31st of August, 2006

First update in a looong while – I’ve been busy, which has also delayed the near-completed overhaul of WORG for a few months. Roll call:

  • The Axeman, a kung fu assassin from the DCU with a so-called flying axe.
  • Black Tom Cassidy, a classic X-Men villain
  • Carapace, created by Kal El el Vigilante
  • La Dixieme (“the Tenth”), another quite unique and rather complicated NPC from Sebastien’s French gendarmerie stuff
  • Doctor Strange, because it was a shame that he’s been written up and still not published on WORG
  • The writeup for Echo has been reengineered ; among other improvements it now includes her appearance as Ronin
  • Fabian Cortez, a signature X-Men enemy from the 90s
  • The writeup for Fer de Lance, one of those delightful Serpent Society thugs, has been improved
  • The so-called Giant Green Mustachioed Android was a powerful android used by the Mandarin against Hulk a long time ago
  • A gnarth is a powerful predator sometimes used as an arena beast (it was seen in old Wonder Woman stories)
  • Hatchett, a murderous lumberjack from the DCU
  • Interesting notes about the Hellraiser continuity and universe, covering many things about Cenobites, the boxes, etc.
  • Jean Grey (aka Phoenix II, aka Marvel Girl) for the same reasons as Dr. Strange
  • Jeremiah Rainmaker, a NPC derived from a V&V character created by David
  • King Kong Bundy, a classic –and huge — American wrestler
  • Mister Roboto, inspired by a Styx song
  • The Runner, one of Marvel’s Elders of the Universe
  • Scrambler, another of the deadly Marauders killing mutants in the Marvel Universe
  • Sing, the man who trained with Bruce Lee and proved a match for Richard Dragon himself
  • The Sinister Samurai, another obscure Richard Dragon foe (we have a few in this batch)
  • Kara “Starbuck” Thrace, the heart of the new version of Battlestar Galactica
  • Superstar, inspired by a Styx song
  • Val and Earl McKee, the down-hone protagonists of the movie Tremors
  • Viper, the cowardly masters of toxins and poisons for the League of Assassins
  • The writeup for XS, of the post-reboot Legion of Super-Heroes, has been upgraded.

Headcount is now 2810.
