With Great Power...

With Great Power... by Incarnadine Press costs $20 US ($12 US for the PDF).  It is an attempt, and a successful one, at capturing the style and rhythm and melodrama of the Silver Age comics.  Yes, the characters have an array of special abilities and powers, but that's not the game's focus.  The focus is on the characters and the choices they make and the dilemmas they face.  Of course that also means that you don't have to worry about point-balancing your guy who can throw portable miniatuarized suns at his opponents with the guy who wears a bat-mask and has a utility belt full of boomerangs and shark-repellant spray.  No more making your mighty hero afraid of spiders, dyslexic, gassy, paraplegic and allergic to shellfish in order to pay for your mega-blast attack, either.  Also, no more wondering how you're going to keep your players interested in yet another evil plot to launch the heroes' base into the depths of space.

Now this sounds like it combines two of my favourite things, role-playing and comics! I like the sound of how the system works and how it seems like it allows you to be fairly creative with the powers you have without having to get bogged down in a points system, great review mate, I look forward to hearing about what its like to actually play

No. What you have are bullets and the hope that when your guns are empty I'm no longer standing, because if I am, you'll all be dead before you've reloaded.
