Generation Legacy: Part Three

I guess I thought that since 'Gay' was phonetically in 'Gabe' it would be too weird, but maybe I'm just over thinking. The Asgardian thing took me more than two reads, I was fairly confused before I finally got it. Should make for some interesting times with the Midwestern kid in the group.

I like Billy & Ted in the Young Avengers because they don't really make a huge deal of it, it's not an overly dramatic revelation or anything. Have you read the recent issues that focus on the specific characters? Wiccan/Speed's one is pretty sweet as well. The Runaways also do a good job, but they seem to explore it a bit more since the two characters didn't start as a couple (that and one is a shapeshifter which makes for some confusion).

Hrm, it's about bedtime I think. I think I'm starting to get less coherent :) Can't wait for this game to start!


My TOTALLY favorite runaways comment is when the little girl smacks Wolverine out of the church and he's in a snow bank going.. "There are only 198 mutants in the world and she's one?"

At the Moderate level (+4PL/+60pp), could you split it into a +2 to PL and +30pp or is it all of one and nothing of the other regardless?

Hmmm...looks like a decent compromise.

How did you want to work it? I don't really want to take control of the PC from you. Maybe just some general PMs, "this is what she does" and let you interprete that into posts?
 

That works, another possibility would be to have you just tell me what the motivations are at any given time that the entity is active and I just have Clover do the thing.

Either way works for me.

Sounds good.
 

Holding back is an interesting power drawback.

The thing is I just couldn't see it with most of the characters I make (don't make many 'controller' or 'blaster' types)

I mean..how would you put Cassie/Reach's powers out of control? Take on Rage till they Hulk Out?

Final editing done. I've thought about it more and decided it'd be more fun after all to make Raph a gal. What is it with GL and Super-Strong femme fatals?

A lot of straight male players that grew up reading Claremont in the 80s? :)


I can't wait for both of those series to get some more freakin' seasons, it's been taking wayy too long!

Amen. The delays give me mixed feelings about having TV writers write for comics. I don't blame them for prioritizing their main career (and it probably pays a few orders of magnitude better) but the publishers are indifferent enough to their own schedules without giving them more excuses.

Hooray for Phoenix! :p

So that's what's going on. I got the only two trades for YA. Read the first one...Cap's alive? How old is this? Noticed too that there was nothing new on the shelves excpet for the spotlights. Makes sense now.

Runaways, yeah, a buddy told me about that series a while back. Huh, you guys are way more well read than me...and here I thought I had pretty much given up on comics.

Yeah, it'd look pretty contrived on many concepts.

Yeah, the first issue came out in 2005 I think.

I'm a very casual comic reader these days. None of the big titles have done a lot for me in years. I snipe TPBs that sound interesting on Wikipedia. I look forward to Blue Beetle monthly and follow Teen Titans a bit more casually. I'm kinda-sorta reading Young X-Men, but it isn't that good so far.
