Cates is also writing Cosmic Ghost Rider where Frank Castle is space Ghost Rider. I haven't read it but it sounds very much my jam and I dig a lot of other stuff he's written.

Cosmic Ghost Rider is the best loving character. Also Covok forgot to mention the absolutely adorable Unstoppable Wasp which is just loving perfect in every way. Latest issue has Nadia (the new Wasp) meeting all her extended family, with all the comic book weirdness that implies.

I thought The Batman who Laughs was a play on The Man Who Laughs, the 1927 movie they ripped off for the Joker: Looks like it's actually just some dumb-rear end DC poo poo instead.

There will always be good comics published by the Big Two, and there will always be bad comics published. It's the way it always has been, and the way it always shall be. Well, until somebody works out printing paper pamphlets hasn't really been cost effective for over a decade, anyway.

Scott Synder https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Snyder Libertad! posted:How's Saladin Ahmed's current run on Ms. Marvel going? Too early to say. He's going far in an unfamiliar direction by taking Ms Marvel into space. That's a big deal as she almost never leaves New Jersey. There was one issue where she met her family in Pakistan and one issue where we followed Bruno in Wakanda. Outside of that, every issue of Miss Marvel has been in New Jersey. It's clear that Saladin wants to shake things up a bit. G Willow Wilson almost never had Miss Marvel fight supervillains. Whereas Saladin opened with a super villain fight. Like I said, it's impossible to see how it's going to play out. But I have a lot of faith because his work on Black Bolt was amazing and shows that he is capable of writing Amazing Stories. And his work on Exiles shows that he can write a diverse cast of characters. I get the vibe Saladin wants to keep her from her Supporting Cast for a little while, and I hope that is only temporary. I think he wants to shake things up a bit to avoid things getting stale.

Well, I've finished the first complete draft of my 7th Sea 2e Star Wars Hack. I've incorporated all of the specific feedback you guys gave me when I linked an incomplete version, but I'm sure there are plenty more flaws to discover and tweaks to be made.

From the GBS talk to transformer threadsuper sweet best pal posted:If you type up a short list of RPG character class descriptions it starts churning out weird ones of its own. It's mostly just "The Paladin is a holy knight" type stuff but there's occasionally an interesting one in there.

Laughed out loud at Witch and Gravekeeper, so definitely gonna run with those two in Tekken Tag Tournament vs. Procedural D&D Also I cannot believe they picked him to replace Blimpy And Aqua-Clone sounds like what happens when you do not have a skilled mentor while you make your Champions character Dino-Mummy

Used the first three classes as input (then fed the last few lines back in as input to see where it went) Aberdeen - This dashing warrior gets the benefits of Stealth while fighting in formation. Catch-a-Catch-All - A group of six friendly characters that all come equipped with an assortment of useful weapons that help them to take down foes and collect coins, tokens, and gems. Stealth - Just don't let her go for the kill. She'll turn around and charge at whoever she can catch with quick turns. Powers - Any character gain +2 to all stats. She also gains a single Power rank that she always gets at the end of a round. Siege Combat - After spending a week in the dungeon, choose from three of the Dungeon tiles that appear. These 3 tiles have been selected along with 4 other 3 tiles with the same or similar design. The player with the most gold at the end of the turn is the leader of the group. Fancy Weapons - A character gain one of the following: Sword - +2 to all weapon attack rolls. Hornet Shield - The characters gain +2 shields during the round. Bolting - The characters gain a +3 penalty to damage rolls made with a weapon that's aimed at them. They retain any damage reduction applied by their armor. Avenger - The characters gain a +3 bonus to initiative rolls. The above stats add up to roughly 15 AC, making it pretty difficult to kick your opponents when running at close range. While it's possible for characters to survive such attacks, the rest of your hit points should always be reduced by 5, which helps mitigate the risk of death. If a character is knocked down, they die and can no longer move. If a character gets knocked unconscious or dies while running, the fight ends there. If they have half of their hit points to spare while running, then they can keep running. That might not seem like a lot, but the risk you took in being tackled by an ogre, for instance, only increases by 5 points.

I had a dream that I saw a Shadowrun 7th Edition book in a store somewhere, with a bunch of people talking about how cool and updated the rules were and how it blended oldschool Shadowrun style gear porn with more modern game design ideas. I started paging through and they had an entire GM-only chapter dedicated to solving the "cyberpunk problem "and creating fun scenarios where your deckers could do stuff in the Matrix while the rest of the party was still actively playing and working towards mission goals. As I was flipping to that chapter from the Table of Contents, specifically looking for the mechanical set of steps it provided to produce scenarios like that, my alarm went off.

Has anyone subscribed to Chronica for online campaign management? Obsidian Portal's continual bugginess has gotten to me, so I've been checking out alternatives. It seems to have some pretty useful features, especially in map management which is good because I'm thinking of doing Birthright next. https://www.chronica.ventures/ I'm just wondering what I'm missing, to have not heard much buzz about it.

moths posted:There was a Judge Fear ripoff batman lately, too. Metal Batman? Pretty sure it's the same character, but it's the typical thing that happens where a neat gimmick in a very silly or specific context gets readapted for -and probably by- folks who didn't 'get' the original, or don't realize that something worked well as a very limited thing. Kinda like the way DC worked Watchmen or Constantine into its main continuity. Or hell look at a character like Redhood/Jason Todd from Morrison's stuff and Battle for the Cowl. He was specifically supposed to be an indictment of broody 90's xtreme antiheroes, but then got adapted into a crappy Grifter knock off who for some reason is still around even though DC owns Grifter now.
