    John Jones, the Manhunter From Mars!!


    I've always been more partial to the civilian look for Jonn. I resculpted a Hasbro head for this, using both New Frontier and his look in Miller's Dark Knight sequel. The big alien hand is from a Sideshow Star Wars Hammerhead and the regular hand from a Hellboy figure, suit is Hasbro Clark Kent, badge is Real Heroes and the gun not sure. Printed goods from here:http://www.printmini.com/printables/p1.html

              Oh wow that's neat. I love the mix of alien and 50's fashion, very pulpish. It's like Mad Men from Mars. His little belt clip badge is a terrific touch. This reminds me of a favorite tv series of mine that was cancelled way before it's prime, Alien Nation.
              I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

              If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                              Thanks all, I need to come up with a coat and fedora for him to complete the look. I think I'm going to have him the JLA in his civies.
