The Book of Professor Zoom
The Book of Professor Zoom C3G MARVEL WAVE 5 WORLD'S VILEST The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Arkham Asylum set. _________________________________________________________________Its model number and name are #036 / Zoom. Character Bio - "Eobard Thawne started out as a fan of the Flash. After gaining super-speed by replicating the electrochemical bath that gave Barry Allen his powers — even undergoing surgery to make himself look like Barry — he traveled backward in time to meet his hero using the cosmic treadmill. However, after arriving in the past after Barry's death, Thawne became mentally unstable upon discovering he is destined to become a villain, his mind- already disoriented by the stress of time travel — seeking escape by convincing himself that he is Barry Allen. However, his true nature is eventually revealed due to his more violent nature, "Barry" attacking Central City in 'revenge' for 'forgetting him', until he is ultimately defeated by the Flash family and sent back to the future, his memory wiped of the incident. Even though Thawne retained no memories of his trip through time, he was now left with a deep and bitter hatred of Barry Allen. This was due to feeling "betrayed" by Barry. Thawne began travelling back in time to battle the Flash to get revenge on him, using his knowledge of "history" to his advantage." _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
NAME = PROFESSOR ZOOM
SECRET IDENTITY = EOBARD THAWNE SPECIES = METAHUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = PSYCHOPATH PERSONALITY = OBSESSIVE SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 12 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 5 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 250 SUPERSPEED Professor Zoom may move through all figures, never takes leaving engagement attacks, and does not have to stop his movement when entering water spaces. After taking a turn with Professor Zoom, if he did not use his Negative Speed Force Special Attack this turn, he may move up to an additional 4 spaces. NEGATIVE SPEED FORCE SPECIAL ATTACK Range 1. Attack 2. Instead of moving and attacking normally with Professor Zoom, you may move Professor Zoom up to 8 spaces. Every time Professor Zoom engages one or more opponent's figures during this move, you may choose one of those figures to attack. You may continue attacking with Professor Zoom in this manner each time Professor Zoom engages a figure. Opponents' figures without the Superspeed or Speed Force special power roll 1 fewer defense die against Negative Speed Force Special Attack. SPEED DODGE 4 When Professor Zoom defends against an attack and you roll at least one blank, Professor Zoom takes no damage and may immediately move up to 4 spaces. Original Post:
Spoiler Alert!

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
PHASE FISTS
Android figures roll 2 fewer defense dice when defending against Professor Zoom's normal attack. All other figures roll 2 fewer defense dice. Hunh? Personally I don't need to see any Android synergy here. I mean Zoom doesn't hurt Android's worse, and he certainly isn't more merciful either way. If anything, Phase fists shouldn't work on figures with the Super Speed special power, but I wouldn't want to go that way either, as he should be somewhat of a counter/challenge to Flash. How about something that allows him to hold a human hostage and possibly auto kill them if they try to take a turn. I bring up this theme because he seems to do that a lot in the comics and force Wally in to some sticky situations where he is afraid to attack Zoom or Zoom may kill the hostage. |

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
Also, does he need a special attack so that Super Speed can reference it like on Barry's card, or do we need to change the Super Speed title here, as the two texts are currently different?

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
I'm with Griff here, 2-3 fewer for all figures no discrimination. He's pretty much just another Flash so no issues with anything else there currently.

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
I think it is a theme break honestly, because of what I said already; his powers don't actually hurt Android more, and he isn't merciful either way. I don't think it is important to me either way for Shadow Cat and Zoom to have the same power, besides, I would imagine that Shadow Cat "iconicly" hurts Androids more due to a morality thing of holding back a bit against sentient life forms, which is again, a moral trait that Zoom does not share.

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
OK ... it might be tough to think of different names for the powers, but I'll change this to a straight up -2 defense.

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
OK, here's my question - is this guy interesting enough right now? I know he's highly similar to Flash, but I really think the first and third power just belong on here so much ... it does make him feel a bit in the same mold as Flash, though. What are people's thoughts on this and is replacing the special attack with Phase Fists enough of a difference?

Re: The Book of Professor Zoom - Design Phase
I would like for us all to have an extra round of Brainstorming here on what that power should be, because right now, it is a tad boring and I would rather have something with some SHOCK value. You dig?
