Trigon's ability to create barriers without using an action adds a lot to his playability, giving him defensive compensation for being a big target.

Yeah, Trigon should really get a mention.

I'm partial to a few of my Support figs taking dual roles.

SR Scarlet Witch- Yeah, she has PC, but that Barrier has come in handy many times over.

Dr. Alchemy- Paired with TK or Poison plus SC he's great.

Kyle Rayner- Has the Construct feat built in.

One of my favorite tactics with the Brotherhood is have a Magneto with Inspiring Command guarded by a rotating double Barrier from Pyro and Avalanche.

Love Blizzard, just used him last week!

AV SR Scarlet Witch is a good barrier piece, but I figure she is going to show up in a different category!

And what, no mention of SIF?

I know it's not barrier, but I use R Shade A TON. I bet I'm not alone. The willpower smoke cloud makes his THE BEST Batman enemy to go on your Batman team. I'll take him over any Robin or Batgirl for the price.

omnimon177! Yes, weeee want Arkillo! while he eat someone in close combat, he prevents interference with his special: i approve.

Check the old Smoke Cloud article!

played a golden age 400 point Sinestro corps team and his barrier was far and above my MVP in winning the game.

One of my favorite combos back in the day was AW Magneto and r Pyro fun times

Floronic Man could have been mentioned : while his range is lower than low, the 4 clics of Barrier+the possibility to do 8 squares of Smoke Cloud that create damage (thanks to his 2 SPs)+Regeneration end dial make him a particuraly nasty and long-lived blocker at 30 points less than Icicle. The IL at. TA with the Society assure he will be creating wild plants for nearly all the game.

Why does everyone want me to list Smoke Cloud figures in my Barrier article?!
