Ha ha ha ha, I don't have that much influence. I also have a huge bag full of minis just waiting to get a card.

It's a hybrid of Absorbing Man's movement power and Expert Climbing. I also bumped his range down by 1, but kept the rest of your stats and left box intact. Feel free to use what you like and ignore what you don't.

As for three powers versus two, I recommend settling for two here. Whenever you can nail a design in two powers (or even one!), go for it. If there's something else a design needs, for theme or mechanical reasons, don't be shy about throwing a third power on a card. But a third power should never be added just for the sake of having another one.

I was going to take a shot at actually making my own custom card. How many points do you think this guy should be? I'm going to go with @Ronin final design, I think it suits Rocket Racer well. I know he will not be official, but I want to try to make him playable with all the other cards.

Cool design (never heard of the character) always a fan of the underappreciated villains. I do think you could drop a lot of text from the first power, especially urge Quasi-expert climbing part (does it need to dro in effectiveness as he climbs higher?) looks fun though, he feels a lot like batroc.

Points: I wouldn't go over 100, maybe 80-90, since he only gets the auto skull once w/o a leaving engagement attack. Possibly as low as 60

First you need to decide whether or not you are going to make your own cards you should read this Post

Bio: (from Wiki)

Spoiler Alert!

Hoppy is a pink bunny rabbit who lives in the town of Funny Animalville, along with an assortment of other funny animal characters. As revealed in the origin story from Fawcett's Funny Animals #1, Hoppy is a fan of Captain Marvel. One day he decides to emulate his hero and speaks the magic word "Shazam!" Surprisingly, the magic word transforms Hoppy into Captain Marvel Bunny.

In Fawcett's Funny Animals #30 (July 1945), an explanation for Hoppy's powers is revealed. In the story "Hoppy Meets the Wizard Bunny", Hoppy is hit on the head and develops amnesia. The mysterious Wizard Bunny (or Bunny Wizard, both versions are used) is watching, and he flies down to help Hoppy regain his memory. A panel in this story states "Because it was he who bestowed the magic word and power upon Hoppy, the Bunny Wizard flies down to Earth to help Hoppy". Eventually the Wizard gets Hoppy to say "Shazam!" and his memory is restored, along with his abilities. This is the Bunny Wizard's only known appearance.

The word "Shazam!" has a slightly different meaning for Hoppy. According to the E. Nelson Bridwell scripted story, The Oz-Wonderland War #2, Captain Marvel Bunny has the wisdom of Salamander, the strength of Hogules, the stamina of Antlers, the power of Zebreus, the courage of Abalone, and the speed of Monkury.

Hoppy's stories occasionally feature his girlfriend Millie, who (like Lois Lane) despises the meek Hoppy but worships the heroic Captain Marvel Bunny. Millie has no idea that Hoppy could become the Marvel Bunny.

Another noteworthy foe appeared in Fawcett's Funny Animals #32 (Oct-Nov 1945). In the lead story of that issue, Hoppy faces Captain Black Bunny, who is based on Captain Marvel's foe Black Adam. Captain Black Bunny wears a black costume similar to Black Adam's, though the bad bunny wears a cape like Hoppy and instead of a lightning bolt he has a yellow flame on his chest. Captain Black Bunny comes from deep within the Earth's core and is aided by a gang of imps.

In Hoppy's first appearance in DC Comics (in DC Comics Presents #34), Hoppy and Millie find themselves magically transported to Earth-S, the home of the Marvel Family in the Pre-Crisis DC Universe. He aids the Marvel Family and Superman against Mr. Mind, Mr. Mxyzptlk, and King Kull. In this story both Hoppy and Millie were depicted as white bunnies, instead of their usual pink.

Hoppy appears in The Oz-Wonderland War #2, where he fights alongside Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew.

Thinking about a JLA/Avengers Campaign/Scenario and I thought of a couple of Glyphs...

Spear of Destiny - Mind Control

EQUIPMENT GLYPH
If this figure is not engaged, instead of attacking, you may choose one opponent's Unique Hero or up to three Common figures. Chosen figures must be within 8 clear sight spaces of this figure. For each chosen figure, roll the 20-sided die. After the 20-sided die is rolled for all chosen figures, for each figure that you rolled 13 or higher for, you may take temporary control of that figure and immediately take a turn with it. At the end of each turn, control of the chosen figure returns to the player who controlled the figure before the attack. All Order Markers that were on the chosen Hero's card will stay on the card.



the Book of Eternity

EQUIPMENT GLYPH
This figure gains the Magical Defense special power. When this figure is attacked by an opponent's figure that does not have the Magical Defense special power, the most wounds this figure can take for this attack is one.

The Orb of Ra

This one will have to wait until Metamorpho is done but it can work like Kryptonite for Metamorpho

the Psycho Pirate's Medusa Mask - Emotional Control...similar to Psycho-Man's control box power (possibly a direct ripoff).

Three of the Marvel six have already been done.

Here's what I had for the Spear (keeping in mind that it's The Spectre's one weakness as well):

THE SPEAR OF DESTINY

EQUIPMENT GLYPH
If the figure equipped with this glyph inflicts at least one wound with his normal attack on an opponent’s Unique Hero, you may take temporary control of that Hero and immediately take a turn with that Hero. At the end of the turn, control of the Hero returns to the player who previously controlled the Hero. All Order Markers that were on the chosen Hero’s card will stay on the card. Event Heroes cannot roll any defense dice when defending against an adjacent, normal attack from the figure equipped with this glyph. Figures with the Magical Defense special power are not affected by this glyph.

No love for Hoppy? Sometimes I wonder if anyone else can see my posts.

I had completely whiffed on the Spectre aspect. I like this.

I see them...I just usually have to go research the character first, as I usually don't know the ones you post , and forget to come back.

He might be referring to this crossover event (with the Anglam Universe I believe) :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JLA/Avengers. We have currently from the Marvel list of artifacts on that page: Cosmic Cube, Infinity Gauntlet, and the Casket of Infinite Winters.
