assault Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Here is a link to a story about the insufficiently legendary Space Canine Patrol Agency: http://www.misterkitty.org/extras/stupidcovers/stupidcomics65.html This was the first time I'd seen it, although I've no doubt that somebody else has linked to it before. So: character point totals? Krypto is obviously built on lots. The others are less obviously expensive. I'm tempted to use their slogan as my signature. I found this while googling to see if the name "Astroman" had been used by any serious character before. I found this: http://www.misterkitty.org/extras/stupidcovers/stupidcomics21.html The answer appears to be no. It looks like I'll be adding a character called Astroman to my universe in the next few days. All this nonsense reminds me: I need an idea for a robot character - one who can fit in with mildly stupid Silver Age characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCoy Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Re: Space Canine Patrol Agency Interesting. Many of the names were recycled into the Dog Star Patrol, and with the exceptions of Krypto, Brainy Barker, and honorary members Streaky and Ace, the Dog Star Patrol members can be built on 250 points. Never mind how I know that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OddHat Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Re: Space Canine Patrol Agency For those who think the Silver Age made sense: Did you know that if you're convicted of a felony on Krypton, not only do you get sentenced to the Phantom Zone, they throw your CATS in there as well? Very groovy link. And I agree with McCoy, most of the Space Canines could be built on 250 points or less, even if they had to pay for their base and vehicles. Krypto would take me at least 500 points, or 800+ for a close to full power version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narratio Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Re: Space Canine Patrol Agency I remember reading that one! The only time I remember Krypto wearing a jumpsuit... and what did Superboy think of that I wonder? As for point totals on the others? Way low, around 100pts apiece including those from Disads.
