After being shot by a rogue member of The Crows it seems Batwoman has big plans for Luke Fox (Camrus Johnson). Earlier this evening the series’ social media channels revealed a first look at Johnson suited up as Fox’s alter-ego Batwing!
“Honestly, it’s hard to explain how much it means to me to wear the Batwing suit and officially play my first superhero,” Johnson said in a statement. “The main reason I wanted to be in Batwoman was for this opportunity — to give kids like me another Black hero to look up to and relate to. It’s hard not to smile when I catch myself in the mirror with the bat symbol on my chest, and I’ll keep smiling through every fight scene, every awesome stunt, and every Gotham night where Batwing is finally in the field!”
Take a look at the costume in action in these two new photos:
