Caring Karla
A new face to the Moonstone. All of her life Karla has been self focused and self absorbed,looking out only for number one. But this is a new phase of the moon, an opening of her eyes and heart. And this new phase adds yet another layer of depth and quality to an already awesome character!
If I could only post one picture that truly captures this aspect of Karla it would be this one. After the tramatic death of teen hero and teammate Jolt, Hawkeye is crushed, his heart pieced through with grief- a lone, loving hand reaches down, to offer support and comfort...
At the funeral, a look of real concern for Clint is on her mind and heart.She has become a real listener, not listening to manipulate or use, but because she cares.
On a lighter note, after the funeral Clint takes Karla's advice to try to work out some of his stress, so off to climb a mountain. Not wanting to leave her man alone too long she plans a nice romantic lunch meal to surprise him and lift his spirits.
After being betrayed by the V-Battalion, Citizen V(Dallas Version) goes to the Tbolts for help, with the Battalion hot on her tail! In the midst of the battle, Hawkeye considers the merit in defending her. Moonstone jump in commenting, along the lines that the fact she has come to them is reason enough to defend her. This from a woman who will make strategic retreats from unnecessary battles?! Care and concern for others? A new phase of the Moon for sure!
Ps. See Kieran_Frost, there are times she is caring! :}
From issue 50, the all time best tbolt issue to date. Hawkeye is willing to goto jail so the tbolts can have their pardons, Karla shows her feelings "Lord, that scar looks cute on you"
After getting an offer she "can't refuse" from Gravy train, and knowing her man is in prison, she goes to see hawkeye, she is confused and looking for direction, but the aspect of care still exists.
