IST25 Outline, as of 10/22/2013
 
#31
Hmmmmm... I'm not suggesting you pander to the Line Editor's tastes in games, but if you really want to, you might add a little more Warriors' World and a little less four-color to the mix.

The important bit:
Quote:I don't really like the Big Damn Heroes version of the comics, so I'd be at odds with you there. The only mainstream super I ever liked was Wolverine, and he kills people left and right. (When I read about supers at all . . . I spent more time reading comics closer to Those Annoying Post Bros.) I can't get it out of my head that plausible bad guys play for keeps, so plausible agents of good have to play just as hard. The protagonists' heroism emanates from using their power only to foil bad people, and from making an effort never to harm the innocent . . . not from some high-minded vow not to give as good as they get when battling evil. I find that the latter wrecks my willing suspension of disbelief about as much as fighting Hitler by tying up his thugs with Silly String when they're trying to shoot you.
