James "Flyboy" Barcus

UPDATE: NEW DESIGN SHEET, NEW ABILITIES



James Barcus
Aliases: Flyboy
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 210 lbs*
Race: Greek/American

Abilities: Small arms training, Hand to hand combat training
Powers: Flight (max speed Mach 1), Strength (2 tons max lift), Durability (*super dense musculature, skeleton, skin). NOT BULLETPROOF.

James Barcus was part of a special black ops team in the New American army along with several other metahumans. His natural ability to fly at Mach 1 and his small size made him perfect for recon, but he was dishonorably discharged for striking a superior officer and anger issues.

James bums around the country, occasionally working construction jobs or lending a hand as local muscle. Since he can fly, he never pays for transportation. One of the only things he owns is the B-13 Flight Suit, which he stole from the army on his way out. It allows him to fly at full speed without tearing his skin off.

I likes! Can you show us more of the suit? The back view is a good start, but the rest of the back would be useful. Also I'd like to see his gloves/gauntlets more clearly, in a non-foreshortened view. Maybe a detail of the helmet to better see how the hoses hook up?

James out of armor looks quite badass, and I look forward to pages!

Thanks Kent! I'll have to add the other views for the suit. I'm still debating on exactly how to tell the intro story, but that might have to wait until after Black Stripe.

I do know it involves him getting into a bar brawl, though.

I had almost forgot about this character. I'm totally bringing him to VOID this year.

EDIT: After looking at this character for like 5 seconds, I realize that I am dangerously close to creating a Wolverine clone. I'm gonna have to do a complete redesign on him. Not the suit, though.

Yeh, he totally looks like Wolverine  xD
But DUUDE, I like this guy. Just reading his bio, I can see how it's gonna be really great to battle him, storywise. Great antagonistic guy  *_*

Bent we all know he needs to fight one of my characters. Rocketeer gone bad vs Sentai realness.

NEW STUFF!

I'm finally working on this guy again. I changed him to look less like a Wolverine clone, and gave him some additional powers.

The goal of the intro battle will be to set up a situation for him that will force him to hide his powers as much as possible. That and obviously establish his personality.

Let me know what you think!
