    There was a group of villains in Alien Enemies called the Pantheon.  Alien beings took over the bodies of four individuals and gave them powers based on Ancient Gods.

    Don't forget Helios from The Protetctors he was possessed by a alien as well

    I conceded that at the beginning.

     

    But I also think there's a line between a sci-fi campaign and a superheroes campaign.  Aliens invading every few years, or a divided Earth that geopolitically hasn't changed much from our world, dealing constantly with alien empires as though they are just other nation states doesn't feel like the "real world" to me.  Everyone has different tolerances, of course.  I can tolerate superheroes and supervillains, costumes, little masks, constant break-outs, even anti-killing codes.  But massive, regular invasions of Earth by extraterrestrial entities is too much for me to believe that the world would really look like anything like ours + flying people in costumes.

     

    That's the other reason I don't really like every enemy army having blaster rifles.  I know why they are there (the Silver Age concept that people can be shot, but not be killed).  But it's a step too far down the supertechnology route for me to keep it in a non-sci fi setting.

     

    CU does go out of its way to have every trope.  I'm trying to figure out which ones can be easily excised, leave the setting intact, and satisfy my desire to have as little Silver Age influence as possible.

     

    I do like the idea of the world being closer to emerging superheroes than in its seventh decade of having them run around all the time.  I just am not willing to construct a universe where the PCs (or whoever) would be the first.  I don't want to throw out all the continuity in CU (I like the setting), just enough of it to keep the world "believably" like our own, with the addition of superhumans who commit crimes, fight crime, and fight each other.

    For ONce I'd have to agree with you  on some points. I've been setting up a Teen Champions Campaign on Discord and Facebook plus I've set up a club here @ HERO Games. Check it out why don't you?

    This is old by now, but if someone wants to incorporate Foxbat into a War on Christmas adventure....

    (With apologies to Frozen)


    Foxbat will hack into networks, and show his musical challenge!

     

    "The Snow glows white on the city tonight

    not a hero, to be seen

    Gone is my trepidation

    because it looks like I get away clean!"

     

     

    "The wind is howling and I should stay inside

    but can't stop scheming, heaven knows I've tried."

     

    "I want to win, I want them to see

    that I'm no villain of mediocrity

    Steal a mil but they must know

    Yes they'll know!"

     

    "It's my show, it's my show

    Can't hide my genius anymore

    It's a show, it's a show

    That's what I'm stealing for!"

     

    "I don't care

    about the pay

    let's have some fun!

    My Master Plan is making the news today!"

     

    "Its sad how the cold sends all the folks away

    To get to their warm houses while they can

    but I'll never let the weather

    thwart my Master Plan!"

     

    "It's time to show the world exactly what I can do

    Foxbat has no limits, heck I even flew

    No right, no wrong, no rules for me... I'll be....

    on News 3!!!!"

     

     

    "It's my show, it's my show!

    I'm the one with the dreams so high!

    It's my show, it's my show!

    You heroes will never see me cry!"

     

    "Here I scheme, come let's play

    Forget the storm!

    Winter scenes are more climatic anyway!"
     

    YE GODS!!! Reminds me too much of the Batman:TAS episode "Christmas with the Joker"

    Thinking about a VIPER issue.

     

    Blue Phantom: The multiple personally and geneticlly created lifeform with connections to The Dutchess and Dutchess Industry, and with there links to VIPER.

     

    The Dutchess: Dutchess Henrietta Von Dottie, head of Dutchess  Industy, and one of VIPER's Council of Forty. One of the most dangerous normal women in the world.

     

    Black Mamba: Scientist who was inficted by the COIL Virus, and was one of Doctor Blank's assistants and rival in science. Became a Dragon Branch member after a long time trying to cure himself of the virus by becoming a supervillain.

     

    Crital: A mutant and ex-superhero who after a scandal turned to crime. She later joined VIPER and became a Dragon Branch member.

     

    Brick: A man who's mind can't remember his past and with a body litterly made up of bricks, he has been VIPER's strongman for a long time.

    Don't You Mean Citadel? sheesh get the name right!

    Don't forget Mass Reaction and Psi-Kin Plus the Braverman foundation. from ALLIES

    Well, Freddy is going to be Freddy. Whenever he is mentioned, he wants to say "Here I am...tremble from the fearsome might of Foxbat...hay, stop laughing!"

     

    Sometimes I wish he were forgotten...

    Possibility: since Foxy has 6th ed stats ,why not create a spinoff from his motif? 

    And how about the Arcadian Academy from the C:TNM Books?

    Ok folks. I just noticed an announcement for a new product. "Forgotten Enemies #1". The first one focuses on Gryphon, Halfjack (who had 5th edition stats in the VIPER book), and Hideous. I don't own this book yet, but, well...

     

    Is Halfjack still a member of VIPER's Dragon Branch?

     

    Is Hideous still the rampaging beauty smasher, or is he more akin to Jason Vorhears, killing anyone who enters his territory? Has Gryphon devolved into a mindless beast, or has he recovered some human intelagence?

     

    Also, who would YOU like the author to tackle next? Mine is Timemaster, followed by Road Kill.

    How about the  Corruptors Of All ,Deathstroke, ATLAS, Utility, Fire&Ice Jabberock Spectra[they're bOyfriend and Girlfriend respectively] Beamline,Monpole, and a host of others?

    So, after hearing about this great book, what should we be expecting about this book? What organizations should be in it? Why? Who should be put aside? Why?

    First Off, an update on PRIMUS and the status of the Super-Soldier Program.

    Then  a Revision of SAT [Special American Tactics] WITHOUT the Anti-Mutant Mentality, we've got enough of that from GENOCIDE.

    Speaking of which, it needs to be revised along with IMAGE it's pro mutant Counterpart.

    Then Add a Japanese version of PRIMUS as well as a Korean/Chinese/Vietnamese counterpart.

    Then bring back AXIS as a Neo-Nazi/White Supremacist org with tech advancements.

    I have a book of superhero short stories using original characters.

     

    One has an alien scientist who believes his planet is doomed, and sends his son to Earth.  Turns out his planet doesn't explode, and the son lands in the Soviet Union.  Raised in the Soviet System he obeys all laws to the point he turns himself in to spend decades in a Siberian Prison.

     

    In another a Crime Fighter is put on trial by his fellow heroes for getting a child across a state line during a divorce case.

     

    And another story has a hero with amnesia told he must go into a hopeless fight, the what he is told isn't everything he should know.

    That wouldn't be called Superheroes would  it?
