Will there ever be another Marvel or DC superhero RPG?

On a related note, does anyone know of a source for dirt-cheap Heroclix minis? I've noticed on eBay that they're no longer easy to scoop up for a quarter apiece. They start around a buck now and up.

Doesn't sound like pure win to me. Everybody has a physical attack, even if it's a weak one. Not everyone has a mental or spiritual. Having general attributes for stuff that isn't general to most characters doesn't make much sense, and is obviously a major avenue for min-maxing. All those DC Heroes they gave stats for actually had scores above the minimum for attributes they had absolutely nil use for, just as a way of turning a blind eye to the dump-statting loophole.

Skills had a kind of bizarre way of working too, particularly martial arts. IIRC, once you had martial arts skill, it took the place of ability scores, which again led to obvious dump-stat possiblities.
You're thinking only in terms of powers.

If you're trying to fast-talk someone, it's a mental attack.

If you're trying to resist someone's spell, it's a spiritual attack.

Actually, interaction skills are mystical. And a spell might be mystical or mental, depending.

DC Heroes was the original "Charisma = sorcery" game.
