... Is basically the '70s blaxploitation and horror film CrazySugarHistoricHero! As the name indicates, he recharges his powers by consuming coffee and caffeine rather than sugar and candy. It wasn't even intentional, but as I mapped out that whole line of characters, I realized that the ones near the late ends of cycles wind up going for caffeine rather than sugar (the CacklingCappuccinoSupernaturalSleuth! during the 1920s, who was basically the Shadow, and the InsaneCaffeineRevengeSoldier! during the '80s, who was basically the Comedian from Watchmen), and seem to be darker characters as a result.

There are cycles now?
