The Book of Captain Boomerang (George Harkness)

[Griffin]

That is a very impressive list. I think one way to make this guy unique from Boomerang and still be very thematic and fun would be to give him 3 separate special powers/attacks and make each one unique. I like that list. Thanks for doing the research too.

Yeah, I know that's not technically how boomerangs really move ... but their true movement would be soooo hard to translate mechanically.
I like the idea of the "preprogrammed boomerang to pick somebody or something up & move them." Maybe a ranged version of Vulture Grab?

[Griffin]

I love the idea of a power that lets him pick up glyphs.

I love an electro attack.

I love a gravity-rang.

In addition to what Griff posted I like Razor-rangs.

Here's one stab riffing off the descriptions above ...

ELECTRIC BOOMERANG SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 4 + Special. Attack 4 - Special.
The first target of Electric Boomerang Special Attack must be within a Range of 4. After attacking with this Special Attack, you may choose a space within 4 spaces of the space occupied by the first target and attack the chosen figure with this Special Attack. You may continue attacking with Electric Boomerang Special Attack in this manner until you have attacked up to 3 times. You may attack the same or different figures with each attack. For each additional attack, roll 1 fewer attack die. Any affected figure that occupies a water space rolls 1 fewer defense die. Figures with the Electrically Charged special power are not affected by this Special Attack.

I like that too Spidey. I would replace that for the Electo ones even. Also, I like the snatch and grab rangs to move people and glyphs - thought I should specify.

Good lord Bats! Tone it down brotha. We need 3 equally interesting powers on the one card.

I know it. I haven't given up on getting Returning Boomerang on this card, though! Also, I really think you could give this guy flying (I've seen him flying on his hover-boomerang many times) which would help further differentiate him from Boomerang.

Boomerang can Fly too. He has jet boots I think and his design has Flying.

I like Returning Boomerang, some type of Razor Boomerang power and a propelled Boomerang that can move figured and Equipment Glyphs. Plus flying if this guy does have Hover-rangs

[IAmBatman]

I can get on board with that list.
