Holy Crow and Tom Servo! That's a lot of pain! I've always wondered if they would make a clix of this incarnation of Hulk. Does that mean they plan to make a Wolvie Death and Caliban Pestilence?

Word!

My great grandfather was Irish. He married a full blood Cherokee. I guess they can't make a movie about my life until they find another Irish Cherokee out there.

And until I do something movie worthy.

Sorry for taking the thread off of the rails...I'll move along now.

I had quit for a while because of too any hobbies and games. Now that I have a new son my time is extremely reduced, especially weekends. My only free day is Thursdays. My local store, Allthingsfun, has heroclix tourneys on Thursdays. They had a great post about GSX and the more I read the more I missed clix. So I am back...and I think at the right time. I have always been a marvel fan.

On a related note, I really wanted the Magneto to make a brotherhood team but now that Whulk is something special. I have bought a case and if I only get one super rare may it be Whulk! Whulk dominate! Lick Whulks boots!

Superman was just an example, a go to for someone everyone knows is invincible. I don't think Ultron's Adamantium shell should suddenly get ignored either. I think it would be absolutely fair and as comic-accurate as HC can get if Ultron took one damage and the symbiote took two.

Lian was just an example as well, a personal bias against people using pogs doesn't justify Hulk doing penetrating damage via hurdled flesh-bombs.


Clearly it's a moot point, the figure is out of play testing, has been sculpted, painted, shipped from China, and will be in people's hands in just over two weeks.
If you like that War Hulk can do Penetrating with his hurdled person attack, well then, bully for you.

Those of us who think it's a bit over the top are dung out of luck, aren't we?

Eh, I do.

If it didn't do penetrating damage, people would kvetch about it being a useless power (even though it would give Hulk range).

Really? You think that being able to do 6 damage at ten range, even when not normally being able to make such an attack, AND rearrange the battlefield layout wouldn't look like a good power to most people?

Actually Superman does have a weakness to magic it's one of the reasons he had to trick Emperor Joker into giving up his powers before beating the snot out of Mista J

Not that's it's relevant to anything but the guy who played Kingpin was a great fit even though he was a different race than the chaarcter in the comics

It of course, vasilates between writers, but my understand is that it's not that Superman has a "weakness" to magic, but more that he doesn't have any special defense against it.

Basically, magic spells can be cast against him and used to hurt him, just like they would anybody else.

All I can say is Holy Mackerel, OMG, and WTfunk!

Can someone provide the reference for the power? Evidently he threw someone at a teammate and said that in one of the comics...? Anyone know the specifics? That might help figure out whether the power is warranted. Maybe someone was thrown at Colossus or Juggernaut and knocked him out? That would seem to be Penetrating Damage...but again, I don't know the specifics.

Oh, it's warranted alright

War Hulk is from the Heroes Reborn era after Onslaught separated the Hulk from Banner both mentally & physically. Banner now being a powerless human decided to jump into Onslaught and help absorb his energy. But Banner still retained a tentative connection to the Hulk that allowed the Hulk to absorb energy from the "Heroes Reborn" universe. This energy made The Hulk far stronger and for the first time he was truly alone. A lot of people didn't care for the direction of the Hulk during this time because he was morose and a borderline villain in his own book. However on a happy note it was during this run that we got introduced to a new group of "heroes" THE THUNDERBOLTS who are sent by the government to take down The Hulk.

Awesome! Rep! What comic is that from?
