I think is ok to show this since a page with him was posted on DC Comics' The Source.> [link]

This was a fun design to create. The character description said something about a traditional superhero suit and a stylised teardrop instead of the "S" of Superman. And he is Captain Lachrymose, so I thought to myself: "he is a emo kid".
So the hair style, pin bracelets and belt, just as the striped sleeves were easy. Then I just had to figured out the teardrop logo. Just turned the superman logo upside down and added a "all crying eye" right there. There you go!
Cheer up masons!

Those characters from issue 2's cover and first page are the only characters in the series that I haven't designed so far.
For these, design credits go to Brian Bolland.

Interessante esse design. Não conheço esse personagem, mas confesso que esse estilão meio bizarro dele me deixou curioso.
