Bar Mitzvah - Jewish Super-Hero of the Coolstar Comics Universe

Since this is the season of not just the Christian holiday of Christmas, but also the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, I've created a trio of distinctly Jewish heroes to inhabit my Coolstar Comics Universe. I am not Jewish, but as a Christian, obviously have roots in that faith, yet I had to do a lot of research to make these guys work. Also, while none of them really have anything to do with Hanukkah exactly, I did decide to give them the menorah as their symbol, however they do retain the traditional Star of David on their matching signet rings. Overall, they are obviously based upon a mix between DC's Marvel Family and The Wonder Twins, also from DC Comics, and their names are from the rites of passage into adulthood from their faith.
