Bump Of Direction Man? Double-Jointed Lass? Hard one.

I think I'm gonna cry. There I was, thinking I was the only dupe who bought those issues. If THREE of us in this one thread bought it, what's to say Marvek isn't just gonna keep recycling crap like that? I mean, Joe Quesada might be reading this right now and decide to collect those issues in a TPB and expect people to buy them. Maybe if they mix in some of Fabian's blood plasma with the ink.

Poor Daredevil. He's had to battle folks like the Stilt-Man, Jester, Uri Gellar.... it's just too bad. edit: I think you're both right- either type od DC game seems appropriate to me. As long as you're not going to be naming your 40 str brick something silly and put him in a pink outfit, I think you'll be just fine. On the other hand, I think DC is meant to be for characters resembling Batman, Daredevil, or the Punisher. Both idea work though.

Wow... that is a pretty good idea. I'll be using it, and I probably won't give you credit for it. You know where to reach me for flames and lawsuits

Yep your wife is a smartie all right. great idea, perfect mechanic for what I was trying to suggest originally. And I betcha she's a babe too.

Mea Culpa I have to admit I was wrong about Professor X having TK at some point in his career. At least, after going backover the era I had referenced, I can't fin a single case of him using a TK effect. My bad.

Anyone who writes the X-Men or gains their noteriety from writing the X-Men is seriously suspect in my estimation. I don't know Chuck Austen from Tony Isabella, but if this meatball used to write X-Men, I guess we can expect a buttload of navel-gazing and some stories about why we shouldn't eat anything that casts a shadow. Oh, and how Hawkeye's been a mutant all along or some other crap.

I think it would be just so darn typical if they spent the next three issue kibbutzing with this sutpid family they introduced at the beginning. I don't know why I should care about them.

The Wrecking Crew, despite being four characters with almost the same powers (and a pretty lame schtick, at that), are a blast to see, since you know the heroes can just whup up on them as much as they want to.

He's the brains behind the Wrecking Crew, a foursome of brick supervillains who mainly just rob banks and blow stuff up. Sometimes other people hire them, like in the poorly-conceived early-90's crossover miniseries with Spidey, Darkhawk (ugh) Moon Knight (double-ugh) and Punisher (wha?) versus the Sercret Empire and various goons.

He's got a damage shield with no offensive capability whatsoever. He's also got like a million PD and ED. So stat-wise, I'm kind of befuddled by him, but concept-wise, he's dynamite.

Trust me, they do. People explain the simplest things to me over and over and over again, until I start to imagine what they would look like if they were giant anthropomorphic fruit-beings. Or thinking about sex.

Not just in Red, White and Black, but in Cap vol. 3, around issue 28-32 or something like that it was revealed that Cap wasn't the first test subject to have gotten the treatment. I can't recall ever actually reading the story, but that's what I understood from secondhand accounts.

Does it have to be a CU villain? There a bunch of Marvel losers that I love to read about. Most of them appearing in Silver Age Daredevil stories, but not all of them. The rest appeared in Power Man, I think. Except for Batroc, who appeared mainly in Cap.

I would say, these two plot devices are twin Transforms (one into a perfect physical specimen, the other into a long-lived person. LS being included in the vita-rays). It's important to realize though that Cap wasn't the first person to be successfully transofrmed into a super-soldier, nor was the first to be transf\ormed successfully the first to be experimented on. Apparently, the treatments only "take" in about 1% or so of the cases, and the rest of the test subject die a horrible death from toxic shock or radiation poisoning or something.

One thing to remember when you construct a villain team is, they don't necessarily have to be competant as individuals as long as they cover each others' weaknesses. I made a team with no name, kind of a mishmash of guys recruited by a would-be master villain names Meester Easter (Master of Hide-and-Seek). The other characters in the group were equally gonzo and feeble, but as a group, they matched up well with the heroes- especially with the incredibly hard-to-target Meester Easter popping up and aiding his teammates and blasting the heroes.

what about a lightning EB, sticky? then everyone touching the character or touching metal that's touching the character would get a buzz.

Cool indeed, and don't forego patting yourself on the back for an old school Marvel Superheroes reference.

I would say, let's let the Juggernaut take over. He's practically the same character as Batman. Only he's big, slow, super-strong, super-tough, magic-based, stupid, and a bad guy.

You know, the Flaming Carrot used to enjoy a television show called the Dread Pirate Choakers. It was the story of a (presumably) villainous pirate who fought superheroes on the Spanish Main (whatever that is... I'm sure some wiseacre will tell me). Ol Bob Burden, what a wild guy.

Why would you want to simulate this with a power, when a Disadvantage would work just as well (Psych Lim: two seperate minds in one body, vcom, total, 25 points)? Paying points for this sort of construct seems like a poor choice.

You know, I haven't had a good gaming session of Ice Age Mammoth Hunters for quite some time.

? I agree with everything you said, but what's irregardless mean?
