Character info: Solar Flare is the modern day superhero son of a previous entry I did for the 30 Character Challenge, The Silver Spark. He’s a very quiet individual, probably caused by witnessing the apparant death of his parents at a young age. However, he’s extremely powerful and a valuable asset to his allies. I first created this character when I was a kid; at that time, he was a kid superhero named Cosmic Kid. When he got older, he changed his name to Solar Flare. I have two possible storylines for comics where Solar Flare will show up…not sure which one I will use yet, but his origin will remain the same. Based on which comic he ends up in, determines his interaction with teammates and his final costume design.
