Re: "Thing ring, do your thing!"

Re: "Thing ring, do your thing!" from the wikipedia citation for "THE THING" "...Although The Thing has always been closely identified with the Fantastic Four, he did appear as a solo character in a bizarre and short-lived 1979 spinoff of the animated series The Flintstones, entitled Fred and Barney Meet the Thing. For this series, Grimm became a gangly underweight teenager named "Benjy" Grimm as a result of a failed attempt to cure his Thing form. Since further work using this method could make him physically even younger, he has to live with this form as the best he can have for now. However when he needs it, he is able to change himself into The Thing by striking together two special rings and the saying "Thing Ring! Do your thing!". The only other Marvel characters who were recurring in the series were the Yancy Street Gang (remade into "TV-friendly" practical jokers, rather than a violent street gang), who served as Benjy's principal antagonists..." as this entry jibes with my own recollection of past events, i'm going to take it at face value...

Re: History of the Super-Soldier Serum (need suggestions!) an important thing to consider about "the super-soldier program," at least as it's portrayed in the ULTIMATE universe is that a very broad ranging and sweeping program, using various, methods, some related, some not, some based on previous work, some newly develped... the idea is to apply science towards making the ultimate soldier--while there was substantial effort to re-create the process that created CAPT. AMERICA, recovery of erkine's "super-soldier process" wasn't it's only goal... with that in mind, it may not be necessary to link all forms of "crypto-science" to the work of one scientist, Frankenstien, or whomever--it may be less work to simply recognize these characters, as "founding fathers," or "leading lights" in their respective fields--FRANKENSTIEN, MOREAU for biology, and genetics, TESLA, NEMO, AND TOM SWIFT, etc. for mechanics and engineering, and so forth...

Re: Crossovers.... we have a GM who runs 3 games that are all part of the same multiverse--while it's rare for players to cross over, villains do it fairly regularly... we even had an incident recently where a player was allowed to spend one of his character's "fudge points" in the champions game because there was a big, over-arch plotline that allowed for metagaming on that level, and the player had the inspired idea to actually ask if he could...

Re: CHAMPIONS UNIVERSE II - What Do You Want To See? as no one has beaten this dead horse, i'm once again putting in a request for more and better art--while there has been some improvement, i still say CHAMPIONS is in need of more "visual flavor text"--books with good art and write ups will expand your market, as they can be sold to even non-HERO system players more easily--plus "pictures are worth a thousand words," especially when it comes to fleshing out a universe...
