Heart-breaking Drake. This might be my favorite one you've ever done, and I love your artwork. I can feel the raw emotion emanating out of that pic.
It reminds me that I love those two characters

That's a keeper on any day, Drake, not just Valentine's Day. Quite moving and unabashedly emotional, as it should be.
I was reminded by their embrace that although many readers (including Dawny, at times as written) despaired at their not being able to touch, Wildfire could share the shape and contours of a human being through his suit. That can matter almost as much.

I always wondered about how he mananged to keep his form in the shape of a muscular man. It was shown many times that his empty suit was just limp material, there didn't seem to be any hard forms in it to give it that structure. It must not have been too difficult for him to keep that shape, because he always did, even when using his powers offensively.

I always imagined the fabric of his suit was programed to give his body that shape when filled - kinda like that material in "Batman Begins" where it becomes solid when introduced to a power source (his anti-energy in this case)

Believe it or not, I never saw Batman Begins! The dvd has even been rented and spent time in my house, but I never had the chance to sit and watch it!!!
Anyway, your explanation is what I would think too, Drake. In fact, did they ever address this in his origin issue (way back in V2)?

In the issue where he comes back from "death", he says: "Once I re-enter it, the uniform will automatically formulate my raw energy to take a human shape again!"
So I guess his body actually takes on a human form (like Quislet taught him), but he needs the suit to do it.

The first post of every new museum exhibit has a directory of all the previous exhibits. So, if you go to the current, February Museum exhibit... "It must have been something I ate!" you'll see ALL the others. There've been a lot of interesting ones.
