Happy Happy Joy Joy guys! And thanks for all of the enjoyment your customs have given me these past four years. Looking forward to what's to come in the future!

Great release, folks! I've been digesting it over the last few days. So many interesting designs it's hard to pick out favorites.

So then give a review of them all, and let us know what you like!

Great release! I was hoping for Zemo (very curious to see how Helmut ends up, given how he's evolved over the years) to be in here somewhere, but I did get Enchantress and Black Tarantula, which is enough to hold me off for now.

[reverie]

Well I'm more of a DC guy so I'm not too familiar with many of them from comics, but I assume their character is coming through in some interesting designs. Also, it's nice how they bump the criminals and mutants (plus a thief, undead, etc.) and link the Mutants to Criminals and to some other factions (Typhoid Mary, Gorgon.)

Cool to see The Wrecking Crew finally come out. I guess you guys finally gave up on waiting for a new Piledriver figure, eh? I like the bonding power they got.

Soul Swap seems like it could be fun. Pyrokinesis could be nasty. A number of tough villains, really. Including Executioner and Gorgon, with potential 10 dice attacks (or 11 for Executioner with height.)

There's also a number of characters that look like they'll be popping all around the battlefield, like Whirlwind, Batroc and Living Laser - and it's kind of cool how much intangibility and similar abilities show up. Purple Man is slick - I like Pheremone Control.

Tiger Shark will look great on one of my blue, yodajunkie bases. I wish I had Stilt Man.

So what's next month, a bunch of DC Heroes?

(I'm not actually crying for next month, yet - still enjoying this release)

Zemo will be sooner rather than later ... but those are both very relative terms.

Thanks for the awesome review! Next month is Hellfire's territory, but you're right that we should make sure to enjoy this one first.

Wave 17 has been added to the HCS!
That might come in handy for adding the missing Synergies in the Books.

Oh, and after looking at the cards a bit, I really have to say I love how the Wrecking Crew work together. I find Stilt-Man's Special Powers really cool - I'm definately going to play him soon!

Awesome release as always!

Looking forward to hearing all the battle reports!

I liked Stilt Man a ton. I was really impressed with his power set.

The only problem I have is with Enchantress, her powers have lots of potential to become OP. If I can get Zsasz with 2 tally markers on him, within 4 spaces of Enchantress, he can get a triple 4 attack with double skulls (essentially triple and that seems a bit weird to me. I like the design, it just breaks the theme on some figures (but maybe it's just me)

[IAmBatman]

But the theme is that these characters are magically enhanced well beyond their normal abilities! I'm not seeing the theme break at all.

Unless you mean that putting Zsasz and Enchantress in the same army is thematically weird.

The combo I keep thinking about is her with a wounded Wolverine on height...
