THE ADVENTURES OF LIGHTNING LAD Trailer

[desertfoxfilms]

Static shock vs lightning lad. Who would win? I say... Static because he has more experience even if it looks cool when lightning lad charges up for a blast. Course they both might not be able to hurt each other because their both lightning and electricity powered. Lightning vs electricity

[comicbookboy89]

@desertfoxfilms I'd say they'd probably neutralize themselves, each immune to each other's powers. Inevitably, they would team up.

[tfwolfgirl]

looks like fun, but you did not really show what powers he has.

[comicbookboy89]

@tfwolfgirl Yeah, I tried to keep a lot of stuff hidden until the film came out.

He is able to absorb and control electricity, and direct it at other things in the form of lightning. When charged, his body is dangerous to the touch -- hence the rubber gloves.

Thanks for watching!

[VibroBrian]

you understand that there is already a lightning lad from he legion of superheros and that it is probably breach of copyright to use that name also you costum is similar to that of captain marvel so dc arnt gonna be pleased if they see this video you should put up a disclaimer or something

[comicbookboy89]

I am aware. The similarity to Captain Marvel is coincidence. Obviously, there are only so many variations on the generic superhero theme. The Lightning Lad name indeed is not unique, I am aware of the DC Comics character. Are you aware of how many characters there are called "Sandman?" There are many characters that share the same name. It shouldn't be an issue. Thanks for watching VibroBrian....

[badgerandbutterfly]

is that the music from the spiderman trailer?

[comicbookboy89]

Yes, from the teaser trailers of the first SPIDER-MAN film. The version I used has no lyrics though (obviously).

[wolfiepaw]

I watched the movie in my Life Skills class (Ms. Topkis?). That was hilarious, because at first I wasn't sure what they meant by 'rubber trojan'.

[comicbookboy89]

Haha, yes, thank you. Hope you gained some significant Life Skills from this superheroic teenage sex allegory...

gay

[comicbookboy89]

Should I even reply?

[nepalihercules]

no need to reply

[comicbookboy89]

I won't reply then.

[nepalihercules]

fine

[HorrorPunk067]

alright thanks man really appreciate it!

[HorrorPunk067]

alright i understand lol. but if u cant make a video can u tell me how u made the mask, like really indepth. like the material, the lacing, and any sewing that u did ect. That would be great!

[comicbookboy89]

I don't know what else to add. The material was from a crappy Halloween costume. You know that really cheap material used for most costumes? There was no sewing involved. Just poked holes in the back and laced it up like a shoe. I just wrapped it around the front and sides of my face. If I wasn't wearing the hat, you would be able to see my hair. I used clear nail polish to reinforce the holes I poked in for the laces.

[HorrorPunk067]

Sick trailer! i also saw a picture of ur Rorschach costume which i thought was pretty awsome. can u tell me how you made the mask? please!!!

[comicbookboy89]

First of all, thanks for the kind words. Means a lot from a fellow Hypester. The Rorschach mask was a thin white sheet stretched very tightly around my face and laced up in the back with shoestring. I picked a fabric that was easy enough to see through when stretched thin and colored in thick felt pen. It's important to color black over the spots your eyes will be because it makes it a bit easier to see. Let me know if you have any questions.

[HorrorPunk067]

thats sick. you know i have been looking everywhere for intstruction on how to make rorschachs mask. so could u possibly think aobut making a video about making the mask?!!!

[comicbookboy89]

Sorry buddy, I just don't have the time. Really. Not exaggerating. I'm freaking swamped with film production work.

[KojiTsunami]

Looks pretty good, but I must warn you, you won't be able to sell it. Not legally. The name "Lightning Lad" is taken.

[comicbookboy89]

The name "Sandman" is shared by multiple characters and companies. There are other examples.

[SpikeRazzor]

0:15 - 0:16 ROTFLMAO! Guy just falls over and dies XD.

[comicbookboy89]

Hey thanks man! Let me know which "annoying freshman" you are in class. We will totally have to get together and make a film for class this year.

[BoondocksOfBoston]

Looks pretty funny!

[comicbookboy89]

Thanks man!

[RedRightHand6]

That was fucking awesome...great humor and delivery.

"...is that supposed to mean--"

"Silence!"

[comicbookboy89]

Thanks man.

[RedRightHand6]

I don;t usually give out praise. But Hypesters are an exception...and that actually was a god vid.

[comicbookboy89]

Ah, a fellow Hypester! And one with good taste I hope! Thanks for the props.

[comicbookboy89]

Thanks. I might put more of the film up as time goes on. It is finished and is 54 mins long. I haven't put it all up because it is still making its way through the film festival circuit.

[daviddens4d]

LOL! That was great! Lookin' forward to more!

[comicbookboy89]

Thanks, yeah, LIGHTNING LAD is also a DC COMICS character that is completely unrelated.

[kpangan]
