it all started with a doodle i was working on a pitch for my version of the 80's JLI
led by Black Lighting
when i did this doodle of a new take on his costume trying to go for a retro 70's vibe
Matt saw it and said i want to do a show about him
at this point even pitching JLR was not a reality
this is the drawing i did for the pitch we did for JLR at WB
you scan see i went with a more tame version of Black lighting
even before we decided to pitch JLR for reel we were throeing around ideas for what would become super hero club house
i tweaked the design for Black Lighting and Chocolate Thunder was born
our first pass on super hero club house was a reality show fro super heroes still a fun idea but not what we really wanted
this is the drawing i did for our first pitch of super hero club house witch at the time was called super reality bights
this is the ink of the redesign i did for Chocolate Thunder when we decided to turn it in to super hero clubhouse and ditch the reality show premise
and this is the color comp of Chocolate Thunder
