To the Crossword Solvers:
20 Down has a mispelling. It should read:
A rite of passage for Supers.
Sorry about that!
I have yet to see anyone be on the right track for 18 down...
I had no idea this was going to be so evolved! 
Excellent work, really liking it all.

16 Down, Stay in Character (6 letters)
Not the slightest clue.
[/ QUOTE ]
It's a server...
[ QUOTE ]
18 Down, It only has one 'L' (5 letters)
I *believe* it's a zone name. It's really not much of a clue to go on though, but a zone does fit.
[/ QUOTE ]
Exactly. It's due to the pronunciation 
[ QUOTE ]
I haven't gotten
3 across: what this puzzle is not
I have s__o_u (I may have 1 or 2 down wrong)
[/ QUOTE ]
Same, but just as clueless as of yet.
[ QUOTE ]
19 across: she who bore the wings (7 letters, last one is t)
No clue.
7 down: first to wear a trenchcoat
I believe this would be the thug enforcers, but that doesn't fit. (or the ppd psi cops - also doesn't fit)
[/ QUOTE ]
Think rednames.
[ QUOTE ]
20 down: A right of passage for Supers (4 letters, 3rd is 'u')
No idea.
[/ QUOTE ]
Something earned. You're thrown off because you're 3rd letter is wrong. Rethink your spelling of 23 across (hint: too many vowels, not enough consonants).
EDIT: the other one that throws me off (besides 3 across) is 17 across: "Invented Inventions". A clue anyone? Not looking for the answer, just a pointer
For 17 across: Think rednames. :P
For 3 across: Think popular type of puzzle.
Thanks to the hints, I think I got everything, but not sure if 11 down is right.
What do you think 11 Down is?
In the part of Seyda fix the part where it says
"What zone is your favorite?
Croatoa and Atlas What is your favorite Storyline in the game?
I like the two high level Carnie Arcs from Madeline Casey and Harvey Maylor. Those ones and Croatoa in general."
Notice you asked another question in the same sentence.

Pets. The thing is, don't you only get one at 36 months?

Well, there is a selection of them...
I love the idea, very nice first issue, keep up the good work

Sudoku?

This is what 3700 heroes in a single zone looks like.
Thanks to @EnsonsDeath for the GVE code that made me VIP again!

Greatly enjoyed it. I immediately printed out the crossword puzzle (in greyscale to save ink), and went about completing it. Only have 10 down, 11 down, 16 down and 18 down left to go.
Also, I would love to be interviewed for Behind the Mask.

So, you enjoyed the picture version? Great!

Nice! I was a bit skeptical when I first heard about this plan, but now that I see it it's pretty cool.
You guys did a good job!
Very well done! After all these years, the city is really starting to feel alive!

Well, I got most of the crossword stuff. It seems I'm not having trouble with the same ones as other people here. The clue of a zone name got me 18, but I still can't figure some out. The ones I don't have:
3 down - Crey's Regret
S _ _ A _ S _
I guess I missed a storyline somewhere or something
9 across - Izzy, to her friends
_ _ _ _ _ _ I _
Not a clue
14 down - Why your teammates want you dead
_ _ N _ _ _ _ _ E
"Stupidity" and "Invincible pre-SOs" don't fit, so I have no idea
20 down - A rite of passage for Supers
C _ P _
I have no idea - none of the things I could think of are that short
Edit: Okay, I figured out 20 down. Still don't know the others, though.
Edit 2: Thanks to a few vague hints I got in a PM, I've finished them off! Man, there were some obscure references in there. I loved it!

I dunno, that's not the only one-L word that fits.
