THE CHALLENGER~ ADOLESCENT SUPER-HERO~!

I liked characters like Daredevil & Batman
because they did NOT have super powers,
but, relied on their smarts & rigorous
physical training. It was in this spirit
that I created The Challenger, a loser
ex-boxer who recommitted himself
to strengthening himself and vowed
to never lose another fight, ever
again ! Here, we see him using
his staff to thwart thugs in
a getaway car chase !

  1. Oh my goodness! I love the new header!


    And speaking of regular-ish superheroes being that much more awesome...have you seen KickAss????

  2. Negative; but I am a big fan of John Romita Jr who illustrated the graphic novel. My comic shop, by the way, did not have that cool book you posted about on Soul-Quake. I will run into one day, however, and then, it will be MINE !

  4. Blackjack ! I totally forgot about that character. I think drawings of him are in the Brian Wenny repository of forgotten comic art.

  5. Alls I know is, SOMEBODY is gonna pay for that windshield! Thats a lot of paper route money for the CHALLENGER to have to cough up!
    "Two dollars!"...ad infinitum.

    Seriously, love the whole scene, nice!
