My Redesign Of Roman Sionis: The Black Mask
Villains: Bulletstorm (Richard Cardinez)
Richard was raised by a backwoods family in New Mexico, and was taught how to use a gun at the age of 7. By the time he was 15, he was skilled enough to shoot flies out of the air with perfect precision. Unfortunately, the only thing he was good at was killing, and he began to develop a bloodlust. Because of this, Richard grew into a highly volatile and impulsive person. During his time in high school, Richard’s abusive brother Hector was killed during a night out with friends, and it is heavily suspected (though never proven) that Richard was the one responsible. After growing into adulthood, Richard moved away from his home town and decided to pursue a career outside of his family. Not much is known about what happened after he left, but 10 years later, Richard resurfaced as a bounty hunter & assassin. Unlike other assassins, Richard uses older firearms from before the 22nd century, due to the fact that it’s what he was raised with. Despite his old-fashioned methods, he’s skilled enough to shoot Black Streak in the leg at his top speed, which is faster than light.
Villains: Illusionist (Updated)
Not much is known about this mysterious enigma, not where he comes from, or how he got his powers. The only thing everyone knows is his motivation and how powerful he is. He’s a man who claims to have seen where humanity is going and how everything is going to end, and he doesn’t like it. He seeks to use his mind manipulation powers to take control of the world and move humanity in a direction that avoids armageddon in his eyes. Despite his seemingly well-meaning intentions, Illusionist isn’t above torturing his enemies both mentally and physically and even seems to take a sadistic pleasure in it. He also doesn’t kill unless it’s necessary, but when he says that, he means he doesn’t kill with his own hands. He instead usually kills people by hypnotizing people into committing suicide when he either no longer needs them, or if they simply annoy him. He eventually formed the supervillain team W.A.R, recruiting various terrorists, gangsters, criminals, and freaks to his side. He offered them all the ability to fulfill their dreams if they worked for him, promising them the privilege of shaping their own paradise in his new world after he's managed to conquer all life on planet Earth. One of his biggest disciples was Lady Lotus, who eventually carried on as the leader of W.A.R after Illusionist met his tragic end during a battle with the heroes.
SHADOW'S NEWEST DESIGN
Deciding to update her look, Shadow asks the fashionista hero Obscura and her father Lucius Jet to help design her a new costume. After much trial and error, they create a new costume that is bulletproof and resistant to electricity. It also comes packing some new hidden features: A special radar pulse she can emit by pressing a button on her sleeve that amplifies her echo location; Special adhesive boots and gloves that let her cling to and walk on walls; and a retrieval function that allows her to summon her staff if it is ever separated from her hand.
This design was heavily inspired by Tanya & Sindel (MK1), Okoye & She-Hulk (MCU), and Clea (Marvel Comics). What do you think?
Ra's Al Ghul Tribute (Die Tomorrow)
This is a song I found that I think fits Ra's Al Ghul from Beware The Batman perfectly. Give it a listen!
