This reminds me of Demon Flux from the 4th edition version of Demon. They were the face group that looked like a magical VIPER but where really just a front.

Street magic from Shadows of the City had magic in it, although it was dark evil ritualistic magic.

So how does a team of magic girls handle the urban abyss?

What is your initiative system? I would be interested.

Digital Hero has a Star Hero adventure called the Helmet of Dr. Destroyer. It deals with the ultimate fate of Dr. D.

Always liked the whining Oculan.

Will there be a download for Hero Designer for this type Champions game?

I remember Batman TAS had a trio of bored rich guys who dressed up in animal masks and committed robberies for the thrill.

Are you going to be running this at any Cons in the near future?

How about Only in Hero ID? The idea that he has a suit of armor that he rarely loses? Or simply instant change?

He couldn't understand why he would humble himself to pretend to be human among all of humanity. But then humility is not Luthor's strong suit.

It was pointed by Batman that Superman is hiding in plain sight. Because he doesn't wear a mask and everyone knew that he was an alien from Krypton it was assumed that he was Superman all the time.

He might look like this guy.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/new-amelia-earhart-mystery-solved/ar-BBJE2Dy?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhp Looks like this old mystery may be finally solved.

The original 1933 King Kong is very pulpy. The Peter Jackson one is good too.

My favorite top ten 4th edition Champions supplement.

Robert Conrad himself said that it was just as well that the show got cancelled because someone was likely to end up dead eventually.

Got to start working on the bad guys

I will get back to doing this soon, RL and me being lazy has kept me away. I think I will give my list of the top ten supplements for Champions.

I was just wondering if any of you have a pulp character that you just don't really like too much? I have to say for me it's Doc Savage. I want to like him but he has the problem of just too perfect as well as rather sexist. Then there is the 800lb gorilla the Crime College. The fact that with no arrest, not court hearing, no anything Doc just sends them up to some asylum and performs brain surgery on them. I mean if this ever got found out it would be nationwide scandal. Also the fact that he seems to have little or no emotion. He is just a boring character overall, his aides are the ones with the most personality.

Pulp Hero is good even if you don't use Hero, it's that good.
