Re: The World In The Aftermath (Formerly A World Less Magical)

Great character, but that's one messed up story.

Re: The T-Verse (Earth 75): Hanna-Barberra Heroes - Space Ghost & Teen Force

I believe that the Hanna & Barbera's superhero shows were my second true exposure to the genre, after the reruns of the 1967 Spider-Man. Strangelky enough, I remember a few episodes of Space Ghost and Herculoids, but I swear nothing about Teen Force. I was aware of their existance, but don't rem...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Beavis & Butt-Head! Stewart! Todd! Daria!)

Some comments I picked up while looking for pics: I love how the show started off so cynical and you willingly accept these mostly one-dimensional characters as humorous critiques on society and stereotypes, and then slowly the characters gain depth and by the end it has so much heart you just want...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Toshinden 3-4! Strike Force One! Beavis & Butt-Head!)

I always prefered Daria to Beavis and Butthead, mostly because her brand on cynical humor clicked with me a lot more.
I recognize that the boys are a pretty seminal product of their era, but I really can't find anything interesting in their brand of idioticity.

Re: She-Cat

-She-Cat is a large, muscular, male-looking female cat-person, cloned from White Tiger II (who in Heroes For Hire was then an uplifted tiger created by the High Evolutionary). She did a lot of growling and posturing, but White Tiger defeated her off-panel. As much as I liked certain aspects of this...

Re: Jab's Power Profiles: Affliction! Suffocation! Snare!

Snare was definitely one of the bigger casualties of their "Let's stuff everything into the Affliction box". Like how do cut the bolos off of a teammate? Can you do it on your own turn instead of waiting for the end of it for the automatic save? Personally, I've handled both of those with...

Re: Heroes Unlimited: The Catsiverse Role Call

Woodclaw- thank you! You bring up an interesting point that I hadn't considered before. I was thinking of characters that came exclusively with a vehicle rather than character that often used a given vehicle. Good of you to point out the distinction between the two that I didn't previously consider...

Not wanting to spam the game thread too much with my random musings, I'm subjecting it to you here instead! :) Regarding generalization/specialization- How many Joes can the casual fan name when it comes to vehicle drivers?

Re: Jab's Power Profiles: Element Control! Move Object! Affliction!

Affliction is both the boon and the bane of third edition and, I think, it's one of those elements that highlight how the game was evolving toward a more free-form approach in certain areas. While it's miles away from Steve's Icons, it's telling that an entire bunch of set powers in 2e became a sing...

Re: Taros' Tokusatsu Builds (Ultra Q! M1! Larugeus! Garamon! Kanegon! Cicada Man! The 1/8 Humans! Pagos! Kemur!)

I'm astonished at how diverse some of these creatures are, even if some of them are clearly based on a single template.

The more I look at the Cobra troopers, the more I think they should really ask the Serpents Society for help in naming.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Kalibak! Steppenwolf! DeSaad! Darkseid!)

Poor Darkseid. He really did suffer when he was basically denigrated to "just" a Superman villain, rather than a villain for the entire 4th World or DCU. Like Jab mentions, while Darkseid should be more than capable of fighting off top tier heroes Thanos-style, that really isn't his role....
