Commlink: I tried to make Aquaman at PL10/150pp but doggone it, I just felt like he needed a little extra oomph to encompass all of his abilities. The man is one main members of the great generation of DC heroes and I thought he deserved some props. He can rumble, he’s got skills and of course, he has telepathy. I built the Harpoon Hand version, because I thought that was a neat period in his history. The Water hand was a little much for me.

So let's get something straight and I’m only going to say this once, so don’t forget it. (And now the rant begins...)

EVERYBODY GET OFF AQUAMAN’S BACK!

OK, the man is not the greatest of heroes, but he takes more crap than just about any hero I can think of. Why? Because he’s super strong? Because he fights the good fight all the time? Because he overcame losing his hand to continue to be great hero? NOOOOOOO…It always comes back to the talking to fish. It’s aquatic racism, that’s what it is!

Please...Like other heroes don’t have lame powers, too. No one rips Tarzan for talking to monkeys. No one rips the Atom for being able to SHRINK, like that’s so freaking useful most of the time. And don't even get me started with AntGoliathYellowJacket Man again and his TALKING TO ANTS!

I got Aquaman’s back, period. And if you’re not down with that, I got just two words for ya: HANK PYM!!!

In the Thorpacoverse, Aquaman is a reserve member of the Justice League while he continues to deal with his duties in Sub Diego since Attuma has taken over the city of Atlantis and has declared war on all the undersea kingdoms. Orin and Namor have a shaky alliance in hopes that they can overthrow him in the near future.

Clean Up 3/27/08: The Sea King gets pumped up to PL11. Same pp, just some minor tweaks.

Clean Up 1/11/10: Since I was basing him on the awesome Alex Ross version from Justice, I had forgot his regeneration and I added some Progression to his Animal Control (thanks Baron).

Comments: This is The General. This is the version of him when he fought the JLA and the Ultramarines. He is virtually unstoppable. He was able to recover quickly from a tactical atomic rocket, a special weopon that some thought would kill Superman whose radius of explosion was only 4 feet with no fallout. He carries around two machine gun type weopons with seemingly unlimited ammo. I gave him a limitation on his regeneration that it cannot heal mental damage. He transferred his consciosness into the Shaggy Man. That is why I believe he can still be harmed by mental damage though you will find no proof in the comics one way or the other.

He currently is part of the Suicide Squad and they will probably make him weaker than he was for no apparent reason.

This is my first post on this thread. Looking forward to posting more builds on this high profile thread. Thanks Thorpacolypse. Also I would love to see The General in action. I am not the best at posting battles.

Welcome to the J-Mart Team, scc! And a great first post. I was just thinking of updating Superman and I wondered who might be a good opponent for him. I think we have a strong conten-dah!

Even if it's not Supes, I think I can oblige. I need to run more combat to make sure my upcoming game runs OK.

He'll be indexed in a jiffy! Maybe even half a jiffy, which I believe is technically a jif.

Comments: This was a PC I made for an online game that fell apart, that I am hoping to use soon. I made send him with the folks in my ftf game as an NPC that I use to guide them towards the right path when they get off track. And with that group, they'll need it. My group definitely tends to be very Suicide Squad-ish in their dealings with criminals. The last game we ran when we were just learning the system last year ended up with a pretty high body count and at least two potential counts of arson and destruction of public property...

Background: Charlie Tatum was a (you name it, GM) City cop for 25 years. He was one of the few “good cops” left on the force since (insert appropriate mob boss here GM) started buying most of the force off. He was well-respected and well-liked by his peers and superiors, even by most of those on the take. But no one thought as highly of him as his son, Javon. Javon idolized his dad, just as most kids do, and he would tell anyone who would ask (and even most that didn’t), that he wanted to be a cop just like his dad.

Charlie, being the ever proud father, never told Javon that it would never happen for him. Even though Javon stayed true to his word all the way up through high school; never getting in trouble, becoming an all-state football player, a 3.5 student and a high level black belt by the age of 17. Javon was born with a severe light-sensitivity that required him to wear special sunglasses practically all the time. However, he could see very well, if not perfectly, in pitch darkness. Charlie knew that his abnormality would never allow him to pass the police physical, but he kept it to himself, because he would never want to crush his son’s dream. It had been just the two of them since Javon was 3, when his wife, LaTonya, left them, and Charlie and Javon were not just father and son, but best friends.

While Charlie never shared Javon’s visual issues, they did share something else. Charlie used to refer to it as his “seventh sense” (the sixth, as he always said, being his ability to sniff out a donut shop from a mile away). It always seemed like when there was a bad situation or danger near, Charlie could sense it. It helped him escape many a tight spot in his career. Javon could do the same thing. It especially served him well on the football field, where he was nearly unstoppable as running back at times, as he could always feel where the defenders were coming from, even if he couldn’t see them.

Going into his senior year, though, Javon’s world came crashing down. On a hot July night, Charlie and his partner, Mick Harriston, responded to a breaking and entering call at the RMX Chemical plant. The full details of the incident have never been released, but when the second unit arrived, they saw Mick face down in a pool of blood on the street and Charlie’s limp body hung on a street light some 15 feet in the air. The police searched the scene, but found no trace of the perpetrator and only a few odd chemicals missing. Amazingly, they were both still alive and were rushed to the hospital. Mick has been in a coma ever since. Charlie survived for two more days in the hospital before passing on.

Javon was devastated, as you would expect; even the hero’s treatment that his father received at his funeral was a slight comfort. After that, Javon moved in with his aunt Sophie to finish up his senior year before heading to Stanford on a full-ride scholarship. Even though he was able to keep his grades up, and continue to excel in his areas of interest, the uncertainly surrounding his father’s death consumed him. When he decided to request a formal inquiry, he got little cooperation. After months of red tape and delays, he finally snapped during a meeting in the District Attorney’s office as ended up getting arrested; however, not before using his fighting skill to incapacitate 10 police officers. It was during this incident that another ability of his manifested itself, the ability to create darkness in a small area, and with his ability to see in the dark, it gave him an incredible advantage over his opponents.

Javon was eventually given 3 years probation, despite the severity of the incident “as a last favor to Charlie” according to the DA. Because of his probation, and his desire to find out what happened to his father, Stanford pulled their scholarship and Javon enrolled at Jacobson Community College in (GM’s) city. He studied computer science during the days, and in the evenings, he continued to hone his fighting skills, as he swore to scour the underworld looking for leads, contacts, anything to help him find out what happened to his father. As he began searching through the dark areas of the city, he realized just how bad things had become. There were too many crooked cops to count, too many drug kings, too many mob bosses and recently, too many super criminals lurking in the bowels of the city for him to even know where to start when looking for his father’s murderer.

During one of his excursions into a bad area of (you name it, GM) City, he took down a gang of thugs that were about to assault a young woman. The woman told him she asked a cop for help just minutes before they closed in on her but he refused to get involved. It was after that incident that he realized his calling. He would be the city’s protector now, where the police no longer were able to perform that duty. With his ability to work in the darkness, and harkening back to what the young lady that he saved called him (her knight) he became MidKnight, the dark light of justice in a city blanketed in the suffocating darkness of a crime ridden city.

Comments: My take on Clayface, at least the animated version. Feat of Clay is my favorite Batman TAS episode(s) bar none, and I really loved their take on the Clayface character. I had forgotten that the original DCU Clayface was so different. Apparently the latest version is more like Matt Hagen from the Batman TAS.

Clayface a tough enemy for Batman because of his shape shifting abilities. He is hard to hurt, and even if you do, he is tough to hang onto.

Clean Up 6/12/09: I took another run at an Hagen inspired Clayface. This one came out a lot better.

Comments: Nothing like a Nazi Superman to get the peeps riled up. Here is Captain Nazi, long time foe of the Marvel family, current thorn in the side of the JSA. He’s a pretty straightforward paragon build with the extra kick of that Immortality power since he recently told Black Adam he will always exist as long as the Nazi beliefs exist. So he’s DEFINITELY immortal because Nazis are a villain staple in comics and movies so they will never go away.

Clean Up 1/17/10: Captain Nazi is a hard build to determine PL. One book he’s rumbling with Captain Marvel, the next book, Catman or Red Hood are pwning him. Plus, he’s pretty much the arch of CM3, who is about a PL9-10 IMHO. So PL11 is where I went with him for this update.

[Thorpacolypse]

As Dante has mentioned, there have been a lot of DC builds being stocked recently in comparison to the Marvel merchandise and he is correct. So our buyers went out and acquired this bit of Marvel merchandise for Aisle 2 and got a promise from the supplier that there will be a run of Marvel themed merchandise coming up later in the month!

And this special is guaranteed to bowl the customers over!

You're bowling me over with your lame arse jokes again!

Shut up, Randall!

Comments: Had to build Cannonball because I was reading X-Men #201 the other day and I forgot how cool he was. I’m loving he and Bobby carrying story these past couple of issues and I’ve always been a Cannonball fan.

Sam’s power set is pretty neat. He has a Force Field that he can only access when he is flying and it also gives him the ability to hit with a penetrating or Area Burst strike and also leave a trail of kinetic energy than can damage anyone coming in contact with it. Add those abilities to his leadership skills and you’ve got a top level X-Men on your hands.

Clean Up 1/1/09: Sam needed a clean up. I put his Blast Field powers into a Container that only works when flying and made a few other adjustments. I mainly reworked it because I felt he really needed Inspire and higher ranks in Tactics based on his recent performances.

Man, the J-Mart stockers were busy today! A personal record for posting!

10 new builds
2 updates
1 new build from scc

13 TOTAL BUILDS today. Granted, I had a week's worth of builds I needed to post, but that's a ton of stuff. Amazing what you can do when you kid naps and your wife is obsessed with college football today! And you put off your 10,000 "honey do's" for another week...

I've got a few more in the tank and then it will probably be a good lull in posting next week because I have a business trip in the middle of the week and gaming later, so whatever ain't up by Tuesday probably won't be up for a week.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend and thanks for shopping at J-Mart!

We did and you're welcome.

• The best he is at what he does, the old Canucklehead, Wolverine. He stabs, takes a beating, gets up and stabs again.
• Not much different here than the other Wolverine builds, except the way I constructed his Strike. With his bone claws, ergo, he has a natural Strike. With his Adamantium skeleton enhancements, his Strike becomes more devastating, so I added another layer of Auto-Fire and Penetrating. I think it represents his ability well.

Minor update to Wolvie. I forgot the Persistent feat on his Regen. I need to do the same to Mr. Creed.

Here is Josiah X, the son of the black Captain America, Isaiah Bradley. He’s currently missing in the Marvel universe, but found in the Thorpacoverse, and working will be involved in the story with Jason Todd and Luke Cage, if I ever get it going...

I wanted to make a Cap-type to work in with the group, and he more than fit the bill, having the same physical abilities as Cap, but not the experience, or charisma. However, he can turn on the charm when he needs to, as any good minister can.

His shield is not nearly as handy as Cap’s, but still very useful. I am still debating on the indestructible feat, since I thought I read that it was, but now I’m doubting myself and I have not been able to find out any more on it. Again, if anyone knows, please advise.

Clean Up 10/08/07: Tweaked Josiah X just a little in preparation for his big rumble...

RANDALL, CLEAN UP ON AISLE 2!

Hey, I finally got my Freedom City book back so know I am ready to set up the previously requested battle:

JOSIAH X vs. THE WHITE KNIGHT!

Look for it to hit the J-Mart shelves this weekend! And look for the forthcoming tales in the following weeks/months:

GENERAL MAYHEM: The General vs. The Thorpacoverse JLA!

WILD IN GOTHAM: The legendary Wildcat protects Gotham in the Dark Knight's stead against one of his deadliest foes!

LEGACY: Rose Wilson AKA Ravager has to decide what her legacy will be...

SINS OF THE FATHERS: THe BPRD and several other heroes must unravel a mystery that threatens the future of all magic in the Thorpacoverse...

DEAD IN AMERICA: Captain America's remains are missing. Can anyone really stay DEAD IN AMERICA?

[Libra]

(Please excuse me. I'm going to be quietly drooling in that corner of your office.)

Because no one demanded it, this new merchandise is on aisle 2. Just be glad it is free.

Comments: This is Cottonmouth. Member of the Serpent Society. He is a one trick pony. All he does is bite with his bionically enhanced jaws. One thing I haven't figured out about Cottonmouth is how he bites people and does not get sick. Could be fun on a team of villians in a low power level campaign.

Updated 10/18/07: Removed the drawback of power loss if he cannot bite. So now he is 61 points of terror.

I really look forward to all the fights you have lined up. Especially The General versus the JLA. Should be alot of fun. I really enjoy being on this thread. Hope this Cottonmouth writeup doesn't get me kicked off.
