About Pulp, I personally LOVE the Pulp Superhero genre. Hell, what this game really needs is some more zones/villlains and organizations set in different time periods that you can access through the main time period. Time travel to Golden Age WW2 superheroics, Pulp 30's adventure, Sci-Fi futurism..
Even at one zone a piece they would have more flavour than the additional "Yet another City Zone" zones we can have now..
