I really like the idea of Nightshade. Having a substantial shadow is kind of neat!

Similar to Doctor MidNight of DC & JSA. Able to see in total darkness and uses a black-out bomb to render foes stumbling fools.

Origin story of the Blue Lady was interesting - not terribly well drawn but decent enough plot. Strange that she hasn't been revived since - lots of opportunities for character development as she is a novelist and able to travel anywhere for research. The naff costume probably didn't help - but that could be changed.

Did the writers of the Batman 66 TV show, crib from Amazing Man? ''The Diabolical Vulture waits only for his secret tunnels to join up with the New York subways ...then he will launch his horrible attack! Will the Amazing Man stop him in time?'
