Looking for Trouble
#2
Little did the criminal that had been mentioned know that the mansion he was inhabiting was home to someone who wasn't going to take the fact he was there very well. Not very well, at all. In fact, one might say it was going to have consequences for the individual should the current owner and defacto landlord of the property who was asleep at the time in a cave located beneath the manor find out that someone had intruded on his property. When a loud noise of some items being moved around was heard by Matthew, it startled him out of the bed that he had made. The bed was a king sized one, and had sheets that were silk with an abnormally high thread count to them, somewhere in the 500s or so, but he had just wanted something high quality when he had made the bed. Noticing the ragged and worn appearance of the costume he had gone to sleep in,  Matthew decided a change of costume was in order. Who should he look like during his outing today to investigate who was in his home without permission? Red X had been done, and so he didn't want to abuse that identity too much because he didn't want people to figure out that he was Red X. Thus he needed to think of someone new to mimic the costume of. Batman was out, because he was not like the wearer of the costume, whoever that happened to be. Therefore he needed to think very carefully about who he could impersonate today. 

Deathstroke the Terminator might have been a good choice, had he not been a villain or criminal. Still, the chances of anyone knowing about the existence of such an individual here in the Omniverse were slim. Perhaps he could get away with wearing that costume. In any case, Matthew was unwilling to take the risk of wearing such a costume, as he didn't want to piss off any mercenaries. Hmm. Perhaps he could simply design his own costume? Now there was an idea that did possess merits. Not only was it something he could do, but he'd need his own costume at some point anyway, an identity that was truly his. 

First and foremost, the outfit had to be lightweight and flexible. Full armor like that worn by Batman, or Slade or similar was impractical, at least with his current body and level of skill. Since that was the case, he needed to come up with something lightweight, but that was still durable enough to withstand the blaster pistols and other weapons used by the criminals, and the white clad soldiers of the Empire. In short, he needed a lightweight armor.
