How often are there superheroes with superpowers that incorporated into the art in creative ways?
Why isn't it more common?

Not often enough.
When you write comics to just get a story across, or to get your paycheck, there isn't much room or time for nice things.

I didn't love all of Whedon's run, but when it worked, it was fucking magic in a way I hadn't felt since Claremont.

Doesn't Doom Patrol have a girl who throws dialogue balloons at people?

Because superhero comics have to be shit out at an insane pace, there's not a lot of time for cool art.

I remember this DC villaines (New TeenTitans I think) that had some kind of reality bending powers but for the life of me I can't find what her name was again, she looked misshapen

She on this?

No, her face looked like it was half bent, or like having a huge stroke, If she really was in the New Teen Titans it was the second volume 1984-1988

Cross Christina?

I mean OP, you try coming up a superpower that allows for creative visual uses every month for years, doesn't take too long to draw, and doesn't break your story

That's just how it is for obscure shit. Even modern AI with its massive search engine capabilities struggles to find accurate info on stuff like 80s DC comics.

>>155677154
Meh. This has been done a bunch, and it's not particularly creative.
>>
>>155668249
I know in the show Jane has a personality called Silver Tongue that can make words appear and throw them. No idea if it's a thing in the comics.
>>
>>155668055
Did Claremont's run have anything like that?
>>
>>155682269
Yes, Claremont regularly had moments to let individual members of the team shine and really cut loose with their powers.

Because most comics writers aren't very creative..

The push for realism in the 2000s kind of killed that sort of artistic expression in cape comics. Basically just a more refined version of the Family Guy adult cartoon style, the art is no longer a part of the product, just a means of moving the story along.
