Doc Savage's real name was Clark Savage, Jr. He was a physician, surgeon, scientist, adventurer, inventor, explorer, researcher, and, as revealed in The Polar Treasure, a musician. A team of scientists assembled by his father deliberately trained his mind and body to near-superhuman abilities almost from birth, giving him great strength and endurance, a photographic memory, a mastery of the martial arts, and vast knowledge of the sciences. Doc is also a master of disguise and an excellent imitator of voices. "He rights wrongs and punishes evildoers." Dent described the hero as a mix of Sherlock Holmes' deductive abilities, Tarzan's outstanding physical abilities, Craig Kennedy's scientific education, and Abraham Lincoln's goodness. Dent described Doc Savage as manifesting "Christliness." Doc's character and world-view is displayed in his oath, which goes as follows:[2] “ Let me strive every moment of my life to make myself better and better, to the best of my ability, that all may profit by it. Let me think of the right and lend all my assistance to those who need it, with no regard for anything but justice. Let me take what comes with a smile, without loss of courage. Let me be considerate of my country, of my fellow citizens and my associates in everything I say and do. Let me do right to all, and wrong no man. ”
well i didn't actually say it was an afro but rather afro-like...I thought everyone knew that. while the look he used when he originally debuted as a pulp mag he had wavey hair. Most references of him depict this hairstyle.
Starchild wrote this would have been perfect had u found the traditional afro-like hairstyle. but still nice.
Doc Savage had an afro?!
Very cool! Whatever filters (Xero set maybe?) work very well here. I was a huge fan of the books as a teen and I smile as this even reminds some of those great old James Bama paperback covers. Really good stuff!
