Nicole Maines

Nia is such a great character, and it's cool how Nicole Mains has championed her across TV and comics. It's a little weird reading an origin story for such an established character, because it's so clear where things are going -- Nia embraces her dream powers and becomes Dreamer, and her mom realizes that "daughter inherits powers" could be her trans daughter. And there's plenty of hints early on. But the ending was still surprising (and bittersweet), and I adore the group of queer/trans/alien friends Nia connects with. I hope there will be more Dreamer stories!… (meer)
