The Book of Captain Marvel Jr.
The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Freddy Freeman) C3G DC WAVE 52 CURTAIN CALL Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Crisis set. Its model number and name are #050 / Captain Marvel Jr.. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - While spending time with his grandfather, young Freddy Freeman was injured in a fight between Captain Marvel and his nemesis Captain Nazi. While his grandfather died in the collateral of the conflict, Freddy was injured, crippled for life due to a spine injury. Soon after, Captain Marvel took Freddy to the Rock of Eternity, where he was blessed with the powers of the one who saved him. New powers in hand, Freddy initially sought revenge against Captain Nazi, only for Mary Marvel to talk him down. Various interpersonal conflicts (including his affection for Mary) led to Freddy taking some time away from the Marvel Family, leading him to the Titans and eventually the Outsiders. When Billy had to step up and take over the role of the Wizard Shazam, Freddy was in line to take the mantle of Captain Marvel, eventually joining the Justice League as well. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
NAME = CAPTAIN MARVEL JR.
SECRET IDENTITY = FREDDY FREEMAN SPECIES = HUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = TITAN PERSONALITY = BRASH SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 7 MOVE = 7 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 5 DEFENSE = 6 POINTS = 300 SHAZAM!: SOLOMON'S WISE COUNSEL When a Unique Hero you control is destroyed by an enemy figure, you may immediately place any unrevealed Order Markers on any of your Army Cards on this card. For the remainder of the round, after revealing a numbered Order Marker on this card and taking a turn with Captain Marvel Jr., you may immediately choose and take a turn with another figure with a Shazam! Special Power you control. HEALING OF APOLLO Once per game, after winning initiative, if there is at least one Order Marker on this card, you may remove up to 3 Wound Markers from this card. ZEUS'S LIGHTNING SPECIAL ATTACK Range 1 + Special. Attack 5 You may subtract one from this attack to either attack one additional time or add 4 to the range. SPEED OF MERCURY Captain Marvel Jr. is never attacked when leaving an engagement. If an enemy figure targets Captain Marvel Jr. for any special power, you may immediately move him up to 3 spaces, or up to 4 spaces if that figure has the Magical Defense special power. SUPER STRENGTH FLYING

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
I think a few have said they have the mini here, and I do as well. Others are welcome to put it up if I don't get around to it first. This is where we landed after LCW, and I'm feeling really good about the direction, sans concerns about coming up shy of 310. That is 100% the dead-on target to make a round 1000 with the other two Marvels. I could see ticking up the life healing from Apollo and his defense if necessary.
Its a lot of text, but I have checked that it is shorter than some of our longest, so more looking to tick down text-wise rather than up. |

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
For Solomon and Mercury, when does the movement happen? Immediately when they choose him or after they use the power? And SAs are technically special powers, should he get to move after being targeted for those?

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
The intent is immediately when chosen, to potentially avoid the ability.

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
If he's Captain Marvel Jr. can we rename Mary to officially be Mary Marvel? That's always bothered me!
If we're not putting together all six letters, I don't think we should feel obligated to ape Mary's "just the names of the gods" power style. Like, I'd call the first one "SPEED OF MERCURY" and the second one "HEALING OF APOLLO" and take after the original design more. Not quite sure about LIEUTENANT MARVEL as a power name for a "here's what happens when he's NOT hanging out with the Marvel Family" either. If we're looking to tick down I'd trim the Magical Defense stuff from his speed power, and maybe just pick Titan or Interloper, which lets us streamline that first power a lot.

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
Mary was officially called Captain Marvel when she got the power of SHAZAM, sir.
Maybe MARVELOUS ALLY for the first power? I'd like to keep Titan and Interloper both around here. I like the overall direction. I think points have got to be close to where you want them. Points, defense, and the amount you heal with the Apollo power are things you could tweak to hone in on 310. As is the calculator estimates anywhere from high 200s to mid 300s, so I think you're in the right range. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
Yeah, in the 90s... before and after that she was Mary Marvel! She's spent more time being officially named Lady Shazam than she has Captain Marvel! (I might just do a Golden Age version at some point, actually, when she had goddesses instead of gods and no "shared power" stuff.)

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
I do like swapping the names to be more in line with Billy, so long as that doesn't give us too much text.
I like keeping both classes here, as lets be honest, nobody is gonna do a Titans specific or Interloper specific version as well. Will there be a Freddy II? Yeah probably if they ever give me Eugene, Pedro, and Darla I'll be right on that. I do want to keep the Magical Defense callout as long as possible to keep that similar aesthetic with the other two, but Ill live if we have to lose it in the end. I'd almost lose the free disengage on it first. |

Re: The Book of Captain Marvel Jr. (Breathing Period)
Maybe drop the OM requirement from his healing? As a once per game thing that already needs you to win initiative that's probably not a balance issue.
You can trim a little text by giving him blanket disengage and moving that to the front of his Mercury power. Probably not too imbalancing? JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!
