Snapdragon? "Superheroes are a cowardly and superstitious lot. What can I call myself to strike fear into their hearts? I know, I'll name myself after a flower. And I'll wear a costume that has insect antennae and a snake wrapped around. They make almost no thematic sense and they'll probably slow me down while fighting, but they'll look cool."

After reading this, I checked an old issue of Amazing Adventures to see if she always talked about herself in the third person. She did, but it's less annoying when she does it to sound intimidating in a fight than here when she thinks about herself in the third person.

Things have really changed since that issue of Amazing Adventures. At one point she says she'll change into her jumpsuit in the car, while still fully clothed, she says "Eyes front, Ivan" (her chauffeur at this point), and then you get two panels of the car. No shots of her changing, not even a perspective from the rear-view mirror. Obviously, Colan had no idea what was important in comic book art.
