I genuinely think that by some paradox DC was WAY more inclusive and "woke" in the '90 than now. Like so many POC characters, the firsts queer relationship in comics, many more disabled characters and representation than today. Not all of them were written well, mind you, but at least they were doing something instead of just showing up during Pride moth and then disappearing in limbo forever after a couple of cheesy lines. And we are not talking enough of all the disabilities erasure in the last years.

Everyone always talks about how Eobard Thawne is one of the funniest antagonists in the DCU, but I think we should talk more about Lady Shiva because her life goal is literally "maybe I'll fuck around and everyone else will find out."
She trains heroes for the bit so she can beat them up later. She saved Vic Sage's life only to say she'd kill him if he refused to defend himself and never once dropped her fan while she beat his ass. When Cass meets her, she's eating at a 5-star restaurant and planning to murder a woman for paying for bodyguards instead of defending herself. She calls Tim "little bird" and tells him in advance that she's planning to come kill him. Sometimes she just randomly shows up specifically so she can fuck with Dinah and then leave. Peak humor.
She's so incredibly bored all the time. All she wants is a challenge. So in lieu of that, she just makes it her mission in life to fuck with everyone for fun. No loyalties, no massive personal beef with anyone (still living). Just vibes. What a woman.

This week I did a couple of pieces homaging Cassandra Cain sketches by Marcio Takara.
I depicted Maria Zhang as Cass, and Yvonne Chapman as Lady Shiva.
I took the chance to play with their designs a little. 
My first time ever drawing Lady Shiva !! 
I may or may not do a 3rd one at some point. If I do, I'll add it to this post.

Summary:
Maybe Tim should have stayed in Paris like he had promised Bruce.
Maybe he shouldn’t have followed Shiva when he knew that she could snap his neck in a heartbeat.
Maybe he should’ve hightailed it out of Nanda Parbat by the time he realized he was in the demon’s den, and its claws were sinking in.
Once a small boy in an empty bedroom shoved a knife to his throat, looking equal parts righteous and frightened, though, there was no chance Tim was running away. Not when he had too much to prove - and everything to protect.

I was thinking about Jason's search for his mother, how it started. Jason didn't just go looking for random women based on the limited information that is his birthday, probably hospital, and that his mother's name starts with an 'S'. He found his father's address book which has the names with three women all starting with an 'S'.
Tumblr media
Among these is fucking Lady Shiva.

Which makes me wonder how a random Two Face "thug" like Willis Todd has at the very least, the name of a woman of her caliber in his address book. I'd say it's a "work" thing but as far as I know, Shiva and Dent never teamed up.
How did they meet? How did they get on friendly enough terms that Shiva possibly shared an address with him. (Real or fake would be aside the point because why would she share it at all unless she wanted to at least appear like she's on friendly terms.) Was Willis, pre New 52, a total chad?? Did they just work together at some point before Dent? If so what kind of jobs was Willis even doing that Shiva deemed him useful.
So many questions.

I don't know about DC's Dragon ladies being more complex in the 90s. That's when Shiva got on that "corrupt white heroes" kick starting with Chuck Dixon and when Jade nuked Qurac.
Sorry, my bad, I meant the 90s as in older comics, I chose that period because it's the middle ground for me in comics before the Great Edginess that came in the early 2000s. And yes, I still think that while very badly written, they were way more complex. Like I felt they at least were doing their own thing, instead now they ( Talia, Shiva, Shado, Chesh ect) are like the same character in different font. Most of the time in the modern comics they are just the ex/baby mama to go to when in needing of something "morally grey". And like they took their motivation, ideals and backstories and thrown them together. Shiva absolutely didn't want to be a mother and was way more on the side of good in her firts appearances, yet now she always loved Cass and lived in Asia, even if she was from Detroit (let's not talk about the whole David thing and how people treat it as consensual) , Talia who was in medical school and wasn't raised as an assasin is now the world deadliest woman. Shado, Who wanted to be a mother and raise her child in private, I think she was retired, basically turned into a Jade2.0.
Actually I think they all basically became Jade. Like the backstory was hers before. The struggle between her morals, wanting to live with her child but also being a danger, being raised as a weapon, all that was hers, but in modern comics all seems copypaste for these ladies. I think it is starting to get to Rose Wilson too. Like in a few years you will read how Lilith trained her to climb mountains since she was three.
Anyway, sorry for the long post, but I love my ladies so much, even with their messed up stories, and the modern narrative of "let's ignore everything this character has gone through in the past because I need them as a prop for one of the batboys" is really pissing me off.

Funny that DC just went “nah she was lying,” LIKE THE WHOLE REASON THEY ENDED UP WITH SHEILA WASN’T BECAUSE OF BATMAN GIVING LADY SHIVA THE “tRuTh SeRuM”!!!

Black Canary/Lady Shiva for the 2023 DCU Rarepair Exchange, this was my gift for @chezpillow ! Mixed media w/ pencils and inks, was very fun to work on 😊
Art description: Black Canary held by Lady Shiva from behind, with one hand over her mouth and the other restraining Dinah’s free hand by interlacing their fingers. The two women are making eye contact as Sandra’s hand tugs Dinah’s head backwards. Dinah is wearing a classic dark blue bodysuit with a fishnet chest cutout and fishnet tights, and Sandra is wearing a tang style purple and red frog-button blouse embroidered with golden phoenixes over form-fitting brown pants.

Idea!
Lady Shiva likes Tim because he reminds her of the daughter she barely knows.
