The Midnight Sentinel
Creator: Jens H. Altmann
Character
Alexander Nichols
Detective David Hammer
Imogene (Alexander’s wife)
Friends
talk Alexander Nichols into attending a costumed party one night, and he takes
an old Star Trek Next Generation uniform and turns it into a super hero costume
for the party. It consists of a full black facemask, a dark blue bodysuit with
black shoulders; there are decorative black stripes that run down his arms to
the black gloves. A similar black stripe ran from his black boots up to his
waist, meeting in a decorative black pseudo-belt. A silver crescent moon
decorated his chest where the black tapered down. Like Batman, he was human,
but dedicated. He is trained in martial arts, but has no super powers.
During
one of his cases he had met Imogene and fell in love, and they soon married.
Detective
David Hammer is the police official in the cases.
In
the final story, Akiko Ando coauthors the last story with Jens Altmann. She and
Jens had married by then. They sent me a photograph of their wedding.
