They made her a youtuber in the Batgirl comic. And they played the podcaster thing.
The issue isn't they don't know what to do with her, it's they don't really care to do anything.
She has a small contingency of SIMPs tht like her TAS appearances and maybe a little of her comic stuff but there's n mass demand for her otherwise.
She feels like she'd be into Dirtbag politics, so either she's a rightwinger or dirtbag left. Either way she probably shits on Hasan for being a homosexual while also being envious of his success.
I could see a comic where she has a "collaboration" with a bunch of other streamers(all obvious parodies of real life figures) who are bigger than her, which is she's just holding them all hostage LIVE and her electricity powers allow her to transmit herself near instantly to their locations so they can't run away
She's far more of an annoyance but yeah if the writer is like "Superman gives zero fricks about electricity" then she's at worst a slippery villain. Like she could be good with plots where it's just a runaway caper but you can only do that so much and either need to pump her up or team her up with someone else.
This is probably the reason why they would never give her the Harley push a Liberal dyke shock Jock who was eventually straighten up AND REDEEMED BY ALL AMERICAN FARMBOY SUPERwiener

Nah, they would sweep all this under the rug in an instant if they wanted to dyke her up. The thought simply didn't occur to them...yet.
There's a difference anon. Newspapers still exits (although usually owned by billionaires which the Daily Planet is). Shock jocks literally don't exist anymore, Bush cracked down on that shit, the closest thing is shit head podcasters who try to sensationalize shit.
There's nothing about this design that's even vaguely reminiscent of Livewire.
From what I can tell as an outsider to the show, most of the designs in it really fricking suck.
It was a pretty fun take on the character, I just wish she did more shitposting online as Leslie rather than just be a nuisance as Livewire as her online content. I get DCSHG was a more kid-friendly show than the DCAU, but it would've still been fun to watch.
Might be cool if it’s done right and wow she really doesn’t care about showing off. Her outfit might be an adult joke that it’s made of air meaning she’s kind of naked
Radio shock jocks still exist and are still relevant, because they still funnel crap to stupid lead-poisoned boomers. She's an example of something that doesn't actually need to be updated yet even though it's easy for people who aren't boomers to think she's outdated.
Leslie you can't call Supergirl that on the air.
You have the worst kind of stupid.
this
. I'm sick of casuals on this board
Realistically she'd be friends with Hasan.

This sort of points out the problem here, she is not really a superman villain. She is as much of an annoyance as any street criminal with a gun

she lusts for the Superwiener

Which is weird because other writers have pointed out electricity works.
That's because writers rarely bother to get her powers correct.
It’s people like you that stopped the Daily Bugle from being a newspaper! DIE!

weren't they trying to turn it into a tv news channel back in the early 80s?
That's exactly what she's doing right now though. She's running the Daily Planet podcast.
I like anachronisms in cape comics. making her a streamer would seem more dated after a while honestly.
She's cute.
Yeah, and the only way to update a "shock jock" would be for her to do CW politics. There's no apolitical "shock" anymore like when she was created.
They have updated her both into a YouTuber and a podcaster, but haven't actually done much with that.
they'd update her into a youtube grifter who thinks that the star wars sequels suck
I mean she wouldn't be wrong.
DC Super Hero Girls made her an online streamer and professional shitposter, which felt pretty brilliant to me.
Leslie would almost certainly be an Anon if she were in the modern day as a young adult.
This.
I like my tomboy choco in skinsuit as much as the next guy, but they really dropped the ball on her background
Need MAWS and regular Leslie sniping about how the other sucks.
And her hair is disgusting
nah, the hair’s fine
No it isn't. Why is she a fricking Black person?
because everyone has to be, anymore.
True

She does come off as pretty erotic.
>villain is evil because Twitch chat met the $10000 chat donation goal for her to fight Superman
>I knew I should have done that OnlyFans anal collab instead.

She's go full e-thot once she gets her powers.
Being able to reshape your body really makes e-whoring easy.
No, frick off. She is a Lori Petty homage. No matter what they do she'd be turned to shit, just like Harley is now.
I feel like people are desperately trying to make Livewire more than she actually is. Like some sexy goth girl archtype that Superman can frick.
Considering Supes is a big boy scout what would Leslie have to do to get the SUPERwiener?
need saving.
The 50 year old boomers working at DC don't know what a podcast is.
