Re: Charlie-27
-Charlie-27 would probably win any contest I can think of for "The Worst Super-Hero Name Ever". I mean, what kind of super-hero has a NUMBER in their name- Mach I? Four, the leader of WildGuard? Well, it's less an issue about finding superheroes with numbers in their names and seeing whic...

Re: Jab’s Builds (The Micronauts! The Kree! Ronan the Accuser!)
Huh, there's an idea: Make the Sentries piloted mecha.

Re: Jab’s Builds (The Micronauts! The Kree! Ronan the Accuser!)
I think one issue I have is that the Accusers are an AWESOME idea. They're like the Judges from Judge Dredd, complete with a warhammer acting as their giant gavel, only they work for an empire of evil aliens. We should be seeing more of these guys, not just Ronan. One Ronan is bad, having a group of...

So Uncle Bylar was basically Thanos.

Re: Jab's Rifts Builds (Roadganger! Road Sentinel! Sham-Man!)
I won't believe this is a true Rifts book until we get some class that exclusively uses Boomerangs as a weapon, some write-up of about 10 different magical and/or high-tech boomerangs, cybernetic kangaroos, or some combination therein.

Re: Jab’s Builds (The Web! The Jaguar! Steel Sterling! The Comet!)
The way the series quickly wrapped up at the end makes me wonder how much of Victoria's role in things was originally intended, or was meant to simply wrap up loose ends. Nine months after that last issue, a certain TV series, which had "Trust No One" as one of its catch phrases, premiere...

Re: Jab’s Builds (The Web! The Jaguar! Steel Sterling! The Comet!)
Some clarity on the Impact Comet series: The Connors family had been taken by aliens as part of their "infiltrate and evaluate" protocol, finding a trio of humans out in the middle of nowhere and capturing them. The aliens were natural shapeshifters, so they assumed the Connors appearance ...

Re: The Comet
-Now THIS is a costume. The Comet is so forward-thinking he could have debuted in the 1960s and fit right in with either company. Turn the "stars & moons" on his costume into a Starman/Quasar/Troia-like starfield and you have one hell of a look. Though people will assume he's a Cyclop...

Re: The Fly (Impact Comics)
https://comicvine.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1/15776/526477-fly1.jpg The Impact line was my first exposure to these characters outside of a single Mighty Crusaders issue from the 80s, as well as couple of the toys from the 80s line. I always liked that look for the Fly as it had a nice solid d...

Re: Captain Marvel, the Marvel Familiy and Shazam - Ramblings and Reconstruction: The Rock of Eternity
Filmation also did the 80s He-Man, She-Ra, Bravestar, Blackstar and the Filmation Ghost Busters. They also had a Flash Gordon animated series I quite liked. Season 1 anyway.
I'm sure most of them are available via streaming, but cartoon junkie that I am, I have hard copies of most of them.

Re: Captain Marvel, the Marvel Familiy and Shazam - Ramblings and Reconstruction: The Rock of Eternity
My first exposure to the character was the Filmation animated series, much like Ken. While I was only a couple of years old when it initially aired, there was a local video store that had episodes on VHS that I rented regularly, and I caught some episodes on syndication. I also got my hands on some ...

Re: Jab’s Builds (Raya! Sisu! Namaari! Mighty Crusaders! The Shield!)
The Shield was definitely the Crusader's big iconic hero, and it's not hard to see why. He's basically a hybrid of early Golden Age Superman (being a superstrong, nigh-invulnerable brick) with a solid patriotic look. Some of the updated looks for the costume look REALLY cool and if you wanted someon...

Thanks! Always good to hear the mad ramblings in my brain appeal to someone.
