Are my morts too mortlicious for ya baby!!?

In the good old year of 1949 there is no finer example of Golden Age mort than Tiger Shark.

Dr Gaige a submarine expert and oceanographer decided it was a great idea to put on a stripy costumed diving suit and became the Tiger Shark. He hired a gang of pirates to become his hench man and fought Batman and Robin in Detective Comics  #147 seeking a ship filled with diamonds.
Batman knew that Dr Gaige was Tiger Shark due to a tracer placed within his boot so gave him the Batsubmarine to modify. Gaige equipped the submarine with gadgets to sabotage it. After another confrontation they unmasked Tiger Shark to confirm their suspicion was right…

Tiger Shark is made from a DCUC Orion, fimo and citadel paints.


Alpha the experimental man.  No more Silver Age mort than he! First appeared in 1962 in Detective Comics #307.

Alpha is an android created by Dr. Burgos in a busy week. He has super strength but the emotional age of a child.
 He helps Batman fight some masked Greek bandits and along the way he falls in love with Batwoman.
In the end he is quite a gallant old android as he sacrifices his life to save hers and so we have the start and end to Alpha.
Alpha is quite a simple custom, using a DCD Joker, epoxy and Tamiya paints.
