That's Nightcrawler from the X-Men. Be kind to Kurt - his childhood was a real circus!

He's black, not blue, so Sunspot or Obsidian maybe.

True, although in many of the comics I read in my youth Kurt was depicted as a very dark blue to the point that they made significant amounts of him look black.

I think he was originally supposed to be black, it's just that blue is used to provide highlights for mostly black characters like batman and venom.
