Snaking the HIVE

The sad thing is no matter what he does he'll always be Sylar.
I hope not! I like Quinto as an actor so far, so heavy type casting would make me sad! On the other hand, the Spock picture isn't that bad, he pulls it off pretty well - except on the "choke-Kirk" picture... there it gets Sylar-esque. Which isn't surprising, of course.

Cheers, LT.

braaaaaains....... hungry..... need power....braaaaaains.....



As much as I like Heroes I kinda would like to see Harbinger done as a TV series. Heroes borrows a great deal from it already. Toyo Harada is much like Hiro's father, Peter Stanchek is... peter (hrmmm) and HARD Corps at the base level is like The Company.


Anone even know what I am talking about?

Now if they did the Wild Cards that would be great :)

It's not so much type-casting. It's when you see an actor in a major part first time for a decent length of time. Like that actor people will recognize as Sylar from now on. Elle, I was like 'oh that's Veronica Mars' while my roommate was like 'woah, it's Sarash Marshall from Forgetting Sarah Marshall'. Cause they say the character name so frequently you think of that name instead of the actual actor's name when you see that actor. Heck, half the time, I forget what the actress's name is who plays Elle, but I remember her characters' names well...

I never the Wildcards book series nor the comicbook limited series but many have suggested the two have much in common also. (meaning Harbingers and Wild Cards)


In Champions I did a HARD Corps character and boy was he ever so broken but so much fun to play, even once the bad guys figured how how to "jam" my powers.

Favorite tactic, as subtle as I always play my "Mania" characters- phase into the warehouse, scout for innocents, find none. Power up a little time bomb and leave. Rest of team arrives and BOOOM!. What happened? Don't know. Bad ammunition I guess? and of course the ENTIRE warehouse was leveled. :lol:
 

Mmmmmm...Champions/HERO. My favorite RPG.

(followed closely by Mutants & Masterminds)

Haven't been able to play in years- too many players were only interested in D&D- but there's some hope that my current game group may be warming up to a supers game.

FWIF, Wildcards is quite the excellent treatment of the superheroic genre by premier sci-fi/fantasy writers. They get all of the tropes right, and even introduce a few new wrinkles.

I really should look into getting a few of the books.

They are currently having Beta testing sign ups for the Champions MMORPG.

I actually haven't read any of the WildCard books and most likely wont pick up the Wildcards M&M book.
