*** Even though Fairchild was stated to be 18, the other 2 were implied to be underage, which makes those scenes with them much worse.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: The [=DV8=], as of their mini-series, ''Gods and Monsters''. The series has been almost universally praised, and is a big step up from their former role as PsychoRangers to the ComicBook/Gen13, giving them all decent characterizations, beyond that of "sociopath/monster".

** The original series' handling of Rainmaker's sexuality left a lot to be desired. Despite being explicitly lesbian, she was never given a female love interest, but was instead given at least two male love interests, and eventually Scott Lobdell retconned her as being bisexual so that he could pair her with Burnout. When Creator/GailSimone rebooted the series, among the changes she made was making Sarah explicitly lesbian and erasing her prior relationships with guys.

* ValuesDissonance: The original series featured a ''lot'' of gratuitous fanservice involving Caitlin, Roxy, and Sarah, despite all three of them being teenagers. This didn't get much attention back in the 90's, particularly since the series was outside of the Big Two comic companies, but it's probably highly unlikely that someone could get away with something like the Music/JanetJackson parody cover (featuring a topless Fairchild being groped from behind by Grunge) nowadays.
