way back when(i am going to say the 90s) i remeber hearing about a hero that would use mirrors , in i belive his boots. he did this so that the villains he was fighting would see there own horrified reflections when he kicked them in there face......but i can not remeber the name of the hero, the name of the comic or anything, so do any of you guyes know who this is?

Could it be Kick you in the Face Man? Do you recall if he appeared in a DC, Marvel, Image, independent comic?

No idea, but now I want to know... so I made this comment so that I may follow this thread in the hopes that someone knows...

No idea, but it sounds like a reeeeeeally oddball character concept. And considering we're already talking comic characters... that's saying something.

The only guys I know of who extensively make use of mirrors as part of their shtick are Mysterio and, naturally, Mirror Master.

That sounds oddly familiar, but I'm not placing it immediately.

I have a vague... very vague... memory of something from the 90's... probably Image comics, the Rob Liefield era. It wasn't mirrors per se, but steel toe boots polished into mirrors.

Darn it, I've nothing beyond that.

So far I'm thinking someone from DCs Hitman series, there are lot of oddball characters in that one, or someone from Marvel's Spider-Man series, He seems to run into a whole slew of nutjobs and costume loons.

Don't know the answer, but going to take the oppurtunity to ask a question that has been bugging me for a while.

In early 2000's there was a comic about a superhero high school. One of the characters was a undead/zombie kid. The character was suicidal due to being a walking corpse. Does anyone remember what the name of this title was, it was by some independent company. It was like that family movie Sky high except with adult themes.


Way to many alts.

Found it. It was a Wildstrom comic called The Intimates. Turns out it was only a mini, I always thought that it was an ongoing that got canceled. I remember it being a fun read.

The character I was thinking of was called Dead Kid Fred.

Most fun read since early New Warriors for me. I thought it was a series as well. I should track down the issues I'm missing because I think I stopped at 9. I stopped collecting not due to dislike, but due to stop collecting at all.
