New Beetle from Superior Foes of Spider-Man

Here is my version of the (new) Beetle from Superior Foes of Spider-Man (written by Nick Spencer and drawn by Steve Lieber). I only checked out one issue, but it seems pretty cool: A bunch of second rate villains, down on their luck, trying to get by. The art is more simple and less flashy than the other current stuff. More reminiscent of series such as the current Hawkeye or Daredevil.

I gave her colors more in the spirit of the old version of the character, to make it more colorful.

(does he even say it anymore?)
