That's an example of where dedication to art/science merges with stupidity.

I'll say it for all of us.  Meee-YOW!!

My wife and I are currently on vacation, and spent much of today driving.  While going through Kentucky, I saw a police officer had pulled someone over far ahead on the right shoulder, so I pulled into the left lane, as did most other drivers.  The person coming up behind me, however, pulled into the right lane just before getting to where the police car was  so he could speed past everybody else.  I commented that the guy was an idiot, and what he did was illegal.
 
Wife:  "Maybe it wasn't illegal.  Different states have different laws.  Maybe in this state, you're not required to change lanes when you're passing a police car on the side of the road...
Me:  (silently points to sign that is very conveniently placed less than a mile from where the cop had pulled someone over, which we are approaching as she's finishing her sentence)
Sign:  "STATE LAW:  Pull over or slow down when passing a stopped emergency vehicle."
Wife:  Okay.  So he's an idiot and what he did was illegal.

Suddenly I need an asprin.

Well, a female troll is a trollop.

Nothing to solve the random mutant hair growth problem in this update though.

Not in Action Comics #1 - that's the radio show opener.  Actually, a lot of "classic Superman" originated in the radio show, not the comic books.
 
As you read through the thread, note how diverse the stats are - STR, DEX, CON, SPD - this all depends on the campaign standards.  A Superman with 50 STR is pretty Super in a game where the typical character has an 8 DC attack, average where most characters toss around 10 DC, and underpowered in games where 12 DC is the norm.  There is no absolute "Superman STR" - his STR is "campaign maximum damage, or close to".  In a game where attacks range from 8 DC to 12 DC, I'd expect a 55 or 60 STR.  If the game norm is 12 - 15 DC< I'd expect STR 70 - 75.  But STR 70 would be ridiculously high in a game where characters are built to an 8 to 10 DC standard.
 
Your comments on DEX and SPD  highlight this.  If "everyone" is DEX 35, SPD, then Supes needs those stats to compete.  Drop "everybody" 15 DEX and 2 SPD so the typical Super has 20 DEX, 4 SPD, and they interact with each other on exactly the same basis.  OCV 12 hits DCV 12 just as often as OCV 7 hits DCV 7.  But we just shaved 50 points off the price of a base-level Super.

Sorry I missed the game, got stuck working nights. some one quit.  went to the con but by 1pm was half asleep

I talked about how the session went in the other thread.  I got home a couple of hours ago and am decompressing and going through post-con letdown right now.  This might very well be the first GameStorm I've played in any Hero games at all, and it's probably the first convention in at least 10 years I've played in more than one.  
 
I'm going to run something Hero again next year, and I think I'm going to start prepping for it sooner.  Like, tomorrow.
