Re: Ragdoll It looks like you've created a supervillain crime lord to me, not a playable hero. Maybe you should give this character to your GM and have him create an adventure where your heroic characters can face off against the Ragdoll and his clown gang.

Re: Questions about vigilantes Money = irrelevant since all their equipment that is intended to be used regularly should be paid for with the points used to create the character in the 1st place.

Re: Cougar (Sentry City) Maybe I missed it, but if his father is Russian why is his last name Irish?

Re: Justice Inc Rides Again! Is this happening? If not, maybe I can do one...I have the Justice Inc. game (2 copies, actually) from the early '80s and have read at least 50-60 pulp novels (The Avenger, Doc Savage, The Shadow, and the Spider; also Tarzan, the Phantom, Dick Tracy, as well as having seen many movie serials from those days) so I have great familiarity with the genre.

Re: Back to Basics Designs Any chance you'll be doing Aquaman, preferably old-school Aquaman (y'know, with two hands and no beard, like on the Super Friends)? And in a perfect world, Apache Chief, Black Vulcan, and Samurai! Your write-ups are very helpful to me, although I don't necessarily agree with the characteristics you've assigned (i.e., why does Hal Jordan have the strength of an all-time great bodybuilder? I think he should be more like 12--but I'm old and the only stories I've read are from the 1960s and maybe he started doing steroids since then). It's really great that you are posting these as I am not great at building existing characters from the comics. You've made it a lot easier as I can just take what you have done and modify for my own purposes.

Re: Superhero Team Members Why aren't any Marvel characters in the Justice League, or D.C. characters in the Avengers? To me it seems a little arbitrary and hard to believe (if they're all in the same world). Here's my ideal superteam lineup from the 1940s: Captain Marvel (Shazam!) Captain America Human Torch (1940s android) Sub-Mariner Flash (original) Green Lantern (original) Wonder Woman Plastic Man Phantom Lady Cat-Man (from Holyoke Comics) Batman Hawkman (original) (Never liked Superman's extraterrestrial origin or abilities so he doesn't exist.)
