Black Watch “The Beginning” Expands USC Universe
The creation of Black Watch came about as a way to compliment my Flagship character Dreadlocks. Dreadlocks has carried the load of the Urban Style Universe for the mainstay so I felt now is the time to unleash the whole Universe starting with Jihad A.D. and then Black Watch. The name Black Watch stems from the activist group X Clan a revolutionary Hip Hop group who was influential in my creativity and understanding of the ancient mysteries of Kemet (Egypt).
I see in the name Black Watch the Universe, which is made up of dark matter, after contemplating this intense reality I decided the first super hero team from Urban Style Comics would be Black Watch “Protectors of the Universe”.
After the last years of Dreadlocks transformation, the gods responding to Dreadlocks abilities being limited to a single universe, summon Pharohn to gather a team of unique heroes.
This team will become the new protectors of the nexus universe, a parallel universe in the future. Pharhon promptly dispatches to various location throughout the universe to gather the gods super team.Third Eye, Mizzraiim, Queen Nubia, and Ragamuff led by the beautiful Sheba, Blackwatch will be guided well.
Wow! Who is this artist? I think this art is awesome and the characters are so cool.
I ran into this site while browsing for other Black owned comic companies out there, proving to my friends in my local comic shop that there actually are Black creators on the come up, besides myself and a few others. As an ex-member of the Brooklyn based Black Watch during the 89-91 era and apprentice to the ‘Architect’ (Paradise), I was proud to see a creative brother with beautiful characters utilizing the name that I was once so proud of. I can see the strong influence that Kemet has in your work and now I know for a fact that it was all worth something to many more people than I gave it credit for. Perhaps it was my bitterness at the natural way things resolve themselves or waning faith in the Movement…nevertheless, I am inspired by your work and reinvigorated to finish my own. This is what art is about!
Stay strong and keep it coming, brother. You got ‘it’.
