The Generic Bat....

[Paragon Avenger]

When the Increbidle Hulk got hit with the bat, they sent me an email allowing me to rename him.
Also, they messed-up his costume, I set it back to the way it was before.
Although I did give him blue instead of purple pants.

During AP33, I rerolled him up on Freedom and got him in one of the instances.
A developer commented that I liked the costume designer.  I figured, hey the game's gone only a couple weeks let, who cares.

I had one that really should have gotten generic'd to blazes.

I came up with an idea for a character homage to YellowJacket named Pym Particle. The really bizarre part of this is my concept had my hero as some shlub working as a janitor and stole some Pym particles.

In my defense, when I quit collecting Avengers, there was no Scott "Clubber" Lang.

fortunately for me, I couldn't get an outfit I liked for him and killed him off before long... now my Wasp ripoff was pretty spot on (Rad/Nrg fender). :)

Ah, I made a yellowjacket homage, too.  But, after getting everything set, I went back and re-imagined everything to black and turquoise, changed his powerset to fire/energy and made him the (fire-breathing) Dragonfly.  He's the only toon I ever made where I used one costume slot for his Secret civilian ID.  Made it full-sized and put him in a suit.  Then, made a key bind to fire off one of the change costume animations and switch to the tiny little Dragonfly costume...

Anybody ever get grief for an "homage" toon?  I had one guy give me a real hard time about my Booster Gold lookalike, including the line, "Why would you want to waste your time trying to look like *him*?"

Ah, now I'm wanting to hit Icon to try to recreate some of these homage toons.  I made a pretty spot-on Mr Miracle... but can't for the life of me remember how, now.   :o

Can't imagine why no one ever does Pym's 80s era red one-piece Gizmonics Institute jumpsuit.

I want to do a tribute to Danger Mouse, Mighty Mouse, and Speedy Gonzales, but the game doesn't let you do tiny mouse characters.
Of course if I did Danger Mouse, people would ask why is Pinky and The Brain wearing an eye-patch.

I always wanted to do an "homage" toon to all the various Flashes (Jay, Barry, Wally) but whatgood is a "speedster" in a game where *everybody* can have super-speed if they want it?

I had on one server all 12 free slots with Legion of Super Hero toons.

I never played them and only logged them in to the game so they would be saved.

I just did them to see how close I could make them to the comic book outfits. (turns out you could make some almost perfectly)

Also did the same for the JLA and JSA, one different servers.

[Paragon Avenger]

But any mouse characters?
I didn't think so.

If you did Mickey Mouse, Disney would probably buy NCSoft just to shut the game down.

I got it for a mastermind to on I named orichimaruu. I purposely my spelled it. I even explained that the name was misspelled and it was a part of Japanese culture lore. They still said too close to naruto
toon...

That's sad I never got genericed, I had:
-a Fire/Elec blaster "Sasuke Kun" since i1 or i2 in both original blue shirt and in all black
-I also had 2 different MA/SR "Rock Lees" the 1st I deleted out of boredom
-The Evil Shockwave nrg/nrg blaster which I created in i1 or i2 with side switching in mind before villains was officially announced lol
-"Ryo of Wildfire" brute eventually renamed as a precaution, has sub armor, full armor, and armor of inferno costumes

After that i got more creative with the names (most of which I won't be giving away hehe):

-the 2nd Rock Lee was a recreation that would eventually have both the all green original look, a combined 5 gates with chuunin vest costume, Mirai Trunks Costume and a Sagara Sanosuke costume(Kenshin)

-"Tough as a Trunk": SR/Will brute Optimus Prime eventually took a shot at the RID Scourge colors as way to play this toon in public

-a Post Skip Naruto and Yaruichi tribute using  Stalker powerset

-a Brute you would think this was a SF shoto tribute but instead I made him a Mirai Trunks tribute(The croatoa arc helped me complete the look with a broadsword and energy blast) would have really loved to try to Solo Jack in Irons with this toon and those temp powers. Snaptooth would have gotten REKT in 5 seconds

-scrapper who had costumes covering Amaterasu'd Raikage, 2 for Static, and MK Deception: Raiden

-Master Manipulator/Manipulative Swordsman/TheOneWhoWillStandInTheHeavens I flirted around with numerous names for this Ninja Blade/Ninjitsu Stalker with a penchant for confusing the senses

-I named all my Bot henchmen including Incarnate Pets after G1 Autobots(with 2 exceptions), the 3 car bros, the 2 ambulances, guess lol. Then there was Omega Supreme + Elita One(those red goodguys), and Nightblade + Jetfire(battlebots) as well as some clockwork but I don't remember the names i gave em

[Paragon Avenger]

I named a toon, Cheese Sandwhich and got banned from the game for life.
Luckily for me, that was the day before the announced shut-dwon so they waived their bannishment.

(just because it never happened doesn't make it untrue.)
