Description

Johnny Reyes was an amateur dirt track racer when he was called to going the pro circuit but when a new corporate sponsor Devi LLC captures him and uses their new performing enhancing drug on him. he is then exposed to new highly volatile fumes from their nitrous booster system which rewrote his dna giving him super speed. now he fights to prove the true nature of this evil corporation but save the town he lives in from being infected by their evil ways

ok the Name for this was the first thing that came to mind, as I wanted to tackle the speedster hero arch type but make it my own as well. his over all build is very slimmed down as im want to have diff body types in the old comic arsenal and wanted to reflect the build of an actual runner and not the bulk you sometimes see in other speedsters. I love the costume of this one, I choose the colors because of the name it gave a race track type of vibe so I thought an American red and blue thing would work. gave him a visor to reflect the high speeds that would be racing thru and wanted some type of eye protection. the chest symbol was made to reflect the type of design one saw in old racing trophy's. the black boots and gloves where just a simple choice as I didn't want to have too much flare on the costume as a whole. and finally the blue pants with the white stars where just a added American racer bit, also its small but the belt buckle is actually a speedometer cuz...why not.
