Due to a lack of knowledge on a cult classic comic character, I decided to put together the best I can a Crow respect page.

No Caption Provided

The Crow is a hero who returns from the dead to seek revenge on whoever murdered him. The legend goes that the crow can ferry the souls of the dead to the after life. However if a soul is so full of sorrow and anger, that crow can bring them back to life to right the wrongs so the said soul can rest in peace.

In this way murder victims are often resurrected to seek revenge on those that wronged them with supernatural powers. There is many people who acted as a Crow in the comics and movies. This is a list of their shown supernatural powers and skill.

Super Strength.

Each crow has shown degrees of super strength consistently.

No Caption Provided

Breaks apart Steel poles and Netting with his bare hands.

No Caption Provided

No Caption Provided

Smashes threw a steel enforced door of a pawn shop with a punch.

Travel ability. This great strength grants them the ability to jump super distances and run real fast.

Regeneration

The most well known power of a Crow is their regeneration.

Scans of Crows shrugging off Gunfire from Automatic Weapons and shotguns.

Joshua shrugs off a hit from a subway train. Then runs back to his grave before the Cops could noticed.

Crows also have some neat Supernatural powers in Empathy, Crow Clairvoyance, and Crow Summoning.

Empathy. All Crows have a ability to read and feel what others have experienced by touch.

Salvador using empathy to read this guys mind for all the info he can.

Salvador using empathy to implant the fear and pain of his death into two separate people.

Two examples of Joshua using Empathy to instill the pain and fear into his murderers of deeds they committed in a past life.

Crow Clairvoyance. All Crows have a connection to their crow benefactors. The birds themselves act as guides, and informants on all things dealing with the dead.

The bird feeds info to Eric on possible weapons, and medical conditions of targets.

No Caption Provided

The crow warns Salvador of the unseen threats approaching.

Crow Summoning/Transformation. A power only shown a handful of times, the Crow can summon a murder of crows to attack and shred a foe. The Crow in movies and in comics showed the ability to transform into a Crow(s)

No Caption Provided

The Crow can also summon a murder of crows when desperate.

No Caption Provided

Inherent Skill.

Every Crow has shown a measure of inherent skill when brought back to life to help exact revenge. No matter the background of the Crow had in life. Whether a business man, musician, artist, medicine man, or simple store clerk they all show skill comparable with most special forces operatives.

Eric Draven was a musician in life. A simple artist of music.

Eric shows skill with a sword.

Eric wipes out a bar of thugs with statements on his superb accuracy.

Eric shows hand to hand skill, grapple attacks, and fancy moves.

Eric shows the skill of super human accuracy and reaction to this professional knife thrower while Eric uses apples.

Eric shows more skill with guns.

I just love this showing from Eric.

Salvador was a mediocre boxer in small time betting fights.

Some hand to hand skill as a Boxer.

Showing grander fighting skill than Boxing as well marksmenship.

Salvador fights a physical representation of Death itself in a good fight before his crow is shot.

We never get the name, nor background of this Crow, but he was shown to be a Jewish gentlemen who was easily overpowered by 2 Nazi soldiers.

As a Crow he fends off multiple Nazis and attack dogs in moments.

This crow then takes down a Nazi prison camp with their own weapons, and shows understanding how to use and manipulate these weapons with skill and accuracy.

Mark was a small time cop in china.

Mark turns into over payed beat cop into professional swat team Rambo dealing in death.

Ashe was a Car Mechanic.

Ashe takes down this trained swordsmen with ease.

Jamie is a Foreign Exchange Student. A teen still.

Shows great skill with a sword and gun.

Jamie skilled enough to stalemate a demon from Hell.

Joshua is a Indian from the Civil War days that was resurrected.

Hours of being alive he shows knowledge and skill in operating a Car as well motorcycle.

I hope this respect thread helps people get a better understanding of the Crow and comic abilities.

Nice work! This is pretty awesome! It's nice to see a character new to the battle forums who already has a pretty rad collection of feats.

Rochelle Davis was part of the cast of the cult classic 1994 film The Crow. This film featured the late Brandon Lee, son of the late Bruce Lee. She starred as Sarah the little girl that was street savvy. I have the honor of working with her on her biography. There will be a section in her book where she answers fans questions. Please take a moment to like her page and ask a question if you are interested.

Thank you!
