Re: More space news! CAll me back when someone can adequately define the word "time." We infer time from our experience of sequential displacement, but how this experience comes about is an utter mystery. We can predict the behavior of objects as their speed changes in relativistic ways compared to other things, but we still haven't the foggiest idea of what causes "intervals."

Re: Make Your Own Motivational Poster Meh. There's really only one plot. Somebody wants something and is prevented from getting it. When that incongruity is eliminated, the plot ends.

Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? Thunder: A gender swapped Flash. One of a long line of mother to daughter inheritors of speed powers. Legion: A Superman/Captain America mashup. Superman's powers with Cap's origins. He was pulled out of service after WWII because the US Govt considered him too valuable to risk in the field. "What if someone else manages to kill him. We'll be at a disadvantage!" So they took him off the table until they could figure out how to replicate his powers. "If we can make lots of him, he'll be expendable!" It's been almost a century and they've had no luck replicating his powers. So now he serves as the front man for a secret metahuman team, taking the credit for the work that other people do. He is not entirely happy with the arrangement, but since he doesn't seem to be aging, he's learned to take a long view. He had generally parleyed his influence to prevent his team from being forced into the role of assassins or regime changers.
