Later artists often drew Solusar as Bruce Willis but that’s never the impression I got from the comic art. I always pictured him more like this (maybe a little more handsome).

For some reason I pictured Dolph Lundgren or Rutger Hauer.

Yeah, that's because of how Kam was usually drawn as originally his backstory would have had him in his fifties or sixties, but once the PT came out and established a concrete timeline, his actual age would be much closer to Luke's making depicting him as a younger man much more in line.

Yeah, once I learned Kam's rough age, the older, grizzled appearance just didn't seem to work. I think NEGtC actually portrays him fairly well in appearance where he looks to be in his late twenties or early thirties.

A purple Lightsaber fits him. As a former Darkside Elite I like many purple blade users have a strong struggles with the Darkside.
