For those among my friends and followers who know Scott Bennie - or who know his work - I have the difficult news that he has been hospitalized and undergone surgery. I do not know what his current condition is, but according to his sister, he is undergoing significant rehab. He has no access to a computer or the Internet and is very much cut off. As I understand it, you can send him an email address to the following address, using the following information to ensure a message is hand-delivered to him by the Volunteer Resource team. This will be the only way he knows friends and fans are thinking of him. youvegotmail.ARH@fraserhealth.ca Robert Scott Bennie Unit: Baker 3 Room 109

I'm not sure of the social protocol in this situation.
 
Are we not talking about exactly what happened to him because no one knows?
 
Or are we not talking about it because everyone but me knows, however, it's a delicate matter and we just aren't discussing it openly because everyone but me is trying to be sensitive?

I would be curious too.  If only to know how much one needs to worry.

SPF's notification implied it's serious, but was otherwise guarded as to what the problem actually is. Either he doesn't know himself, or it's a matter Scott wants kept private, at least for now.
 
For the time being I have no problem with wishing Scott well, whatever his condition is.

I just watched Flying Guillotine 2 and real sized that the weapon in Ninja Hero needs to be rewritten.  Shaw Brothers FG do have a blade on the outside which can be used to attack people with. Also the Iron Umbrella is a cool concept on defeating FG. 

In the comics, Iron Fist often struck two goons simultaneously. As such, I would build him with 2 Penalty Skill Levels with K'un Lun Kung Fu. He could use these levels to decrease his OCV and/or DCV penalty for certain Sweep Attacks, or decrease the penalty for a called shot. For example: Iron Fist has learned that Shu-Hu ("Lightning") is superhumanly tough. Therefore, he gathers his chi. His fist glows. He uses a high shot strike with both PSLs* to reduce the hit location penalty to zero.
