quozaxx Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Bricks: They can not only dish it out, but they can take it. I think it's a good time for "The Brick Hall of Fame". This is a list of your favorite brick characters. Whether it's the more popular Hulk, Superman, or Spider-man; or the less popular Tarzan, Kazar, or Doc Savage. Bricks are an important part of our culture. But we need categories. So... 1. Nominees for favorite comic book brick are... This should represent the comic book brick that you went out of your way for. The one that you just couldn't wait month after month for a new issue to come out. 2. Nominees for best supporting comic book brick are... This should be your next top 10 comic book brick. These are great bricks and NEED to be mentioned. Since I think that this could fill pages and pages of feedback on just this one subject; I'm asking the limit to be the top 10. 3. Nominees for most looked over comic book and novel bricks are.... This is the one that seems to get overlooked. But still needs mention. Again, since the subject could fill pages, let's also limit this one to 10. 4. Nominees for best move brick are... This is the brick that you LOVE from the movies that are NOT normally in comic books. For example: Rocky Balboa. 5. Nominees for best supporting movie brick are... This is again is one of your favorites, but still should be limited to 10. 6. Nominees for best Television brick are... Do you like the Six Million Dollar Man the best? 7. Nominees for best supporting television brick are... This is again one of your favorites not usually highlighted in comic books. Again; limit of 10. 8. Nominees for real life brick are... This is the ones you have seen on TV or the Olympics. Do you prefer The Big Show - how about Muhammad Ali? 9. Nominee for Hero Game brick are... This is your nominee for this game's favorite (or even honorable mention) brick. This should only include brick already published from Hero Games. 10. (optional) Include your own, personally made brick here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedneckJedi Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Re: The Brick Hall Of Fame I nominate Strong Guy from XFactor. Near Hulk level strength and absorbs kinetic energy making him even stronger. The combination makes him potentially the strongest character ever in comics. A funny character too. Very under used. He could have had his own title if he were used right... Real life Brick: Phil Pfister (2006 World's Strongest Man) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nerdnumber1 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Re: The Brick Hall Of Fame 8. Nominees for real life brick are... Chuck Norris (duh) Rasputin (so tough his CON is in FRED) Rasputin survived a knife wound that exposed his intestines in the early 1900s. On a later occasion he was poisoned, then shot in the back, then shot several more times when he survived and beaten into submission when the bullets didn't work. When his body was discovered in the Neva River it was found that he had died of hypothermia! There are super heros that die easier than that. During his cremation some people recount him moving.

Spidy has superhuman strength, but is a light-weight compared to many of his enemies and peer supers. Ironman, though able to hold his own, is more of a energy projector.

Nerdnumber1 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Re: The Brick Hall Of Fame Good thought' date=' was just thinking of their ability to withstand damage. . . .Thanks for the clarification[/quote'] You're welcome. Sure, compared to a normal human, almost any super can be considered a brick. But Spidy gets his @ss kicked if he goes toe to toe with most of his supervillian enemies. He uses agility for defense as even a normal bullet could seriously harm him (batman has likely taken more bullets (in semi-armored suits) than spiderman).

Hermit Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Re: The Brick Hall Of Fame Bricks: They can not only dish it out, but they can take it. I think it's a good time for "The Brick Hall of Fame". This is a list of your favorite brick characters. Whether it's the more popular Hulk, Superman, or Spider-man; or the less popular Tarzan, Kazar, or Doc Savage. Bricks are an important part of our culture. But we need categories. So... 1. Nominees for favorite comic book brick are... This should represent the comic book brick that you went out of your way for. The one that you just couldn't wait month after month for a new issue to come out. This strikes me as a call for entertainment value as much as anything else. So I'm going to vote Blue Devil during the 80s. I loved that Weirdness Magnet stuck in his own horn adorned Exo Suit. He wasn't the strongest guy around, but he was no push over and his "but I'm not a superhero" stance while rushing to help others never failed to bring a smile to my faced. 2. Nominees for best supporting comic book brick are... This should be your next top 10 comic book brick. These are great bricks and NEED to be mentioned. Since I think that this could fill pages and pages of feedback on just this one subject; I'm asking the limit to be the top 10. The ever luvin' blue eyed Thing. Ben Grim has been consistently entertaining through out most of my life, with a few exceptions one can blame on bad writers. Heck, he was the first one to develop some classic 'brick tricks', and while certain flying bricks have been around a bit longer, Ben truly deserves to be considered a founding father of brick kind. She-Hulk, though I'm not into all her runs, she's one of those ladies who surpassed the original guy she was derived from in my favorite's list. Often tinged with humor but almost always heroic, I enjoy her greatly. 3. Nominees for most looked over comic book and novel bricks are.... This is the one that seems to get overlooked. But still needs mention. Again, since the subject could fill pages, let's also limit this one to 10. I could probably use Blue Devil again for this one, though his situation has since changed. For originality, I might actually nominate a bad guy. Sebastian Shaw's power was a cool twist on the super strength theme. 4. Nominees for best move brick are... This is the brick that you LOVE from the movies that are NOT normally in comic books. For example: Rocky Balboa. Not normally in comic books? Well, he did get a comic later, but I'd still like to list Mr. Incredible. Mid life crisis aside, the guy's strong, smart, and yes, a hero. IF that doesn't count... How about Fezig from Princess Bride played by the late Andre' the Giant? The rhyming man mountain who broke open doors, carried folks up hill, and was too decent to just lob a rock at the man in black only to discover he had over trained against crowds. 5. Nominees for best supporting movie brick are... This is again is one of your favorites, but still should be limited to 10. If Mr. Incredible counts above, put Fezig here. Another mention is Chewbacca of Star Wars fame. Loyal to Han, the "walking carpet" had the best lines. Who could forget "aaaaaaaaarrr " , "uuuuurr" and "roooo"? Okay, seriously, he conveyed a lot of emotion for a guy in a hairy suit. 6. Nominees for best Television brick are... Do you like the Six Million Dollar Man the best? The Hulk played by Lou Ferigino with Bill Bixby handling the Banner side. 7. Nominees for best supporting television brick are... This is again one of your favorites not usually highlighted in comic books. Again; limit of 10. Steve Austin must be mentioned as you indicate. I'd also like to add KITT (early indestructible version) who was brilliantly voiced. Sure, he's also a speedster, but I think he qualifies. B.A. from A-Team . I pity the fool who does not get the glory that is the Mohawk and bling. 8. Nominees for real life brick are... This is the ones you have seen on TV or the Olympics. Do you prefer The Big Show - how about Muhammad Ali? In the 80, I'd give it to Hulk Hogan. The matches were staged, but I was amused, and I wouldn't want to tick him or his pro wrestling peers off in a dark alley. 9. Nominee for Hero Game brick are... This is your nominee for this game's favorite (or even honorable mention) brick. This should only include brick already published from Hero Games. Glad you put this one in. This is a hard call, there have been lots of good ones. Oh, what the heck, I'll go with Ironclad. I've used him as an NPC so much that he's really grown on me. 10. (optional) Include your own, personally made brick here. I'll limit to one I'm already playing or I'll never get it done. I'd probably have to say Mole. Not my strongest brick, but a highly fun character to play. Much of that credit goes to a great (and very patient) GM, mind you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Samson Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Re: The Brick Hall Of Fame 1. Nominees for favorite comic book brick are... Doc Samson has always been my favorite. He's got both brains and the brawn, not to mention he has the stones to take regular beatings from BigandGreen. 2. Nominees for best supporting comic book brick are... I think most will vote the Hulk or Superman for number one, so I will vote for the Thing here. After all, who else lasted 3 rounds with the Champion? 3. Nominees for most looked over comic book and novel bricks are.... Lobo, you fraggers! 4. Nominees for best movie brick are... Mickey O'Niel (from Snatch) 5. Nominees for best supporting movie brick are... Boris the Blade, aka Boris the Bullet Dodger "Cause he doges bullets, Avi." 6. Nominees for best Television brick are... Ben 10 (Waybig, Four Arms, and Humongosaur) 7. Nominees for best supporting television brick are... Keven 11 (the Alien Force version with Absorbing man powers) 8. Nominees for real life brick are... Brock Lesnar...just holy crap. 9. Nominee for Hero Game brick are... Meh. 10. (optional) Include your own, personally made brick here. Coming Soon...maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(optional) Include your own, personally made brick here. My suggestions: 1. Superman. 2. Colossus. 3. Tank (of the short-lived DNAgents). 4. Terminator (specifically, the T101 from Terminator 2). 5. No suggestion. 6. B. A. Baracus. 7. Bigfoot (on Sanctuary). 8. Andre "The Giant" Rousimoff. 9. Brick (the "brick made of, well, brick" from the earlier editions) 10. Wall. He's a sort of a Hulk knockoff, except that his main rage-inducers are bright lights, fire, and electricity. He also gets stronger when he's hit with bright lights, fire, and electricity. And the heroes he fights against most often use (you guessed it) bright lights, fire, and electricity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
