Yeah, it's still nice to see that Jason Todd again! By the way, who is that behind Jason Todd, black suit Mary Marvel, and who else is that in the back???

So: Black Adam, Red Hood, Nightwing, Starfire, The Monitor, Harbinger...and the rest is difficult to see. I think thats Booster Gold as Supernova on the far right. batwoman on the bottom right.
That should be correct.
I have no idea who's on the booster with Red Hood though? Is that Talia maybe?

52 Booster 1:
Batwoman, yea!!!
Black Adam, okay... :)
Supernova, yea!!!
Countdown Booster 2:
Jason Todd Red Hood, omg yea!!!
black Mary Marvel, yea!!!
???
Crisis on Infinite Earths Booster 3:
Harbinger, omg yea!!!
Monitor, omg yea!!!
Teen Titans Booster 4:
Nightwing, yea!!!
Starfire, nice!
That's 1/6 of the set we already know, once I figure out who that lady on the Countdown booster is...oh, is it Forerunner??? Maybe!

Yay, Black Adam means more Monster Society of Evil keyword characters (hopefully. Mr. Mind is lonely). I hope Dr. Sivana is in the set and isn't a pog.

Thanks,

Yes, thanks AndrewT, I know this is a redo thread, but it is nice to talk about the Crisis set any time there is a chance! I finally figured out it was Forerunner after thinking about it for a minute. :)
The Forerunner art is a little different from the official Countdown comic art, it's hard to tell with the black and white version anway. Can't wait to see those boosters in color though. You know which box I will always choose to buy! :)
I hope Dr. Sivana is in the set and isn't a pog.
If that happened.. I would be one angry fan boy.. :mad:

Maybe, when Crisis comes out, make sure you post the first time you knock out a Jason Todd figure, but only if you post the first time a Jason Todd knocks your character out!
I'll bet you a REP that Jason Todd knocks one of your characters out before you knock him out next year!!! :)
1st time Ive seen it, thanks!

Crude. We finally get a new Nightwing and it's disco-collar.
This is another case of me missing the R/E/V system. Sure we got our three Nightwings back in Hypertime, but I for one would love to see...
R- Titans
E- Batman
V- Outsiders
LE- PD
And stats that didn't plumet like a rock after a click or two of damage.

If Jason Todd KO's the Joker, it should be "Poetic Justice." The Joker cried like a baby when Jason took the crowbar to him a couple years ago. :cry: Ha, ha, laugh about that, you funny, funny clown!!! :laugh:
Seriously though, they should definitely be Archenemies if any characters ever should be! :)

Forerunner. UGH.
You can say that again.
I want to quit buying Countdown to Adventure soo bad every time her face pops up in that backup feature, but I'm digging the main story with Animal Man, Adam Strange, and Starfire too much.
Forerunner, as a character, isn't necessarily a bad idea, but the stories she's been in thus far are criminally boring, making it impossible not to hate her.
I have never lit a heroclix figure on fire before. Clearly the time approaches.

Actually, she is a pretty lame character that never appeared in 52, which was a pretty stellar series, by the way.
Forerunner is a character from Countdown, the maxiseries, and its sister miniseries Countdown to Adventure features her adventures as a back-up feature.

I don't understand why this Forerunner would merit getting made after barely existing two months and why she would be on the box art.

similar to Shathra from Marvel, Manhunter (Kate Spencer), Guardian from Manhattan (DC), Crimson Avenger II, Shining Knight II, Bulleteer, and others - they're pretty still new and still get clixed for some other reason that makes WK think that they are cool. :confused: But I like them all! Esp I have found a way to make Shathra more useful. :)

Forerunner, along with Black Mary, forms a definitive tie to Countdown. Other characters - Pied Piper, Jason Todd, etc - do, too, but the both of them are very much "Countdown." They're distinct to that series in particular in a way that the others are not.
She also may have been mandated by DC - they seem pretty intent on pimping certain characters. The August General really didn't belong in Justice League, yet there he is (not that I mind; I love the Great Ten).

Forerunner was the name of her 'race'. Her name is Viza Aziv (her last name is her first reversed?), every just calls her that, since she's the last. Like DarkSied calling Superman Kryptonian.
From Wiki
The Forerunners' planet is the Earth of an alternate universe, ravaged after years of destructive war between humans and other planets in the solar system which ended their race. The other "Nine Houses" (planets and dwarf planets) of the Solar System declared the planet "War World" where they would battle for occupancy. Survivors of the wars - the strongest and fittest - remained on the planet and interbred, unknowingly coerced by the Monitors and forming the Forerunners, a species possessing traits of the other planets such as those of Green Martians and Saturnarians.
Though a character without much history, nor fanbase, she's pretty powerful.
She's got Superstrength, speed, Invulnerablity, telepathy, can turn invisible.
Donna Troy hurt herself punching Forerunner.
She solo'd an alternate reality JLA (JL Axis). Suoerman, WonderWoman, and Flash

Forerunner is a terrible character.... But she has Honor.. or should I say Honour.
Hell, looking at the booster art we are already getting the Crisis version of her character in Harbinger. I love how DC created a naming style of simply looking at MS Word and looking at the other meanings of Harbinger to naming Forerunner.
She's a terrible character and well, I plan on busting or throwing away every Forerunner heroclix piece I pull.

Black adam is the definitive super piece of the set Im guessing we will see a martian manhunter from WWIII to go with him, but basically 52 cumlminated with the last dozen or so issues going to Black Adam's personal war on earth or the societies that held back knowledge or persons who had something to do with the killing of Isis and her son. Essentially Black Adam is one of if not the coolest mother ####ers around and they cannot write enough about him. Even now the black suit Mary Marvel is just a test from Black Adam to see how she copes with what he calls a curse(his gods of power). She isn't and is failing misreably. She's has the brain and responsibility of a child how she ever was a hero Ill never no but I can only assume you needed a female character under a true hero as part of a team and there she is. She has the Anakin Skywalker persona and is written like it to perfection. As for Forerunner? Who knows and who cares the whole search for Ray Palmer deal is lame. Im like the biggest Palmer fan but he's always been out of the scene sort of speak or had his own agenda for the most part and how he can save the multiverse is beyond me.
The only thing Im in disagreement with atm is 52 tied into almost ever DC series at that time but Countdown doesn't. I was close to cancelling countdown and all its titles a few weeks back but they had an issue that was almost completely devoted too the trickster and piper and although there not A class villians there adventure is exciting. And booo to killing the best Flash ever. Upon the death of Bart Allen and the very LAME bringing bat of Wally West I cancelled my Flash subscription. If it ended cool, but not with some lame ### we need a Flash so Wally's back jazz.
Im just wondering where Superboy Prime fits into all of this? I mean everyone and there mother wants him to be made at close 300 pts but it doesn't seem to be something that the creators want. I mean he was a huge part in the new Crisis and is one of the most powerful if not the most powerful force in the Sinistro core after the obvious Anti-Monitor, Parallax and OA's ancients(Ganthet, etc).
I think Id drop Salaak and a couple more GL's too at least oen more a set. A new Kilowak couldn't hurt. Solomon Grundy and Gorilla Grodd are also in a dire need of being remade as huge fan favorite game pieces cause there in every series with huge rolls. Well at least Grodd is. Id like to see another Sinestro aswell maybe around 200 eventhough he's V is amazing for 144?
I went on too long as it is but yeah hooray for a new more powerful Black Adam and thanks for that. Lets just get in some other gravy while were at it. And focus more on the "old school" then the new school.
Still need...
Adam Warlock
Hercules
Mephisto
Starlord
Pip the Troll
Moonknight (if anyone was satisfied with that latest debacle shoot yourself)
Wolverine (still not quite done right again, 9 clicks for sure, 12 av to start, 3-4 clicks of regen, some willpower, some toughness, some stealth, some flurry and some battle fury etc but done right. Maybe a flurry + charge to start
Gorilla Grodd
Solomon Grundy
Firestorm
Deathstroke
Armored Lex (and don't blow your load on the first 2-3 clicks)
Bizarro (something more playable, drop some DV for some AV)
Neron
And maybe even a Wonder Woman. There's some good ones out ther ebut I still don't think she quite right.

Is it just me, or did I see a "Heroes" Heroclix coming out next year? If so...YUCK! (Never watched the show....seemed dumb)
As far as Crisis clix and the Anti-Monitor coming out......Wow! Can't wait to get a Monitor! He's Sentinel size and he's gonna be NASTY!!

I am more intrigued by the Anti-Monitor action pack with the Barry Allen Flash in the foreground. $29.99 seems a bit pricey, but I may have to break down and pick this up for my collection.
