News and latest profiles
Black Lightning
This covers Black Lightning from 1977 (his debut) to the early 1980s, using only data from this era. Olympic champ, legendary teacher and electrically-powered street vigilante. This profile is the first in a series, see details within.
Sunbeam crew
The setting and ensemble characters from On a Sunbeam, a 2018 sci-fi romance/coming of age graphic novel. Intriguing space setting — in space — and attaching cast.
La Louve (the She-Wolf)
Full-on profile for an original French super-heroine. Part of a series about a superhuman law enforcement unit, with oft-strange powers.
Black Lightning
Part of our series about Black Lightning (Jefferson Pierce), covering the 1980s. The series starts with Black Lightning (Profile 1 – Year One, original take).
Shields for RPGs and other stories
This covers all sorts of fighting shields, from small hardwood stuff to wheeled ballistic SWAT contraptions to force shields. The rules stuff was in the previous half, so it’s more a not-that-technical presentation of what exists.
Shields in the DC Heroes RPG
You’d rather come back with your shield than on it ? Then you totally need this extensive article about wielding shields in the DC Heroes RPG. This entry is the first half, mostly about DCH rules material.
Nuria la brujita
A young witch once seen in Northwestern Mexico, with spells of grief, water and wind.
Le Bedeau (the Sexton)
Part of our series presenting original, complex French super-heroes to help super-populate super-Europe.
Artemis
Our first profile for Artemis Crock, daughter of the Huntress and Sportsmaster, back when she was an Infinity, Inc. foe. Ruthless crossbow-toting teenaged markswoman.
Night-Owl
A criminal mastermind with darkness technology. He fought Superman and Lois Lane in 1942. Those were the days, my friend.

Blizzard
Second part of this profile, more or less covering the New Thunderbolts era. The series starts with Blizzard II (1987-2004).
Sacrifice
A young super-heroine from Wakanda, with budding mutant magic. She was a Player Character in an early 1990s MSH campaign, because I like being 25 years early to the party.
Vivian Vision
Second half, but also third third, of our Vivian Vision character profile. The series starts with this article.
Family Man
An original superhuman from France, with a strange and specialised power. He grows nightmare nemeses from made-up futures.
Maverick
Second part of our extensive character profile for Marvel Comics’ Maverick. He has a lot of equipment, so that doesn’t help with article length. The series starts with Maverick (Christoph Nord) part #1.
Nikos Aegeus
An obscure Wonder Woman foe of the early 1980s, with divine weaponry.
Belle Taine
From our Spring of 2015 character creation contest. A young super-heroine with a big heart and wielding magical artefacts from Celtic myth. Extensive, well-written background story.
Maverick
A Marvel spy/commando/assassin type with mutant powers, heavy hardware and decades of experience.
Blizzard

K’ (K Dash)
King of Fighters bad boy and super-martial-artist with cloned flame powers.
Ténébrax
A goofy, pulps-style underground villain. From a 1964/65 French comics serial. Master of a rats-crewed, drugs-pushing subway empire.
Epsilon Red
An intriguing ex-Soviet altered cosmonaut. Psionics. This profile is best read after the Elena Ivanovna character profile.
Amazing Grace
A mind influencer from Apokolips. Useful evil manipulator type.
