hell yes bro
I have, but I've not finished reading it. I found something about it off-putting? It didn't occur to me at the time I was reading it, but maybe it was the d12s.
What Lost, Abandoned or Short Lived TTRPG would you like to see get a re-issue and new support?

I pulled out my 4e PHB a few weeks ago and I was reminded just how radically diffrent it was from all other versions of D&D.
I think a revamp could work if it was card driven, slightly simpler, reduced some option bloat, and was focused on a specific setting versus trying to be generic fantasy D&D.
You might want to look into Draw Steel. It's not exactly that, but it definitely has a lot of 4e DNA in it. And you get to kick bad guys through walls!
Marvel Heroic Roleplaying.
I know Cortex is still around...but a toolbox isn't really what I'm looking for. It's a neat system once you wrap your head around it. As an aside, I would kill to see Cortex do sword and sorcery...and Night's Black Agents (love the superspy vibe of that game but mechanically it just doesn't work).
Anyway, I overpaid for hardcopies of much of the MHR product line. I regret nothing! The campaign books are an incredible value, packed with stat blocks, story, and vibes. I really wish we had gotten an X-Men book (or two), Spidey and street-level heroes, etc, etc, etc.

You didn't get Civil War X-Men?

It does work for some. What are you saying doesn't work?
In case you are planning to run soon and one or more of your players want a dead tree copy... MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: Core Rulebook - HamiltonBook.com
They also have the X-men and Kang books, same price.
Marvel Heroic RP, not Marvel Multiverse.
Ooof, since I didn't play either and actually care very little for Marvel, I didn't even know there was a difference. Is one the d666 version?
Marvel Multiverse is d666. I haven't read or played it - but from what I've read about it, it's a pretty conventional RPG design.
Marvel Heroic RP is less conventional - some people compare it to Fate, although I don't personally think they're as close as is sometimes mooted. I think it's a terrific system. Here's my adaption of it to MERP/LotR: Middle Earth/LotR RPGing using Cortex+ Heroic
