Description

The most powerful member of the Imperial Guard and also the best known, as he's appeared many times with and without the rest of the team. The character was very loosely based on Superboy/Superman featuring another great costume design by Dave Cockrum. I"m interested in buying more of these Imperial Guard pieces if you have any to sell.

Cool. This is another sleek and beautiful costume by Cockrum. I wonder if he got the idea for the Mohawk from Kirbys Omac who was first published a few years before Gladiator.

Cockrum actually used a mohawk prior to OMAC back in 1972 for the Legion character Tyr. You can see the original design here: https://www.comicartfans.com/gallerypiece.asp?piece=1446884
