, and they have no problems getting into a fight if needed. I think the difference here is resources and tricks. Indiana Jones may look more unassuming, which could catch Bond off-guard, but when Bond gets a feel for the fight, he'll use his vast variety of weapons and tricks to win the fight.
Winner: James Bond (sorry Indy ... it was a close call)
In love with the idea of captain marvel being Billy's imaginary friend. Like, it'd be so easy. Early depictions had them as almost fully separate people sometimes, like one soul with two minds, rather than just two filters like we mostly see now.
But imagine a Billy down on his luck, hurt and hiding from police and criminals alike, daydreaming the hours away as children do, taking inspiration from all the superheroes rising to fame, making little stories to play out his dreams of saving the world with a generic action doll he found while dumpster diving once. Most of the paint's rubbed off.
Red's his favourite colour, his comfiest jumper is a bright ruby even after all the grime and washes. Gold, too, it's shiny and warmer than silver! A hero cape is a must, big and eye catching! And he can fly, of course, like superman, and in his daydreams, when he's sore and frustrated after a long day's grind, his superhero is smart enough and knows all the right words to get the bullies to stop without resorting to fighting.
His superhero fantasy is one he spends a lot of time on, the first one he goes for when struggling to sleep at night, and he can picture it so clearly. Captain marvel is big and bright and kind, strong enough to lift the boxes for the old lady up the road who's moving all by himself, fast enough to catch Jamie who fell out of the tree on Saturday and broke his leg and couldn't come to class for weeks. He appears at the entrance to alleys when Billy is cornered, he steps up behind to cover for him when he gets caught shoplifting, he sits at the bus stop with him when it's pouring rain and the right bus doesn't seem to be coming.
And then the wizard comes, or rather whisks him away, and like a magician from a fairytale breathes life into his imaginary friend until Billy feels thrice his size and a million times more invincible.
From then on, captain marvel is a real hero, just like Billy is a real boy, and as one they save the whole city, and then the whole world, and get cats down from trees and help Mrs Victoria move the last of her boxes and she gives them a pinch in the cheek and cookies for the road and sometimes it hurts but it's so much better than he imagined.
