So anyway, I made a custom clix based on the Bruce Wayne from the Elseworlds comic "Batman: In Darkest Knight".

The basic storyline is: Early in Bruce's crime fighting life (before the bat outfit), Abin Sur crashes near Wayne manor. Bruce gets the Green Lantern Ring. etc....

Darkest Knight Pics (http://www.geocities.com/uberursine/batgreen.htm)

The dial does a pretty good job of representing what Bruce does thru the comic. He gains some neat powers, but isn't the hand to hand bad boy that the "standard" batman is.

I used Retardogs Dial Generator v.93b to determine cost etc... You'll note that he has both Batman and Green Lantern team. I couldn't decide which would be more apropiate, and learned that the point cost thing will just add both together. (This way is actually 2 points more expensive than just using a wild card to cost it.) *Oh, I used the x-man cost for green lantern - seemed roughly equal...

Then I got a little silly, scaned in a pic from the comic and made the fig, with soaring action!!!

Let me know what ya'll think, and if you want to make you own, follow this link for a PDF file with everything you need to make your own. (Right click, save as...)

If anyone has a good pic of The Tick and Auther let me know, I'll make them next...

Nice dial, though if I had to add my 2 cents Id suggest raising his Speed (since the GLs can travel VERY fast), Raising his Damage (since Batman without a Power Ring can do more than 2) and maybe raising his AV and DV as well a bit, since those are his normal stats, and Im sure the GL Ring would raise them a point or two. Also, maybe give him a GL team affliation only, since I dont know how much sneaking around and stealthing hed be doing with a glowing green aura around him. :)

Good feedback, thanks!

Speed: ya the GLs are extra fast, but it never came up in the storyline, so I didn't think of it.

Damage: Ya, Batman without a ring does more damage, but in the story Bruce almost died in his only "fist to cuffs" battle. I think the ring and it's powers suplanted his physical training.

I think the Batman team is appropiate as he did the classic sneak up on Commisioner Gordon thing.

Any other comments? Positive, negative

Has anyone printed it out an made their own?

Does anyone care?

Later!
