Commentary
In Judo, Tsukuri “is
a term used to denote the moment and position that exists when you have broken
your opponent’s balance so that it is easy to apply a throwing technique,
while at the same time you have positioned yourself in the proper position to
throw (courtesy of the International
Judo Federation: the History of
Judo).” It seems to be a
fitting name for this female ninja.
I’ve been informed that this character is, in fact, an original character created for Justice League, and I’m inclined to believe it until I hear otherwise.
