  1. Re: Favorite Superhero Lines Resurrection Man #10 guest starring Hitman. Hitman has been hired to kill Mitchell Shelley whose power allows him to come back from the dead, with a new set of powers. Shelley has Hitman up against a wall when Natt comes up behind him. Natt with gun to Shelley's head: Let my boy go, or win a cabriolet skull. Natt: Won't tell you twice. Ms. Rebecki (Shelley's Lawyer) with gun to Natt's head: Won't have to. Natt: Damn. Hitman: Well, this is a very Tarantino moment... What do we do now? Kill each other? Later... Hitman (having joined up with Shelley): So what's the status of your new powers, Shelley? Shelley: uh... Apparently I can make butterflies. (Demonstrates powers) Natt: That's the most beautiful thing I ever saw. Hitman: Right. (Shoots Shelley in the head) Hitman: Hello again. What's your power now? Shelley: oghhh... I think... I can change color. ...chameleon powers... Hitman: Crap! (Shoots Shelley) Hitman: Look, I'm just gonna keep on killing you until you come back with a decent gift... Up against the Lab, you're gonna need it. Shelley: X-Ray Vision? Hitman: Keep trying. (Shoots Shelley) Main story with Hitman ends there, Shelley's story goes on into the next issue. The Epilogue involves Hitman and Natt going to see the man that hired Hitman to kill Shelley in the first place. Hitman handing photo of Shelley over: So, as you can see, he's dead. Now pay up. Man: We have reason to believe that Shelley is still alive. Hitman: You're right. That's Mitch Shelley for ya. Unkillable. Man: So get on with the job. Don't expect me to pay you when it's not done. Hitman: You said three hundred grand for photographic proof of the kill. Well, here he is shot. Stabbed. Run down. Blown up. And drowned. And hanged. And gassed. At three hundred grand a pop, this is gonna cost. Man: You have to be joking! Hitman as he, Natt and the bartender pull guns on the Man: Only if you wanna die laughing.
  2. Re: Favorite Superhero Lines Avengers first Perez era. The team is on the porch watching as a man is hauled away in a straight jacket, during a snow fall. Wasp: Can we go inside now? It's cold. Beast: Gee Jan, I'd loan you my fur coat but I can't seem to find the zipper.
  3. Re: Best way to Build Cap's Shield? Keep in mind that over the last 2-2 1/2 years real time, Captain America has been operating on the caveat of Public Identity. USAgent is currently wearing a knock-off of Cap's outfit and not wearing the black one. Cap recently threatened Walker with a lawsuit due to the fact that Rogers holds the copywrite on the costume.
  4. Re: Just one more modding question... So what did you kill?
  5. Re: Can't decide what to get next Why only 5-10? The locales are great. Reuse them. Have the players return to those places over and over.
  6. Re: Just one more modding question... Unique Mage Knight figures don't have any stars on the base. Weak, Standard and Tough are denoted by one, two or three stars, respectively. Super-rares have a bronze-ish print. Ultra-rares have a gold print.
  7. Re: Mini Compatibility: Star Wars and HeroClix They are smaller. You could do the swap, but if it is a HeroClix figure, the head will be too small for the body.
  8. Re: Jack-Jack Parr One thing that really helps to understand and get into the characters is the choice of actors and the range that they showed doing the parts. Holly Hunter did a great Helen.
  9. Re: Harem question If you are looking for a reason, story plotline. If you are looking for mechanics, it would depend on the villain's abilities/powers and the abilities/defenses of the target. A "forced" effect, I would put somewhere around a +30 Ego result.
  10. Re: Need some info on Black Mask from Vibora Bay Humor and tone are lost in the printed media...
  11. Re: Need some info on Black Mask from Vibora Bay Action pic, page 42. Gray toned, but it shows her wearing thigh-high combat boots. Grenade pistol and Tae Kwon Do. And just because she's the Black Mask, doesn't mean the mask has to be black...
  12. Re: Testing out Character Posting Interesting write up. One of my favorite characters. One minor thing. The City should be capitalized. "It is MY The City!"
  13. Re: Supervillain Images Depends on your source material. Movie version comes out between the knuckles. Comic version, they come out of the back of the middle of his hands.
  14. Re: Characters for Reveiw: Yin / Yang Yin/Yang is also the dvision between masculine and feminine. Might work better if one of them is female.
  15. Re: The Incredibles Makes me wonder how strong ElastiGirl is. Wasn't Mr. Incredible lifting the RV. Conditional STR?
  16. Re: Need Help with a character concept Are you implying that all bards have a broad side?
  17. Re: UNTIL SuperPowers Database Usefulness Keyboards are cheap. Typing monkeys aren't. Can I interest you in a typing monkey?
  18. Re: Supervillain Images When I first looked at Abyss, I thought it looked pretty cool, but the lower legs and feet don't quite fit the rest of the image. Consider the possibility of making the feet claw-like, similar to the hands. Especially considering that it is bio-armor.
  19. Re: Superhero Definition True heroics must be carefully planned and strenuously avoided.
  20. Re: Marvel Comic's "Secret Wars 2" You're mistaken. It was Maximum Clonage that didn't happen.

    Spawn

    Re: Spawn The cape is actually part of the symbiote that is the body suit. The suit has abilities, but Spawn also has his power pool, however you want to define that. Initially it had a limited endurance. Every time he did something that used power, his counter dropped.
  22. Re: Strike Force Confused for a coloring book? I've done that with several of my sourcebooks, so that I can show my players what or who I'm talking about and don't have to describe the color patterns. I use high grade markers and color inside the lines.
  23. Re: character image That looks a wee bit like your wife.
  24. Re: character image Puff up. They hate that.
