Heroclixin’s photographic record of Super-Strength characters who can hold their own object tokens continues! Today we’re looking at our first candidate from the new Captain America set, LUKE CAGE, Power Man!

 

Note that you have to wedge it under his arm from behind, or it won’t work.

Although this really ought to be your go-to Luke Cage for any game you ever wanna use the character in from now on, there might be instances when you may wish to field the other versions: LUKE CAGE from Avengers, POWER MAN & IRON FIST from Secret Invasion and POWER MAN from Fantastic Forces:

All three hold tokens fairly easily, though the FF one does so even more tenuously than it looks here.

Be back Thursday for another edition of Token Totin’!

This is a new feature (replacing “My Custom Mods”) in which I talk a bit on how I selected artwork for feats and battlefield conditions that didn’t come with art, originally.

See, back in the early days of feats, both Marvel and DC cards bore art from the comics:

But ever since Icons, DC cards have been bare. That’s apparently because DC has a different license for reusing comic art that makes it more expensive compared with Marvel. Therefore, we’ve not seen actual art on DC cards.

Well, I decided years ago to, as a hobby, add artwork to scans of all the then-extant cards. The project languished for most of those years until, in a whirlwind of scanning and Google-mining, I completed it sometime last year and added the results to the Pix and Downloads page of Heroclixin’.

Enough intro. On with the feature!

Although I hate using this BFC, one that only hurts and rarely helps, the classic image from the classic 1988 Joker story “The Killing Joke” by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland was the obvious choice for this mad, mad card.
