Today, I present to you my character designs for a CBM film series that my friends and I have created called "Young Justice", which is the working title. Click the jump! Hope you all enjoy!

What's happening, peeps! This article will kickstart my future articles about my original creations that my friends and I have created to share with you all. Below there will be designs, character descriptions, and plot outlines. Without further ado, I present to you:

YOUNG JUSTICE

Young Justice is a film series that will follow three high school boys that start to develop powers after they snuck into a science facility and were exposed to alien technology containing crystals that possesed the ability to give any bystander extrodinary powers. There will be four to five films that follow their story as they grow older and come against new threats and meet other powered beings, like themselves. The film is set in a fictional city that is similar to New York City, Boston, Seattle, and Salt Lake City: Belcoast City, which is located on the East Coast (in the films).

Alright! Lets start with the three main characters!

Charles "Charlie" Baker Jr. AKA Heatwave

 


(Charlie, With glasses, Heatwave (First costume), Charlie's evolution (last film), Full power, Heatwave (Second costume/rebirth), Full power w/ new costume)

Age: 16-19 (Explained below)
Height: 6'0
Weight: 151 lbs
Occupation: High school/College student
Powers: Heat related (Control and create fire, can turn body into smoke, control objects that are heated AKA "heatkinesis"...so he could slow down a bullet basically), enhanced strength, agility, sense, etc.

Charlie has a natural sense of responsibilty and feels the need to help anyone, even if he doesn't know them. Die hard comic fan. When he becomes 18, his mother would have been murdered by one of his arch enemies and he would go down a dark road, but always stay on the right side of justice.

The age thing. Throughout the film series, our heroes will get older. But now let me explain the blue flames. Durning the climax/final fight in the movie, Charlie finds it within himself his true power, the final evolution of his power. The hottest fire in the universe. And he's finally able to engulf himself in flames. So yeah...its pretty sweet. And what I mean by "Rebirth" is because of him unlocking that power and using it in a big way to defeat the enemy, his body wasn't exactly ready for that so he dies saving everyone. BUT. He comes back because someone finds a way to do it. Moving on.

Patrick "Pat" Blake AKA Boost
 

(Patrick, Costumed)

Age: 16-23
Height: 5'10
Weight: 148 lbs
Occupation: High school student/College student and intern at Rev Records (record company)
Powers: Super speed, can conduct electricty through vibration, enhanced strength, agility, senses, etc.

Patrick is the big goof ball of the trio. He has been Charlie's friend since middle school. He has an interest in the music industry and producing so he interns at one of the biggest record companies. Also a die hard comic fan. Patrick is the one who brings Charlie back to life four years after the final film. Moving on.

Ian Henshaw AKA Zero


(Ian, Costumed, Evil Zero)

Age: 16-19
Height: 5'11
Weight: 150 lbs
Occupation: High school student
Powers: Telekinesis, Enhanced strength, agility, sense, etc. (His senses become so powerful that he can feel movement all around him with his eyes clothes, as in he could feel an enemy coming up behind him, like Spider Sense)

Ian is the quiet, misunderstood one of the trio. He's been bullied all of his life and has had anger built up inside of him for a long time. But he chooses to be a hero. Well, at first... A few years after gaining his powers, he started becoming extremely powerful and figured if he is, then no one can stop him from hurting and killing people who wronged him. In the final film, he IS the enemy. He becomes the most powerful superbeing on the planet.

Now to move onto the first films main baddie.

Robert Donovan AKA Alpha



(Robert, Diseased, Alpha)

Age: 49
Height: 6'0 (6'3 after gaining power)
Weight: 162 lbs (195 after gaining power)
Occupation: CEO of PrimeTech
Powers: Energy projection (these energies can disingrate people), flight, strength, enhanced senses, speed

Robert Donovan is the owner of the industrial company known as PrimeTech. For twenty years, Robert had been suffering from an unknown disease that was caused by an exposure to an unknown element. For years he has tried to prolong his life, but has come short UNTIL one fateful day, a few soldiers, whose weapons were created by PrimeTech, in Pakistan find five large crystals that were carried in a meteor. He thinks that they could save his life. He uses two of the crystals (the other three give our heroes their powers) for the experiment he conducts with the help of a highly intelligent intern. Unfortuantely, the experiment goes wrong and causes and explosion at the science facility, which also causes the explosion that gives the three boys their powers. The results of the explosion: his rebirth. He is given incredible powers and decides to wreak havoc on anyone who stands in his way.

Now moving onto the lesser heroes and villains that will be featured in the future films. First, we have the members of:

One day, Robert Donovan notices Terrance's great intellect and gives him a chance to work with him on the private project that would save Robert's life.

One fateful night, he was caught in the crossfire of a gang shootout near an old nuclear powerplant. One of the gang members held him to gun point, which caused Kai to accidentally fall into a vat of toxic chemicals. He was suppose to be dead, but he wasn't. He crawled out of the vat, not able to control his new powers. He couldn't walk right or lift anything up. His limbs would stretch out everytime.

Running on adrenaline, he quickly got up and ran home. From that day, he felt different. He didn't grow or get muscluar yet, but he felt an odd energy. One day, while walking home from school, he's jumped by a few gang members, but to his suprise, and theirs, he starts to show true strength! He takes them all down, throwing them into walls, breaking bones with a single punch and kick. This sudden feat of strength causes him to be bed ridden.

Obvious troll is obvious.

Haha, when I saw the Bloodsuckers tagged as "Hungry and Full", I got a laugh outta that.

These designs are pretty great though, and the character concepts themselves are cool too. I know how difficult a good concept is to develop from passing thought to possible pop culture icon. Yeah, the names could do with some work too.

I really like this. Nice world you've set up and nice use of Heromachine, but I think that it got really over excessive. After alpha I think ti should've stopped, also some of the costumes don't seem right for a project like this. I see this has more of a Chronicle not an Avengers. I do like the use of more minorities in the overall lineup of characters though.

I think costumes could improve if they seemed more makeshift. Like this Spider-Man costume vs. this one.

The zero concept is cool, but I think that's been overdone. Maybe the popular guy is the one that becomes evil. But hey it's not my story.

Overall nice job, and there are great ideas here. Also I'd think of a new name ASAP.

Thanks guys! When you say name change, do you mean the super names or their real name?

Also this is just a rough idea, so things could change.

Thanks for the feedback!

I like a lot of the names and stories. The designs are solid too.

Maybe some more females would help, but that's up to you.

Anyway, thumbs up and cheers!

not trolling just my opinion, if you're gonna try new things DO NEW don't do generic names.
