In the first proper game I played in, the other comic players used the combination of comic art and PBs so I sorta just got into the habit. I'm not really a huge fan of the artists on Batgirl other than Garbett (I love Nguyen's covers, but I'm eh on his panels, and I just can't with how Caldwell draws her.) Since the run is over, I keep adding more PB icons as Teresa is in more movies, while I've got p. much everything I can out of Garbett's issues (plus some To and Noto art where Steph appeared in other books).
Also I just don't think comic art really gives a great range of expression, there's a lot of expression that don't seem to translate well or just don't get drawn, so I like using a PB to get a more realistic range of faces that people make.
That said, I do need to do a cull of some of the PB icons and redo some of the comics ones, 'cause the ones I made are a bit shit so I don't like to use them as much. But IDK, I'm not planning to do a complete overhaul on the icons I use when it's not really hurting anyone, but hopefully this explains why, at least!
(I'm unscreening this just so anyone else who might've had the same question can see my response.)
