SKETCH A DAY 52: OBSIDIAN

I'm back on track with my "sketch a day" now and I actually really liked the way this one came out. Obsidian is a DC character from Infinity Inc./JSA/Manhunter. I always thought he had a cool costume and powers back when he was first introduced in the 80s. But seeing it without the shadow effect, I also remember thinking it was awful looking, lol. As long as he keeps the powers on, it's still cool though. With Manhunter cancelled, I figured Obsidian was going into comic limbo. Even with his JSA membership, they never really even used him and they have too large a cast. But the new writers on JSA say that they have plans for him and that he's a fav of theirs. Sounds good to me. Hopefully he'll start appearing some more.

Thanks, guys. Glad you like this one. I have to admit, this turned out to be one of my favs so far. Funny that it was one of the quickest to do to.
