Have you ever looked at a Firestorm and wondered "hey, who even is that?" Then I have the guide for you! Aside from Lorraine being at the end, this follows publication order.
[Note: these are not complete reading lists, only highlight reels with a couple of personal favorites snuck in. There are also a few times when this guide may not be useful for identifying your Firestorm--for example, in the Doomsday Clock continuity, Mikhail operating alone as Pozhar is drawn as if he is instead the elemental Firestorm. This is because Doomsday Clock does not understand Firestorm.]

"It's not because we're heroes" - Identity Crisis ending
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Identity Crisis #7
what a ride.
also Zatanna and Black Canary worrying about Atom.
also Oliver Queen, Green Arrow, telling Ralph Dibny, Elongated Man, to talk to his perished wife, "She can hear every word, I know", reminding us, that he does, in fact, know, because he was there, dead, in heaven...... that's....... okayyy..... wow.
and Dick Grayson desperately trying to get answer to call from Tim Drake (I also headcanon that after all that fiasco with heroes' families being in danger Dick is kinda panicking and needs to hear Tim's voice in the middle of the night - because judging from these panels he doesn't call him to reach out/help/reassure/show sympathy. he's afraid, and worried, and who knows, maybe even scared that Tim might do something drastic,,,,,, it's totally understandable for Dick to worry)
also Lorraine Reilly, Firehawk, quitting, because... you know... Firestorm's dead..... (yes, I somehow know who the hell Firehawk is. I'm surprised, too..)
also who the heck is this white-headed guy (and his companion), why don't I recognise him....
Also Clark Kent worrying about his mother and visiting her; and her reassuring Superman. Love them!
also Mr. Miracle not knowing what will happen to him and Big Barda in Countdown to Final Crisis LOL.
I tagged every character I recognised!!!! if you know more please tell me 💛
"The next few days aren't easy. And they're not supposed to be. But, like I said, slowly— eventually we go on with our lives. Not because we're brave. Or noble. And not even because we're heroes. We do it because that's life. The only difference today is... for the first time in a long time... we're reminded that the risk... isn't just ourselves."
— Oliver Queen.

Firestorm: (flying off to fuse with Loraine Reilly)
Jason Rusch: (inside Firestorm's head) So... want to tell me where we're going?
Firestorm: Look, I just... you might be getting a roommate.
Jason Rusch: (inside Firestorm's head) ... do I have to move the pool table?
Firestorm: WHEN DID YOU GET A...?! I almost fell for that.
(Billiard balls are heard clacking together)
Jason Rusch: (inside Firestorm's head) Fell for what?
Firestorm: Ugh...

What is the backstory of lorraine reilly in the head verse?
She's a classmate of Ronnie, Jason, and Maddie who's experimented on by Henry Hewitt of the 2000 Committee. The process transforms Lorrie into the first Firehawk and Hewitt into Tokamak. Henry seemingly dies of a terminal illness shortly after and his son Victor emerges as a supposed ally of the Firestorms. Vic and Lorrie briefly date before she discovers he was never Henry's son, but Henry himself living instead a new clone body stolen from the 2000 Committee. Lorrie accidentally kills Henry for good in the ensuing struggle, something she's deeply traumatized by, a trauma only exacerbated by the proliferation of Firehawks.
She and Ronnie tried to date after all of this, but Ronnie was dealing with his own trauma over his grief and anger creating Deathstorm and Dr. Stein's sacrifice to free him from Deathstorm's control, teleporting himself and Ronnie's Firestorm Matrix to the distant reaches of the universe.
Years after all of that, Lorrie herself is now a member--owing to her senator father's political connections--of the reformed 2000 Committee and head of their Firehawk Division, working closely with Dr. Stein, who's returned to Earth under mysterious circumstances but refuses to meet with or even acknowledge Ronnie, instead fixating on the cryptic "Project: Brimstone" and the Chamberlain siblings. Stein's odd behavior and change in personality seems to be tied to the same dark forces that have ultimately brought so much tragedy to Lorrie's life and the life of those around her: the Dark Gods of Apokolips.
She was also briefly part of a team consisting of herself, See-More, Killer Frost, Ridge, Kyd Wykkyd, Sparx and led by Edgar Yeung. Ed wanted to call them the Egg's Men, but the group shot down the idea and they broke up after a bizarre confrontation with Magog.

𝐀𝐍𝐈𝐌𝐀𝐋 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐃 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐒   ┇   accepting ♡
🐶 ---- Does your muse get excited easily? Is there someone (or particular people) that make them excited?
louise is a hard person to appease as far as i can tell. if anyone is going to fit her ideal type—be it platonic or romantic—they better be ready for a hot pursuit. there's far too many characters to name that make her feel a certain type of way. so i'm sticking with plastique (bette sans souci), firehawk (lorraine reilly) and deadshot (floyd lawton) as the three primary examples of louise's genuine crushes, obsessions and sexual interests based on canon evidence.
the first person she had a crush on was plastique when she was beginning her criminal career. frost was pretty expressive and shameless in her pursuit, yet backed away whenever bette displayed disinterest. they barely knew each other and kf was already in awe of her upon their first meeting after she got saved and plastique 'killed' firestorm. she seemed to get over the abrupt rejection and went after firehawk who was sorta similar to bette in terms of their appearances.
the thing that stands out to me the most is that killer frost always had a thing for redheads because she also flirted with firehawk and these were tough women on opposite sides of the law. arguably enough, louise was in a mourning state and probably wanted a distraction away from the inducing pain she felt from crystal's death.
unlike with bette, louise unleashed her sadism onto firehawk and it was more about trying to snuff the flames rather than pursue an actual love interest. she developed a weird, hate obsessive streak and it's mainly rooted with the fact firehawk was allies with firestorm. the only excitement is just the thrill of the kill and the thought of firestorm being devastated by his friend's death. plus, firehawk's blue flames trigger a euphoric response from louise since she thrives on heat source. blue fire burns the hottest does it not?
next we have deadshot. a great example of a healthy friendship she had in the comics. no matter what race he was depicted as, they're shown to be close friends in the suicide squad. floyd and frost had a knack for killing people, their banters were on point and even wholesome at times (in their own twisted way) and more importantly she holds floyd to a high regard when it comes down to their contract jobs. later in the suicide squad run she expressed sexual interest towards him and offered to hook up when they knew each other for a long time, but he turned her down because he didn't see her that way. she took it well and moved on rather quickly. they are still close friends to this day.
in conclusion, louise prefers intelligent, strong-willed, witty and stoic characters. if the person she's interested in is a redhead then it makes her sexually excited. she won't bother them if they show signs of disdain. with heroes like firehawk, frost will never hold back from being a creep. there's been times where she would be disrespectful on purpose and cause firehawk discomfort. i would call this 'one-sided mock flirting' at best. it's the sole reason why i don't like shipping frost with heroic characters because she will be the most unhinged bitch you've ever seen lmfao
🦒 ---- How does your muse feel about height? Do they like their height or are they ashamed of it?
her height makes her incredibly insecure because she got chubby as a teenager from eating fast food and suffered from body issues from how much of a fat slob she felt, which was accompanied by chubby short legs and muffin top pouring out whenever she wore tight jeans. it was obvious because of her shortness. even sucking her stomach in or wearing baggy clothes couldn't prevent from being viewed as a 'bloated beach ball' if you will.
louise got bullied by the popular girls in her school and developed low self esteem issues ever since. unfortunately it's how she got obsessed into incorporating workout routines everyday by playing sports such as netball or tennis until she finally slipped into the ideal image society wanted her to be: petite and adorable with a trim figure. nobody wants a chubby pig for a friend. it's been ingrained into her brain ever since.
most of the time louise wears high heels, platform shoes and boots with thick soles to seem taller than she actually is. loves to tower over people (mostly the men) when it comes to staircases. it's all about the power trip she receives from it, growing tired of getting picked on or underestimated just because she's 5'3''. she stopped growing the moment she hit her teenagehood and had to make up for her lack of intimidation in appearance by resorting to boosting her personality up. even before her criminal career she felt powerless and unheard among others.
living in nyc isn't for the weak willed and as a result to that, become louder than the city ever could be and i mean that in a "you listen to me! not the bustling of the city streets and cars passing us by!" kind of typical nyc attitude. it worked for her and others would usually notice her volume first before her height came in second place.
i would also like to incorporate that louise stands on her tippy toes whenever she's angry without even realising it until someone pokes fun at her for it. it's funny af.

Jerome / Jerry
Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, but Lorraine's major domo, Jerome, shares that name with Jerry Lundegaard from Fargo the movie. Jerry's full name is revealed over the phone by Reilly Diefenbach of GMAC.
Jerome also mentions fighting like a samurai, which brings Rashomon to mind.
And he refers to Scotty as young Skywalker, which suggests the future reveal of an evil father.
