... It's weird. This is actually the first character I've ever had to find a PB for. I tend to just not bother when I'm playing a character from an already visual canon, like comic books or movies or video games. Especially when there's plenty of source, like there was for Reno.

For Sparkle here, it was a bit of a hunt, though. I needed a punk-looking boy with dark hair, green eyes, and some obvious attitude issues. You'd be surprised how few of those there ARE on the internet. So, Lou Taylor Pucci won, courtesy of a 12-minute Green Day music video where he played the titular Jesus of Suburbia. He's still a little too emo for my taste, since Sparks is the sort to burst out laughing at the worst possible moments, but he's close enough to pass muster.

And then I capped the whole thing like a mad fiend. A lot of work for a super-obscure character, woo!
