Powers is a police drama – loosely modelled on Homicide: Life on the Street – set in a world with superheroes and villains, and Deena is the rookie partner of former immortal hero turned homicide cop Christian Walker. Formerly partnered with crooked Captain Adlard, Deena is now tagging along with the upright Walker but gets in deep with Internal Affairs for her frequent recourse to violence to get information from suspects and is keeping very quiet about the way her abusive former boyfriend got mysteriously electrocuted during an argument. Powers is currently the coolest comic that only comic book readers have heard of.

FIRST APPEARED IN POWERS # 1 (2000)
CREATED BY BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS AND MICHAEL AVON OEMING

We’d probably go with Natalie Portman – if she was willing to have the V for Vendetta haircut, she’d be happy to have the Deena bob.

Writer Bendis and artist Oeming base Deena on a combination of their wives... aaahhh.
