Black Lightning (Marvel Legends) Custom Action Figure
I used a Luke Cage figure, RE-sculpted his entire hair do. Removed Luke's collar and sanded down his chest and his stomach area then RE-sculpted his collar, sculpted his face mask, sculpted belt and buckle.Re-painted his flesh with a lighter brown. I tried to match his colors with the comic book referrence I had on hand. Let me tell ya...those darn lightning bolts down his arms,chest and back weren't easy my friends. A - L O N G - two hours was spent on those..lol. ENJOY  Please wait... |

I love the classic look!
the head sculpt is smooth and the lines are nice
You really captured this character well.
Black lightning was a character created by Tony Isabella in the 70s. He wrote about 10 issues before being canned or retiring (depends on who you believe). The series ended after one issue without Isabella. Black Lightning eventually team up with Batman's outsiders. Originally he received his powers from his belt (made by some professor). He then became Meta and can generate his Electricity. Isabella's beef with DC resulted in Black Vulcan being created for the super friends show....ooopps, showing my age again.
Great job!!!!
His character in superfriends tho was called Black Vulcan - for some reason they couldnt use the black lightning name
And yeah Black Vulcan makes an Appearnce in Harvey Birdman Attorney-At-Law
