I was flipping through the Pulp Fantastic and came across the Archetypes section, and one popped out me:

MASKED AVENGER

And that settled it.  I was gonna make a Green Hornet/Crimson Avenger tribute character, with a twist.

A Filipino playboy and his African-American valet/chauffer by day, scourge of the underworld at night!

Introducing….

THE TIGER BEETLE AND JAZZ BUNGO

I looked up insects of the Philippines, and the tiger beetle jumped out at me.

I mean, no color in the character’s name, which is fine (though tiger beetles come in black, brown and green) but OF COURSE I’m gonna take a beetle name.

And yes, that’s a saxophone on Jazz Bungo’s back.

I’ll work out all the character details later.

CRIMINALS, BEWARE!  THE TIGER BEETLE STRIKES!
