hey guys -
I hadn't much response - so I was wondering if there was much interest in this sort of product for M&M.

Just let me know?

We've launched the IndieGoGo to fund this project.Currently it's ICONS - but if there's enough interest - it's easy enough to expand the project for M&M as well.

In the mean time - here are some samples of the art we've got for this project

This motor-cycle riding Ice Controller is called Chill - and is drawn by Rick Hershey

Image

This masked avenger is also by Rick - and we're thinking of calling him Payback
Image

This villainous clown is the Auguste Anarch - and he's drawn by Scott Harshbarger
Image

This demonic damsel is Hellrider - drawn by Jacob Blackmon

Seriously, tell us more about the product. I love the idea-and would be thrilled if this was in MnM, since that's what most on this thread play.

*cough*second edition*cough* :wink:

What kind of feel are these books? I'm seeing a lot of these riders with guns-very iron or bronze age, especially since one appears to be a hero. Where is the silver age silliness, or the Batman movie sort which turns into a motor cycle?

hey - sorry I didn't reply sooner - I actually missed the email about this thread updating.

the "big idea" behind Justice Wheels is simply a low cost/high quality set of paper miniatures that feature a wide ranging group of characters and their vehicles

It really seemed like something that was missing - as vehicles are pretty central to the comic-book genre.

Every Justice Wheels pdf contains

* images of a character with their signature vehicle
* standees/flats (ie paper miniatures) of the character and their vehicle
* stats for both and
* options for using the character in your game as either a hero or villain

So - sort of like Instant Superheroes - but with cars and standees. :)

There's a variety of "feels" in the Justice Wheels line. Some more Iron Age like those above AND some more light-headed (like this dune-buggy driving vigilante named Frogger from Jon Gibbons)

Image

and this fellow by Adrian Smith who gives me sort of a Night-Owl or Blue Falcon (with maybe some G-Force/Gatchaman)
Image

or the Nebula Wraith and his Wraith Cruiser - by Dan Houser
Image

These are just a few samples. As you can see - we've got a pretty diverse range of characters.
We've got 17 pdfs planned for Justice Wheels with 6 additional Justice Wheels characters who've been commissioned by backers of the IndieGoGo, and they'll (hopefully) be in the mix as well.

You're making this for both ICONS and M&M? Make it a Print on Demand for either and I will be doing my best to grab it.
