Sonic Man Fan Art 4

  

This one was actually done by me, your humble webmaster and Sonic Man Archivist.  And CEO.  And COO.  I always thought it was easy to make up titles like that!  Regardless, I took an original picture of Sonic Man, scanned it and colored it in based on the information present in the WCCB Sonic Man Poster.  I am pleased with the results and and also find them interesting... .

This still is taken from the oh-so-rare Sonic Man Promo Flyer (which I will one day upload) which is dated 1978.  The mouth-slit in the costume is much more prominent than I would have thought previously.  This is intriguing, as there is no visible mouth-opening in the particular costume featured in the 1979 Charlotte Christmas Parade.  So, did the costume change in more ways than the color (see previous posts for what I mean by this)?  More mysteries involving Charlotte's #1 superhero... .  Until later, Sonic Fans...CLOMESURATE!!!
