First Look at Aquaman’s Other Team: Vostok-X

News

From DC Blog:

“Conceived in a controlled test aboard a Russian space station, the man known as Vostok-X was genetically designed to be the perfect cosmonaut. Heightened endurance, enhanced strength and intelligence and most importantly to the scientists overseeing the project, he was psychologically programmed through intense experimentation to embrace human isolationism. Vostok struggles with making emotional connections with other people.

“He is equipped with a jetpack that enables him to fly, though not at tremendous speeds, and a helmet that allows its wearer to breathe in any environment.

“Vostok-X was the tenth attempt at creating the perfect cosmonaut. The others are said not to have survived.

“Vostok-X has not been seen for years.”

Skitch Commentary: I love the international feel of these characters. That said, again without color, this looks like a very generic costume. I really hope DC releases some color versions of these characters!
