1. Can lunge be used with Charge? (As long as the character meets all requirements.)
I'm fairly sure that if the character posses flurry, charge, and Leap and climb (Lamppost Batman), they could charge in for the first attack and lunge for the second.
2. My question is would they character be able to charge, then lunge the two spaces, then attack and then flurry?
1. Yes it can be used with charge as long as you have the prerequisites.
2. Yes. For example, Hercules can charge with flurry for 4 then lunge 2 at the target hitting the target, then Hercules can automatically break away move up to 2 squares and make the second flurry attack. This allows for better placement of your characters.

The only reason I ask is because I was reading another thread on the forum that made what seemed to a legitimate argument as to why lunge did not work with charge. Something about charge being a move action.
Yes, which is why you do the CHARGE move, then Lunge and then the Close combat action. In CHARGE, you are granted a CCAction after the resolution of the movement, so lunge would only activate then.
But...Nightcrawler really has been my favorite character for years.

First of all Charge is a Power Action. Charge allows you to move half your movement value and gives a free Close Combat Action. A close combat action is an action that allows you to make a close combat attack (Read the Glossary in the Rulebook). Which is why Charge is an action that ends in a close combat attack, and as such can be used with Lunge.
Move and Attack is a Move Action that allows a close combat attack to be made. Lunge can be used with that as well.
It doesn't matter what the action is, as long as the prerequisites for Lunge are met and the action given ends in a close combat attack.
Charge doesn't end after the halved movement is made. Charge ends after you've used the Close Combat Action (given as a Free Action) to make a close combat attack. Thus Charge, as an action that ends in a close combat attack can be used with Lunge, as long as the prereqs for Lunge are met.

Hey. Would it be ok then if you have Hypersonic Speed to move say half your movement, then lunge the 2 squares and then attack the target, then move the rest of your movement?

Yes this works. The only problem is that there are only 11 clix that fit that criteria. The best ones to use for that idea would be Vet Black Adam and Vet Supergirl.
Edit: you would have to hypersonic until you are 2 spaces away from the target use lunge and hypersonic away
example: With Supergirl's dial, she has 11 movement hypersonic. You can hypersonic 8 squares until you are 2 spaces away from your target, lunge 2 spaces, do your close combat attack, then hypersonic away the remaining 3 spaces. Essentially your speed gets double perplexed by using this feat.

I think Rare Superman from Justice League would do good with this. Getting CCE on the front and back of his dial. Giving him an effective 12 square movement up front when HSS and making close combat attacks.
