While many comic book characters have been around for many decades and have evolved since the 60s/70s/80s with the changing of social norms and evolution of comics as a medium, what do you think are the best comic book characters that were introduced comparatively recently? As in, this millennium?
Starting from the year 2000, we'll discuss characters that have made a big impression in the short time they've existed.
As you can tell, one of my favorites is Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle III. Though introduced in 2006, he's become a regular of the DC Universe and is the Blue Beetle for many young readers like me. He has struggles, provides a new perspective in his setting, makes all kinds of jokes, is friendly and relatable, and has an alien war machine that can form all sorts of weapons and gadgets. Can't go wrong with that.
What about you guys? Anything from 2000-2017 is fair game. Discuss.
