GestaltBennie Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 A video someone made using Champions Online to commemorate the Battle of Detroit, where Dr. D destroyed Detroit, and whose 20th anniversary was Monday. (Some of us were saddened that it was not acknowledged in game, so we took matters into our own hands with contests and RP events). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhKUAHzMj7U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattern Ghost Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Re: Battle of Detroit Mark Williams' character, Gargoyle. Thanks. Gargoyle popped into my head, but then I thought that was a villain. Just now I realized my brain was crossed up between Gargoyle and Gremlin, who looks a little similar, but more spiky. I was thinking, can't be Gargoyle, that's a villain. Not that I'm that up on the first team, I mostly know them from the comics and vague memories of the older rulebooks.

Sketchpad Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Re: Battle of Detroit As an aside, I also think a series based on this would be idea for older heroes and villains that haven't been published Heck, I'd love to work on it even Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
