3* Cissie's TraumaCongaLine storyline when she discovers the guidance counselor she trusted was shot to death by her violent ex-boyfriend. After hunting the bastard down like a dog and almost killing him, Cissie goes through a HeroicBSOD that ultimately leads to her retiring from superheroics altogether. She spends a good chunk of one issue curled up in a fetal position with a ThousandYardStare on Cassie's bed.
4** Her TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to an obnoxious senator who tries to use the situation to decry the "moral decay" in society being caused by violent media, angrily screaming how the guy has voted against ''every'' gun control law he's had a say in.
5* [[ComicBook/Superboy1994 Kon-El]]'s StepfordSmiler aspects come into full view in #7, where, despite his claims to the contrary, he is obviously very upset by his [[NeverGrewUp Peter Pan-esque qualities]]. Especially the panels where it looks like his own shadow's grown up and flown away.
6--> And like Peter Pan said, "To die...would be a great adventure."
7* In issue #43 Traya, Red Tornado's adoptive daughter, is attacked at her school because she is the same nationality as terrorists who murdered the parents of a classmate. By the end of their torment her hair has been partly cut and she's in tears begging for her parents.
