A Man Named Charlie

This is my Entry for the Original Character Design Contests, it's based on the "Charlie" Song, I think it's a good character to represent Boston and Cambridge. The idea is that this guy get's on the T (at Kendall Station) back in the '40s and is still riding the subway and helping the common folk. The original idea came out a little like The Spirit with The Question's face, so I decided to age him and make him look really poor so no one will suspect that he is really a Super Hero.
You can read about the history of this song, the rest of the lyrics and also listen to it at this MIT site.
