Who was Ashe Corven in "The Crow: City of Angels"?

Vincent Perez played Ashe Corven in The Crow: City of Angels. Perez portrays the character as a murdered mechanic who returns as the supernatural Crow to avenge the deaths of himself and his young son.

The 1996 film is a standalone sequel to The Crow, the 1994 movie starring Brandon Lee as Eric Draven. Directed by Tim Pope and written by David S. Goyer, City of Angels moves the story to Los Angeles and introduces a new protagonist rather than continuing Eric Draven's story. Ashe's resurrection is linked to the crow that guides him toward justice.

The character's name is sometimes written as Ash or Ashe, which can cause confusion in discussions of the film. Vincent Perez is the actor associated with the role; Ashe Corven is not the name of a real historical figure or a character from the original film. The movie also features Mia Kirshner, Richard Brooks, Iggy Pop, and Thuy Trang.
