4. Rookie Raven (Icons #028)
Range: 8
Starting clicks of Barrier: 2
54 points
Her life as a Barrier-builder is brief, but she makes the list as the queen of support figures. She starts with Probability Control, giving her great use on any team, and can Barrier-push directly into her post-Barrier role as the team healer (and a self-healing one if necessary thanks to the Titans TA and Regeneration). All this utility for just 54 points is a great bargain that makes the Rookie the prize over her otherwise just-as-useful EV versions.

 

3. Rookie Aleta (Supernova #043)
Range: 8
Starting clicks of Barrier: 3
51 points

Portable (not being a flyer like E Aleta) and self-mobile (thanks to L/C), Rookie Aleta offers a double dose of support abilities in Barrier and two clicks of TK. Her post-Barrier AV is fair at best, but an increase in damage potential can make her quite the clean-up figure — and for just barely over 50 points. Adding the Guardians of the Galaxy ATA keeps her from being Outwitted, and Defenders TA can keep her from being an easy KO (IF she hasn’t hurled all her pals away with TK). She drops from number one because Barrier is really her secondary role and stiffer competition has arrived.
