Re: [OOC] Screaming Metal Vagabonds [M&M 3E] (Recruiting)

You might want to buy him a blaster pistol or some other weapon with some of the ep. Save his nanoshifting for other stuff.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (The Mad Thinker! H.E.R.B.I.E.! DOCTOR DOOM!)

Doctor Doom is one of those characters that I'd probably like more if I didn't get the feeling that the writers liked him so much.

Is that something we could buy with Equipment?

Re: [OOC] Screaming Metal Vagabonds [M&M 3E] (Recruiting)

Sooooo. This is by no means a final idea, but when I saw there was a Billie Zane in the setting, I started thinking about a Peacekeeper in it, too, and I turned it over in the back of my head when I was thinking about Mutants and Masterminds. It also became part of my thinking about defense and toug...

Re: Interest Check -- The Omega Men Meet Third Rock From The Sun [M&M 3E]

I'd try it out. I don't have any alien character ideas off the top of my head, but I'll think it over and see what comes to mind.

Re: The Puppet Master

https://comicvine1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/0/229/603674-2.jpg The long eyelashes have always weirded me out. That's such an odd visual quirk to throw on a character. I don't have a statement of intent I can quote or anything, but I'm positive the eyelashes are to make the Puppet Master look...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Shanna! The FF! Mr. Fantastic! Invisible Woman!)

Invisibility is basically an "I can hit you but you can't hit me back" power--on its own, it's powerful, but in a different way than you mostly see in other superheroes. Combine it with any other combat power, though, and it gets overwhelming really quick. It's funny, but there are two ver...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Ka-Zar! Shanna the She-Devil! The Fantastic Four!)

The technobabble was hilariously bad. for example, Doctor Doom invented a "grabber" which could be used to move anything using magnetism. The first thing he demonstrated it on was a giant head from a statue that was made out of stone. Dubious applications of magnetism?! In Marvel Comics??...

Re: The Fantastic Four

The whole "This was the Cosmic Book" thing... kind of didn't hold up all the time. It was largely true until the '90s, but I think the Silver Surfer getting his own book robbed it of some of its thunder. He was doing stuff that THEY should have been doing, you know? Things kind of reared ...

Isn't he PL 8? His highest stats are his Fortitude 3 and Will 13.

Re: Senses as a Free Action

Does he do that? I assumed his radar sense was always on. I've never seen him get ambushed because he hadn't activated it.

Re: Ares

Ares was one of the write-ups whose assignment I inherited when one of the other contributors flaked on the project (pretty sure that's how I ended up with Atomic Skull and Metallo as well). I had him at PL 14 at first and the developers balked (they had neglected to include a pre-determined PL for...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Dark Angel! Maxwell Lord! Dr. Psycho! Ares!)

I've heard (well, read) that at the beginning of the story, Genocide was supposed to have been made using Knockout's body, not future Wonder Woman's, which would at least explain the red hair, and might have had some effect on the plot. I can't get over the venus flytrap over her eyes, but it's stil...

Re: A World Less Magical But No Less Fantastic

I never liked Hank Pym or the Wasp much. Then I watched Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Now Janet Van Dyne is one of my favorite superheroes.

Re: A World Less Magical But No Less Fantastic

Despite his anger over this, Carl adapted fairly well, and started to look into joining the Ultimate Wrestling Federation instead. But his time there was every bit as frustrating, as he kept getting booked as a heel instead of the babyface that he wanted to be, and going under for people who were w...
