Represent yo peeps

[PantherPriest]

We spend many hours debating the validity of characters on their translation from printed page to melted mold. Often we, especially those who are ardent comic fans, will complain that a character is not well represented on the comic standards. I wish to start a topic by asking who is the most correctly represented character to date, in terms of the source.

I will start the topic with Nick Fury Agent of S.H.E.I.L.D. I believe that he couldn't of been done better, when I think of Nick Fury this exactly what I would expect him to do.

Firelord is represented perfectly.

Peeps are those little sugary marshmallow treats that come out around this time of year.

And as delicious as they are, peeps deserve representation. Otherwise they will be hunted into extinction for the sake of our yearly rituals.

SAVE THE PEEPS!

[Melkoloran]

Mmmm.... peeps.

Someone else mentioned in another thread that Human Torch is just about right, and I'm beginning to believe it.

I'm pretty happy with Sabretooth, as well.

[Funky Jett]

I like the Rookie Thug. He couldn't be represented any better than he is right now!

Sorry... it had to be done. :)

[webhead817]

I'll second the vote for Sabertooth, particularly the exp. and le's.

I honestly believe that the Hulk from IC was done right as well. Even though it doesn't make him playable in every scenario, it still represents his transformation very well.

[JacinB]

Robin. Robin is as close to perfectly represented as a clix gets.

[PantherPriest]

yes, rookie thug good choice.

I believe veteran criminal could not have been done better. I would say blade, but he has no range.

Veteran Hawk and dove are done almost better than I expected

[Funky Jett]

In all seriousness, I agree with you about Hawk and Dove. They seem to mirror the comics very nicely.

[PaladinKWA]

I like all the Scarlet Witches. Wanda in clix is just like she is in the comics, useless unless she alters probability.

I like Nightwing a lot too. Outwit, leap/climb, Titans ability, Batman ability. Oh yeah!

Worst figure? Constrictor! Only 1 lightning bolt with ranged attacks? Does he not have 2 cables coming out of his arms? 50+ points for 1 short distance ranged incapacitate? I think someone shaved the points off Firelord and put them on poor old Frank....

Actually, yeah. He's tough, (Big, long dial) but Spider-man can still hurt him.

[Captain Spoon]

I would say bullseye, was represented very well, not perfect but him being one of my favorite comic book character... i don't complain, though it's not perfect....

-SPOON!-

[Remy Lebeau]

Nice thread, I like a positive outlook on Heroclix every so often.


I would have to say Unique Wolverine in my eyes is a GREAT figure done perfectly to the comics of the stealth/ninja type version of Logan.

Very happy with the figure.

[Spookythecat]

As a side-note to this, I'd much rather have characters with interesting dials than perfect representations of comic characters. Are the Joker or Doctor Strange anything like their comic counterparts? Not really. Are they both enjoyable figures who make sense within the game? Heck yes.


And, back on topic, I think that the Wasp and Six-armed Spider-man are represented pretty well.

[PantherPriest]

six armed spidey should've had more arms.

Is doctor strange not like the comics? I thought he was very close. And is joker really that far off?

[JoFo]

I think sandman is done pretty good aswell.

[Melkoloran]

I found Strange to be very much like his comic counterpart considering the limits that the powers in the game put on him.

[PantherPriest]

wow this thread has a lot of views, somebody say something.
