What The Boys' Cast Look Like In The Comics

In The Comic

With a Christian background, a humble yet sweet white and yellow costume, and all the caring nature and good looks of a well-meaning aspiring hero, Starlight is pretty much the symbol of actual heroism, which is also why we see her get dunked on awfully and persistently by the rest of The Seven after she joins.

Starlight's Amazon transformation well and truly keeps the fragile wholesome appearance of her comic counterpart alive - and also has it customarily destroyed by the superhero industry and her fellow Seven over time.

You can tell whoever worked on costume had a complete field day with this, too, as they clearly take extra steps to emphasise Anna's innocence before it is summarily crushed - such as the delicate star necklace, and the twee white hairband that completes the look.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
