Description The Question started out with no real origin. He was Vic Sage, a hard-hitting TV newscaster for ’s World Wide Broadcasting Co. (WWB). At WWB Sage worked alongside his loyal staff of Fred Pine, Al Kert, Bob Hasel and the lovely Nora Lace. The President of the company was Sam Star and usually near him were his children, Syd Star and Cecelia Star. Syd Star would be a foil for Sage throughout his time with WWB. Sage’s most important friend was Professor Rodor. He helped Sage create his new identity as the Question. Rodor had developed a special mask that Sage would be able to see, breathe and speak through, while looking solid on the outside. Sage carried the mask in his belt buckle. A special gas, Rodor developed and contained in capsule form, upon release would react with a chemical solution pre-sprayed on Sage’s hair and suit to change their color. This gas would also cement the mask to Sage’s face. The Question would fight crime in with his own brand of black and white justice, letting wrongdoers know that crime would no longer be tolerated in “his” city. Their actions would be dealt with by an objective standard of ethics. Sage would often times elicit information from criminals by threatening to expose them to the same gas that changes him into the Question. They assume the exposure is fatal, though its effects are most likely harmless. Another form of intimidation by Sage would be the calling card he’d leave baring a question mark, which releases that same special gas. The Questions joins the Justice league after the Thanagarian invasion of earth, and develops a close relationship with Huntress.

Finally, you've done the Question. This one is cool, though something feels off between the torso and the chest. Otherwise, nice work as always, Rob.

The pants seem a bit long to me. It might just be drawn that way, but it just looks a little mis-proportioned.

I used a Justice League Unlimited Trading Card and I checked the length of the pants, that is in fact how they are drawn, go figure
