 It has been suggested that the character is an homage to Dwayne McDuffie, who co-created the characters out of his imagination, who (at the time) lived in a different state from the show's producers, and thus communicated with them only by phone.Miranda/Mirage (voiced by Gavin Turek) is a young girl with special light manipulation powers, which allowed her to generate visible, realistic illusions by manipulating light into anything she imagined or remembered.Her older brother was Byron (aka Boom), and they lived with their grandmother following their parents' death.
