I'd say Peter Weller would make a good powered armour hero as well. And if you're referencing Buckaroo Banzai - you should add in science-hero/gadgeteer as well.

 

Summer Glau - definitely a martial artist, with maybe a side of mentalist as well (y'know - River Tam, but not so crazy). Desolid/invisibility powers would work as well. Or for really weird - River Tam crossed with Cameron Philips :eek:.

 

(I have to mention Summer Glau - it's contractual, y'know :rolleyes:)

 

Jason Flemyng - a science-hero/gadgeteer type ('cos he played Professor Quatermass in the BBC's live remake of The Quatermass Experiment and I reckon you could drop Prof Quatermass and the British Rocket Group wholesale into a Champions campaign.)

One of my characters' date=' the Shadow Watcher, is a super-intellectual who carries around a plethora of everyday gadgets (PDA, umbrella, deck of cards, and so forth). I can't imagine anyone playing him but Ted Raimi.[/quote']

joxer the mighty himself as a super-hero

"For Whom The Bell Tolls" was my favorite Joxer episode.rofl.gif
Actually the title of that one was "For Him the Bell Tolls." It was this episode, along with "King of Assassins" and "Lyre, Lyre, Hearts on Fire" that showed me that Ted would definitely have the acting chops for playing the Shadow Watcher (though SW's much different from any of these characters).
