Day 109

Drawing Daredevil made me think of how I would make a blind superhero.

And this is the result, Blackout.

A blind martial artist with a magical ability to generate darkness or extinguish light. I guess the greatest contrast between him and Daredevil is that while Daredevil in combat is all about overcoming or mitigating his handicap with his sonar ability and other super senses, Blackout would be all about lowering his opponents to his level. Maybe I'm the only one here who thinks the idea of fighting a blind man in pitch darkness intimidating, I don't know.

I'm kind of wondering if he would make a better hero or villain, I honestly don't know (probably not an anti-hero, though. But that's not for any real reason beyond personal preference).

Come to think of it, it is obvious that I've struck gold here. Just think of how cheap the action scenes would be.
