Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Hank Henshaw
Thanks, glad you like him. Designing a card for him reminded me how much ridiculous alliteration there is in Superman's cast of characters, what with Lex Luthor, Lois Lane, Lana Lang, Lori Lemaris and a bunch of others.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs
Made a revision to an old card of mine, Beast Boy:
My old version of the character squeezed all three versions onto one card because having three cards for a single unique hero seemed too out-of-the-box to me back then. It was a compromise I was never fully happy with because having three pictures and three hitzones on a unique hero's card was out-of-the-box in its own way. Since my goal with all of my customs, particularly my superhero customs, is to try to design them the way I think Hasbro might have if Marvelscape had continued, I decided separating Beast Boy's different forms into their own cards was actually the more orthodox solution.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs
Nice! I am looking at doing something similar when I start adapting my Unmatched minis for Heroscape.

Where's you get that cool T-Rex mini? Hope you'll bring it over here to The Game Palace some time!

The minis are a great scale for Heroscape and, while unpainted, have a very nice wash over them so they look quite nice. I'm planning to interpret the Unmatched designs (along with some of my own interpretations of the source material where appropriate) in the future. Right now I'm just working through Star Wars characters. Would love your feedback if you ever want to stop by my thread. -- More on-topic, why might someone decide to use Beast Boy rather than the T-Rex? It seems like you'd want to start in Bird form, get into position, and then switch to T-Rex form. I'm not sure why you'd switch into Beast Boy form after that--sure, you could do it because the card has 3-4 wounds on it and you'd like to benefit from Team Player, but putting an OM on Beast Boy just to switch him into Beast Boy form and make a single attack of 2 and get Team Player seems risky.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs
Nice, Unmatched sounds like a game I'd like if Heroscape didn't already fulfill my "cross-genre mishmash battle game" needs. Does it really count as a Restoration game, though? I thought they were all about updating old favorites while keeping the name intact. (I've only played two games from them, Downforce and Dark Tower, and I liked them both a lot. I bought a friend a copy of Fireball Island to play with his kids, but I haven't tried it myself.)
As for Beast Boy, yeah, one would probably stick to the animal forms in most situations, but I don't mind because if your whole schtick as a superhero is changing into animals, why would you ever fight in your normal form anyway? My old version didn't even have any powers in human form, so this revision actually has more incentive to use the human mini than the old one did. Maybe a risky play where he engages an opponent as a human at the end of a round, hoping for an initiative switch so that he can blast the opponent with Omnicron Snipers rolling three dice each Zetacron?

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs
It would be hard to keep the "Star Wars: Epic Duels" name intact without the Star Wars IP.
I don't know if it "counts" as a restoration game, but that's the name of the company. -- Good answer re: beast boy.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs
If you mean my old version of Beast Boy, yes and no. It was a one-power card, but the power was for him to change into his animal forms (which were the forms with powers), so the human mini served no real purpose outside of beginning the game in a start zone.
