How about taking an hour and alphabetizing the costume parts in the character creator? It would make creating characters a bit easier.

I brought this up a month ago and many forum-goers rushed to say it's undoable because of something they heard 3 years ago.

I really don't think making the game hard to see is a great way to celebrate Halloween.

/signed. Too bad the devs will never see this.

I imagine 5e will be out either next year or 2013. It's probably already mostly written. They're hopefully playtesting the heck out of it right now.

Street Justice/Willpower scrapper

Radiation/Fire Blaster

I LOVE the general concept. Now it just needs tweaked to fit an archetype. I'd be fine with it being a Defender primary and Controller secondary, as well.

Does anyone else get the feeling that many on these forums don't want any changes, no matter what is suggested?

What I really hate is seeing people get 12 names, of which maybe 3 will actually get played more than a couple days. The rest is just the player being a jerk.

I have Retrogirl and Cogsworthy. I'm happy.

Now that B&N has no competition, they can act like this and expect DC to cave. Gotta love monopolies!

How about a Ranged set using a staff or rod? We already have access to Nemesis Staves and the wand for transforming Lost, so I think this would be really cool.

Is Paragon that frightened of competition that we can't mention games like Champions Online?

I wonder why Forbin is opposed to customer-friendly solutions to problems?

A lot of kung fu styles are punch based, not to mention wrestling and throwing. They don't have enough animations for those, either. (Wing Chun, Aikijitsu, Jiujitsu)

Also, your thread title makes no sense compared to what you are actually asking for.

I'd love to see Fire Whip propagated to scrappers, brutes, and tankers. I think you'd only need to add one or maybe 2 animations, since some slots would be filled with build ups.

I noticed her in a couple issues, though it seems she's most popular in issues I didn't buy. Curious.

Supergirl #1

The story begins with an asteroid shower very similar to Superman's. Some undefined military organization tracks it. Supergirl pops out of an asteroid in Siberia. She isn't sure what's going on and at first thinks she is dreaming. Then she gets attacked by guys in power armor.

It's a pretty action-packed issue, but with little characterizations that are fairly revealing, showing Supergirl's thoughts as she is trying to figure out what is going on.

The art was very good. I thought Supergirl's outfit was pretty good. The armor suits looked cool.

I liked the issue. It is mostly from Supergirl's point of view, and she is confused, and so was I. I'm sure things will be cleared up next issue, but it would have been nice for there to be some kind of ID for the power armor military guys.

Justice League Dark #1

This series forms a Justice League variant that deals with the occult. The members apparently will include John Constantine, Zatanna, Deadman, and Shade. Madame Xanadu is in this issue, though I don't know if she will be a member of the League or not. Same with some girl named June Moone, though I suspect she is just a fulcrum point.

Enchantress has apparently gone insane is the "villain". The regular Justice League attempts to deal with her but get smacked down. So various magical superheros are magically pulled together to form their own team.

The artwork was very good. The first issue is really just setting stuff up. Some things happen, but mostly, the reader is left guessing. It's obvious that the team's formation will cover several issues.

I liked this comic. It wasn't amazing, but it was pretty good. I think issue #2 will have to be read before I can really decide if this series will be great. I will buy it to make sure. I will definitely be picking up the graphic novel, and I might subscribe to the regular issues.

Catwoman #1


The comic starts in an action scene. Selina then meets her fence, who I assume will be a recurring NPC in this series. She then goes undercover at a Russian mob party, looking for information on items to steal. We get to see a little bit of her backstory, as she meets someone she knew when she was younger.


Then Selina and Batman meet. I won't post spoilers, but I think many long-term Batman fans will either be really excited or kind of annoyed. I fall in the annoyed camp.


This comic was ok. That's about all I can say for it. It had some good parts, but I think the Batman scene was just fan service that doesn't feel right.


I was a pretty big fan of the Catwoman series by Brubaker and Cooke back in 2002. So I had high hopes for this series. If that series was released today, I'd be excited about it. Too bad it wasn't.


The art was pretty good. Not amazing, but no badly drawn scenes, either. I might buy the graphic novel, but that's pretty iffy. I think most people would be safe avoiding this comic.

Aquaman #1

Aquaman is in Boston at the start of this series. Apparently, he grew up there. He's also become bulletproof. I'm not sure if this is brand-new, or something that came about in the last few years.

It's an interesting story, taking square aim at many of Aquaman's critics. The robbers laugh at him, the cops make jokes about him, and a blogger tells him he's second-rate. And yet, he wants to remain on land and defend humanity. I'd say he's a stand-up guy.

I also love the bit where he goes to a seafood restaurant and orders fish and chips, and the whole place just stares at him and tells him he can't do that.

And Cthulhuesque deep ones are the apparent new bad guy that he will have to deal with soon.

The artwork was really good. Really, some of the best I've seen in the #1's.

The story was excellent, and was written by Geoff Johns. I will definitely be buying the graphic novel. I'm strongly considering subscribing, as well.

Not impressed. She just doesn't fit the part. I'd rather have someone a little more unconsciously sexy, like Julie Newmar or Michelle Pfeiffer were. Anne is going to have to do the best acting of her career for me not to think of her as "romantic comedy girl/princess".

Even a more hardnose wild girl, wearing the outfit from the recent Catwoman series with combat boots and goggles, would be better.
