Foxbat is up

Ok so far I like this one best

[Mendou]

He worries me somehow. It's like giving the Trickster access to Batman's fortune and Lex Luthor's ego. Though his presence could make things very interesting......

[McCoy]

Is it just me or does he look more -- cartoonish than the others?

[Hawknight]

Of course he looks cartoonish... He's FOXBAT!!

Best of the bunch so far.

[Hermit]

Dead on with the character writing I think.
And the art is, imo, staying true.

[Enforcer84]

I likee

[BigJackBrass]

The face is a bit too Zoltar for me (Battle of the Planets / Gatchaman) but overall I like the way Foxbat has been handled. Hopefully he'll be absolutely bonkers in the game itself - superhero games need a bit of silliness now and then.

[Odraude]

Laugh with me now – BWA HA HA HA HA!!

Hahahaha reminds me of that one villain on Freakazoid!

[ghost-angel]

He's got the best Power set of them all .... Soliloquies and Awesomeness.

What more could you ASK for.

[Hermit]

Foxbat is teh sexxxy, but we knew that.

[Lord Liaden]

I'm glad to see both that Cryptic Studios is giving us the classic Foxbat essentially unmodified, and that the response to the character by the Champions Online community on their forums has been overwhelmingly positive. :thumbup:

[Theron]

I when I read his origin, I "heard" it in Bruce Campbell's voice. I'd never considered using The Bruce for Foxbat, but now it seems like a no-brainer.

[proditor]

Dang. I'm unfortunately getting resigned to hating the art.

He certainly has the chin for it :D

I can't help it but I heard the voice of Batmanuel from the TV series for the Tick.

[Pariah]

Funny, when I read it, I was hearing Patrick Warburton's voice. Must've been from that Tick comment....

[lemming]

Wonder if the person who wrote the Foxbat description wrote the City of Villains Vernon Von Grun (http://cityofheroes.wikia.com/wiki/Vernon_von_Grun)


Genius! Laugh with me!

NYAH - HAH - HAH - HAH - HAH - HAH!

That mission arc is my favorite read.

[Patriot]

I like the Foxbat character very much. that being said, that picture looks terrible.:straight: So far I am not please with what they are doing to the Champions characters

agreed theron

1) Is there any indication that Freddy Furshlugginer---excuse me, Freddy Foswell---will actually be shown as the bumbling loon we all know and---well, we all know? Or is he going to be done with all the ability he thinks he has?

2) What happened to the "he thinks he's in a comic book" bit?

3) Where's the Centipedemobile?

maybe that explains theODD writing of the bio foxy's supposed to be doing it HIMSELF

Heh, even before I read the background, I took one look at the artwork and thought to myself, "as played by Bruce Campbell."

It's the chin, baby. :eg:

[Manic Typist]

Anyone else notice that they spelled it "slight" of hand?

[James Gillen]

"I'm Foxbat. And I'm awesome."

[Steve Long]

That's one of the most common spelling errors I see in manuscripts submitted to me for editing. ;) The curse of the homonym strikes again! ::cue dramatic theme music::

[BobGreenwade]

Hey, some people just have small hands.... ;)

(But really, I've seen worse, and from people who should know better. I'm still amazed at people who discuss the "Fifth Addition" of the rulebook, even though the word "Edition" is right on the front.)

[BigJackBrass]

Yes, you can allow it for a short time, but after that the homonym period is over...

I'll get me coat :whistle:

Ouch. Nice to see that even in this age of Internet-baby-speak and seemingly-irrelevant grammar and spelling rules that the simple pun still thrives ^_^

You realize you're going to have to write up a new supervillain for 6th Edition

The Homonym strikes again!!

[Lord Liaden]

You do realize what people will shorten his name to, yes? :whistle:

[BigJackBrass]

You do realize what people will shorten his name to, yes? :whistle:

The Nym?

[Basil]

The Nym?

Then there's the fellow who keeps pretending to be The Nym...





The Pseudonym!

[James Gillen]

And finally Letterman gets another villain in his Rogues' Gallery.

The Pseudonym!One problem, as I should have noticed before. It's not a homonym. Homonyms are spelled identically. Words that are pronounced identically (or nearly so) but spelled differently are homophones.

(Which suddenly sounds to me like a politically incorrect answering service for the GLBT community... probably set up by Foxbat himself as part of his Master Plan.)

[casualplayer]

Yer all a bunch of homonymcompoops! You should be ponged.

[Tim]

At Gencon Steve mentioned Ping Pong Ball guns that they didn't get in time. Looking forward to finding out how to get one.

[Steve Long]

Yes, sadly, apparently 1.6 billiion Chinese people can't get a few Champions Online promotional ping-pong ball guns ready in time for GenCon due to the stupid-ass Olympics. :mad: However, I am told they will be ready in time for PAX. Our hope is to get a dozen or so sent to us, which we can then somehow give away to Hero board folx via a raffle or something.

FoxbatGuns being given away!?!?? That's the ultimate in cool! :cool:

Hey, there's a book we need: The Ultimate Cool.

Suddenly I'm inspired to have Foxbat strike the Beijing Olympics in revenge!

[bubba smith]

by the time foxy reaches china the olympics will be over

[nexus]

Like that's going to stop the World's Greatest Supervillian

That's where the Foxbat Time Machine (Pat pending) comes into play.

[bubba smith]

hey foxy if you try to change history in re the bejing o.ympics make 'em judge boxing manually its NOT fencing with fists or a video game its a BOXING MATCH

[Pattern Ghost]

I think the artist who did the first two needs to learn what a human head is shaped like. =)

Other than that, seems pretty spot on. Can't wait to see the CG of him.
