Good ideas for new Characters

[anarky]

The Bum-Toucher. A villain who does nothing really harmful, but just sneaks up behind folks (regardless of age, creed, color, gender, sexual orientation, etc, etc) and grabs their asses for no reason. Truly a foe to strike fear into James "Logan" Howlett's veins.

Or DJ Gangsta-X, the living embodiment of all the corny stereotypes rapped about by gangsta rappers. Oh, and he has the power to turn women into backup dancers.

[mabudon]

I like bumtoucher (anything to do with bum-looking?) and DJ gangsta X (favourite quote "Word!!") is a GREAT idea.... he's like the updated, "now" version of the "supablind" book...
Would DJGX yell out "Gimme mad bitches" to activate his back-up dancer powers??

How bout a vertigo style, hard boiled paranormal detective style guy named "Magnetic North"..... just a nome, now, but with some hard work he could be the next "Who the fuck CARES?!?" character of our time

[jjreason]

Magnetic North would be a great name for the book, but we'll need to develop that hard boiled dick's moniker a little. Im envisioning NYPD Blue meets North of 60 - you're man is the only travelling major crimes man in the north district of F Division (Saskatchewan) and thus is drawn to the magnetic north of the world to sort out which Native capped his cousin on the res this week. That would be kick ass.

Great story for magnetic north... (and I think Peter North would be a fun name,sorta, and he's both a babe magnet AND he's innately attracted to clues)

Pete goes up into the tundra right near the time of the midnight sun to question some old hermit... he goes into the hut where the hermit lives (after a couple of days driving across wasteland) and confronts him... turns out there's someone else in the hermit's place, who jumps north and knocks him out....

When he comes to, he's alone, and his valuables have been stolen, watch included(see where this is going??)

When he opens the door and looks across the tundra, there's no truck and no trail..... then he remembers the midnight sun and looks up at it... high noon, with no way to judge direction thanks to the theft of his watch.... so it becomes man vs. himself, and the viewer is treated to a weeks worth of delerious flashbacks..... the episode ends as the sun FINALLY sets in the west, and Peter puts on his scarf and starts the long walk back, the crunch of the snow showing his persistence and determination....
Pretty dry, huh?? CBC will take it, I'm sure, I'll write a French guy in just to cinch it

[jjreason]

Sounds good, but with a name like Peter North, he's going to have to bust at least one huge nut all over some hot native girl with huge fake breasts that will take in the back door. He could "encounter" her just before he gets to the hermit, I guess. No sense investigating anything with high ball pressure. It's the silent killer.

i say to Vyn that a new comic book hereo should be the <font color="red">Adventures of Tina X!!! </font id="red"> she can be a bi polar nutcase that has crazy curly hair and is just simply crazy. Her nemisis could be Emporor Daddy Pants that and is out for blood. although his vision is obsured by a formor war wound and Tina X and cardboard boxes look alike!!!

Good one Rollo!!!

How bout "The Shape"?? he uses shapes to do things.... pretty DC, eh??

And what about Jurasso, has he been used yet???

Isn't the "Shape" an actual member of the Squadron Supreme? Or am I thinking of someone else?

The Bum-Toucher. A villain who does nothing really harmful, but just sneaks up behind folks (regardless of age, creed, color, gender, sexual orientation, etc, etc) and grabs their asses for no reason. Truly a foe to strike fear into James "Logan" Howlett's veins.

"Beware! The BumToucher!!"

[The Phantom ManAss]

"Beware! The BumToucher!!"

You bet'cher ass!

[Rollo Tomassi]

The Honey Badger. Only because I keep hearing about it being the deadliest animal in all of Asia.

Also, I think it would be hilarious if the High Evolutionary mutated a wolverine (like he does with many other animals) and that wolverine became a super hero and called himself 'Logan'.

[anarky]

Remus

Because if Marvel is going to do something as fucktarded as Romulus, an evolved canine who's been manipulating Wolverine and others for thousands of years, may as well one-up them.

Remus has been manipulating his brother Romulus for millennia. He is a mastermind, and one of his biggest trump cards is a photo of his brother sucking a wolf's teat. One of the several thousands of time travelers in the Marvel Universe accidentally left a camera behind, and Remus took a picture of his brother, devoted more than eighty years to building a photo lab from primitive equipment. Usually, he was able to control Romulus through more subtle means but, when he wasn't, he merely walked behind Romulus and whispered, "Wolf titties," which brought Romulus into line.

Remus is a manipulative genius like his brother (and even moreso, since he spends his time manipulating Romulus), but is not evil. He just has a really twisted sense of humor. He waited for millennia for "The One," the subject of Romulus' manipulations who would defeat him by making him perform Justin Bieber songs in front of millions. Wolverine was The One. Unfortunately, the one thing Remus never counted on was that Wolverine did not share his silly sense of humor.

Remus at first appears as a follow-up to Romulus, always dressed in a straw hat and accompanied by his bioengineered cybernetic avian friend, Mr. Bluebird, and usually with his henchmen, the bumbling Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear. He loves to distract people by telling them about the past exploits of Fox and Bear.

However, it turns out he's just sort of sick of the "manipulative genius" game and he decides to become Wolverine's sidekick (a la Gary in Jack of Fables). However, the two almost immediately encounter Albert and Elsie-Dee, and Remus decides to become Albert's sidekick instead, since Albert is a robot and robots are way cooler than mutants. This being the first time anyone has ever rejected him because someone else was cooler, Wolverine slinks away to drown his sorrows. He gets so drunk that he attempts suicide by jumping off the Empire State Building. Only he lands on his head, causing him once again to forget everything about his past and making him awesome again.

So Remus served a purpose after all: rescuing Wolverine from his suck.

[Rollo Tomassi]

You know, now that Disney owns Marvel, that's an entirely plausible character to have show up in the comics, straw hat and all.

[anarky]

Even if they didn't, most of Disney's characters up through the last decade or so are public domain. Sure, you have to make Mulan or Uncle Remus or Snow White look different from their version, and "Beauty" can't be named "Belle," but there's a lot of leeway there. Mark Buckingham wouldn't have any work if that weren't the case.
