Caribbean Justice Alliance Comic Series Launched With Haitian Hero

Caribbean Justice Alliance

A comic featuring fictional characters from most of the Caribbean countries is set to be launched in the near future. The Caribbean Justice Alliance is an up and coming comic series and brainchild of Virgin Islands based Dominican Illustrator Albert Pierre. The series is based on of Pierre’s original miniseries called “Super Dominica”  which was launched in 2014 on the internet.

The success of Super Dominica inspired Pierre to produce a  Caribbean Super Heroes series which featured Super Heroes from every Caribbean country each having their own unique super powers based on their island’s culture, history, and features.

There are currently about 20 members of the league, the Caribbean Justice Alliance mini series will provide a new lens into the complex identity of black people in the Wester hemisphere. Caribbean Justice features a coalition of diverse super heroes that fight crime and environmental pollution on their islands and other nations around the Caribbean.

On the Super Dominica website Pierre says, “Creating a team of to 30 uniquely designed super heroes is not something that you do over night. We also want remind everyone that we don’t see any island as more important than the other. The remaining islands are on their way so let’s be patient.”  Taking the time to research the various cultures and ethnicities that make up the nations of the Caribbean allows for Albert Pierre to make up a diverse cast that reflects a more inclusive view of black identity in the Americas.

Meet Ray Venom of Haiti and Le Ponderoza of the Dominican Republic. What’s interesting about the two heroes is that Pierre created an additional character named Anacaona to represent the connection between the two historically rival countries, Haiti and the DR, that share the island of Hispaniola.

Ray Venom Fighting Class: Warrior, Brawler, Strategist, Survivalist.

During his hopes into discovering a new species of venomous stingrays at Stingray cove. Something happened that would change His life. A tremendous vortex opened up beneath the rifts where he was swimming. It was the Whistler​, he oriented a vortex to enter this world. A vortex that merged the negative realm with earth. Dr. Charlemagne found himself entangled with the very species he was hoping to find.

Forged within the force of fusion the vortex created. His spine was infused with that of the stingray’s. Horrified by his appearance, he went exile for some time. During that time to his astonishment, the venom secreted by the glands of the stingray seemed to have attacked the cancerous tumor cells within him.

This began an obsession into studying venom from both plants and animals. Fusing the philosophy of the cannon fist and his new power of venom gave birth to Ray Venom.
