Yes, these guys are your (grand)parents' superheroes!
If the "Trinity" is the backbone of the JLA, these three are the heart-and-soul of the JSA!
WILDCAT- Former world heavyweight boxing champ Ted Grant had gone the distance with Joe Louis. The right hook Louis felt is the same that a lot of criminals have felt! Wildcat has helped trained a lot of today's heroes (including Batman, Nightwing, and Black Canary).
THE GREEN LANTERN- Before Abin Sur gave Hal Jordan his power ring, Earth already had a Green Lantern. Alan Scott found a magic lantern, from which he fashioned a ring to fight against injustice. Unlike modern Lanterns, Scott's ring had a weakness to wood, not the color yellow.
THE FLASH- Jay Garrick is the man that would inspire many to take up the mantle of "The Flash". Barry Allen was a life-long fan even before the accident that would grant him super-speed. The others to follow Allen all held a deep respect and admiration for Jay Garrick.
Yes, this is a "character piece"! Get used to it! |

Okay, I did a Wonder Woman pic. WANA MAKE SOMETHIN' OF IT!
Sometimes you need a little inspiration to give you a kick in the pants. So, I was watching the animated Wonder Woman dvd yesterday and decided to rework my Wonder Woman character.
Big ups go out to KBK for the Wonder Woman tiara and breast plate (also, for the Jennely textures).
P.S. Do any of you realize how hard it is to find a pictue of an ancient Greek city that's NOT in ruins? |

Oh, no. The Black Beetle is not the same happy-go-lucky person the Blue Beetle is. And he's here to let you know it!
He's starting by making a statement. This year's competitors are safe, but, no one said anything about last year's competitors. And the question is how much longer are this year's competitors safe?! |

After an EPIC BATTLE (so epic, in fact, that I couldn't be bothered to depict it! ) with the faeries, Ice & Blue Beetle are a little worse for wear.
And to make matters worse, Lady Heromorph's little bender is definitely kicking in... 
Oh, I almost forgot! Special thanks to petercotton for the torn clothing maps. |

Okay. Let's clear this up: Blue Beetle is NOT A DIRECT INSPIRATION for Nite-Owl. So, just because Nite-Owl has... shall we say... intamacy issues, doesn't mean Beetle does, too!
GOT IT?
P.S. How do you like the new Phantom Lady character? |

My last pic of HIGHLAND LASS didn't seem to garner much attention (and absolutely no comments). Maybe it was because I started with an action shot of a new character. Maybe it was because, as a new character, you didn't really learn anything about her.
So, I enlisted the help of POWER GIRL to re-introduce her to the Heromorph audience. |

Hmmm... Not sure if Mindwave put the mental image in everyone's mind or if she just told everyone, but, her nickname for Virtue seems to have stuck!
And again, poor Black Beetle gets the blame! Someone loses their pants in battle? BEETLE'S FAULT! A dress suddenly appears on someone else? BEETLE'S FAULT! It's not like Beetle controls Mindwave or anything! YEEESH!
Anyone ever consider that Matrixblur has reality altering abilities? BLAME HIM FOR A CHANGE! |

Oops. Ever had one of those days? First you have to fight cybernetic ninjas, and then BATMAN shows up. And ya know he ain't real happy with you. His (sometime, once, who-knows) girlfriend seduced you... Oh, and then DUMPED YOU when you were of no more use to her! That's how your morning began, remember?

As far as I know, this is the first Kolchak 3d rendering on the net. So, not only is this the first, as of now, this is the BEST 3D RENDER OF KOLCHAK ON THE ENTIRE INTERNET!
