Lord Blackstock

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kevin Sack, Lord Blackstock is a fictional character appearing in the Wildstorm comic book Planetary by Warren Ellis. He is one of the Century Babies, and a member of Axel Brass' group. As with the other members of Axel's team, he represents a pulp magazine archetype, in this case the man raised by animals in the jungle. He is most obviously a parody of Tarzan, complete with a noble title that resembles "Greystoke", but his name is an obvious play on Ka-Zar's real name of Kevin Plunder.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

In Planetary #17 it was revealed that he was the father of Jakita Wagner. Also in #17, Blackstock displayed some possible unusual sexual proclivities, implying that, prior to his return to European society in his late twenties, he had not chosen to mate with the local Africans, but instead with other unnamed parties, possibly wildlife.
