I've got it! I've been grappling with the nature of Brick Malloy's monstrous appearance after the sinister agents of Perfidious Albion subject him to the pernicious Antæus Serum, but now I think I've got it: obsidian.
Post-transformation Brick isn't made out of obsidian, but his skin is as dark as obsidian and upon receiving a sharp, sudden impact, such as from a blunt weapon or a bullet, it instantly hardens and takes on every appearance of being obsidian. Brick isn't bulletproof, but he's bullet-resistant and almost infintely resilient. And of course possessed of prodigious strength. Monstrous as he is, he's the wonder of the age.
