Long time since the last one, I know… but hey, life.

In this mid-sized batch:

  • The following entries have received improvements to their art: Danny the street, Demise, Johnny Quick (CSA, post-Crisis version), Owlman, Power Ring II (CSA), Superwoman (CSA), Yeoman, Double Dragon, Golden Boy (Wildcards), Alexander Luthor (post-Crisis) and Ultraman. Tao Pai Pai and the Legion Elseworld version of Vai have also received illustrations, which they previously missed.
  • Absorbancy Boy, an obscure rejected LSH applicant who could replicate superpowers
  • Auron II, a clone of Jim Harper with cosmic powers who left Earth to explore the DC Universe
  • Big Ben, an obscure but classic Power Man/Luke Cage character
  • Continuing our Black Widow serialized writeup, we now reach the 1970s — the era during which she was wearing the dark blue jumpsuit with yellow bracers and belt. During much of that era, she was Daredevil’s partner
  • Bloody D.I.C.E.S., a PC from one of Kal El’s campaigns
  • Cocamama, from a GURPS Wild Cards adventure
  • Diamondhead, a classic Nova enemy
  • Doctor Lansing, a mad scientist and foe of the Champions of LA who had an army of super-bums
  • Doctor Tannenbaum, allegedly the greatest opponent of the Great Lakes Avengers. X-Men. Whatever.
  • Trevor Fitzroy, the Chronomancer, a decadent enemy of the X-Men (and Bishop in particular)
  • Continuing our cycle of Acolytes of Magneto, this batch includes Gargouille
  • Johnny Quick from the CSA — but this time it’s the pre-Crisis version
  • The seventh Manhunter. In case you lost count (I won’t blame you), that one was Chase Lawler, possessed by the Wild Huntsman and bad Image Comics
  • The third Mirror Master joins our collection of Flash’s Rogue Gallery writeups
  • Nova — the Human Rocket ! This is an entry for the classic era of Richard Rider, covering his late 1970s book in its first volume.
  • Completing our fairly large collection of Supergirl writeups — this one is the Peter David version, aka the Earth Angel
  • Our Venom writeup has, at long last, joined WORG after being stuck in limbo for way too long. This is the Eddie Brock version.
  • Zorr — the first opponent of Nova — who is a super-tough space ravager.
  • The following entries have been completely re-researched, re-statted, rewritten and re-illustrated since they did not match modern quality standards:
    • Bengal, a martial artist from the Marvel Universe
    • Blackout, the psychopathic vampire and monstrous serial killer. Due to the amount of material, this one is split between a pre-resurrection and post-resurrection versions
    • Blue Blaze, a somewhat creepy Golden Age hero from Timely/Marvel
    • Devos the Devastator, a genocidal madman from space armed to the teeth, and Fantastic Four foe
    • The Grappler, an early and somewhat lame She-Hulk opponent.
    • Midnight, the adoptive brother of Shang-Chi and his match at kung fu, has also been entirely redone — both as Midnight I and as a the mute cyborg clone who fought the Silver Surfer for the Kree – Midnight Sun
    • Nicholas Scratch, a slightly minor but interesting malevolent mystic mastermind from the Marvel Universe. A good opponent in many campaigns.
