The Human Shield Revised
Jan. 23rd, 2015 09:10 pmI revised the Human Shield design after a comment from
dr_tectonic asked about something a bit more revealing. It makes sense actually. An invulnerable hero probably doesn't need much of a costume. It reminds me of the Laurel Kent characters in the "Legion of Super-Heroes" universe, a 30th century descendant of Superman who inherited his invulnerability. As such, she wore very little in terms of a costume (usually a glorified bikini with no shoes). I prefer this hairy-chested hero instead, but she was pretty cool.
I may go the force-field route power-wise so people don't accuse me of ripping off Laurel Kent. It works either way for me.

From this photo, my take is this guy is more flame-retardant. ;) Everything he's wearing is fire proof, and he either generates fire, or he can survive the heat in the kitchen...
