SHADOW STORMTROOPER (a.k.a Stealth Trooper; Blackhole Trooper)

BACKGROUND:
Shadow Stormtroopers were first created by the Imperial agent codenamed Blackhole. Instead of plastoid their armor was cast with stygian-triprismatic polymer, to provide sensor stealth and make the armor black in color. After Blackhole's disappearance during the Galactic Civil War, the Shadow Stormtroopers found their way into other imperial groups. Most notably as part of Carnor Jax's private army.

NOTABLE APPEARANCES:
Gambler's Worlds (1979-1984 comic strip: Los Angeles Times Syndicate)
Crimson Empire (Comic: Darkhorse)
