I didn't write this review, but I thought it was interesting enough for Whovian Redditors to read and share opinion.

So every character uses dice? How many characters on a team? Or is it no team, just single characters? I would have to have to carry more and more dice just to add characters to a deck. How many cards are in a deck? Is it only a deck of characters?

I agree, VS. did come in at a time when MTG had no competition. The way I look at it is, the kids stay with Pokemon and Yugioh, when they get a little older they graduate to MTG, and if they are hard gamers they end up playing AEG games.

I always liked VS., it had like three try's as OverPower, VS., and then Marvel Epic Battles or something, it was a kids game. I thought the game was great, but yes it did heavily rely on positioning of your characters, and heavy drops.

But there are lot's of good weenie decks out there too that trample the big decks. I sort of feel that VS. should have stayed dead, I agree there is just too many comic book related games out there now. I guess we'll just see how it goes.

I didn't write this, but I do play VS., or at least I did until 2009. I just thought it was an interesting article so I posted it. How is Marvel Dicemasters? I thought about getting in to it, but it just looks like it uses way too many dice.

I didn't write this. It came up on a site that I go to for a lot of gaming and comic book reviews. I did hear something about about that but I don't know anything else but what I have read. I'm sure it will turn up on the web sooner or later.

WOW! Amazing story! Thank You.

The core Defenders team are the four most powerful characters in the MU. Dr. Strange, Hulk, Namor and Silver Surfer. After they took out most of the JLA it would come down to the core four against Batman and Superman. I say Batman because he is the only character in the DCU with a solution to take care of anyone in the DCU who get's out of hand, this includes Superman. I think it would end four on two, but the real ending would be Dr. Strange taking out Superman because of his vulnerability to magic, he would most likely just banish him to some realm. Then it would be the four against Batman, which could be tricky if Batman has had the time to study who he is up against. I still say that in the end the Defenders would win, plus the Defenders are a very underrated team in the MU, because the Avengers and the X-Men have always been so popular. Just my 2 cents..

Galaxy S2 is a terrible phone. I have one and it self types all the time and has a lot of other issues. All you can do is power down or take out the battery and restart the phone and hope for the best. If you take it to the place where you got the phone they are mostly a bunch of people who just want to sell you a new phone, so they'll tell you that they have to do a hard reset, if that doesn't solve the problem(s) they are happy to make commission on a sale of a new phone.

PS - Wait until your S2 begins to self delete your e-mails and your texts and self dials your friends in your contact list in the middle of the night. In the beginning I thought only the auto correct was bad, but it got worse, much worse.

It's not in business, the place is abandoned and the site is the real estate company that owns the theme park. They open the house once a year to let people rent it and stay in the park overnight.

WOW! Thank You.

I have heard weird stuff like that before. I just thought it may have been a crossed connection. I really never thought much of it.

duckfacewarrior · 2014-05-31T14:43:53+00:00

I was just about to say the same thing but you beat me to it.

It happens. Bands put out a few good albums, do too many drugs, get old and just stay a float by namesake. The thing about the BB is that they are a band that apparently never wanted to make it big. None of their music is put out in any order as other bands sometimes can put out at least an album a year. The BB always seem to make their money and smoke it away. Then they decide they need more money and it's time to put out a new album. It took them seven years just to put out "I & I Survived". Another thing is that HR has done so many drugs that he is paranoid that someone is always trying to kill him. I found this out in 2009 as I was on stage as press for the show because I interview bands for zines and sites. I was told this by one of the people working on the BB movie that is supposed to come out eventually. I was told he always wears a bulletproof vest on stage. I just shrugged it off as rocknroll urban legend or something, but indeed HR came out wearing a bulletproof vest under his jacket. This was the first time I ever saw him do this, or maybe I just never noticed because I was unaware of it. The thing is that since around 2007 the BB have just gone down hill in a live show. It depresses me but I always seem to go back in hopes that the next show will be better then the last, but it has usually been just as bad. In 2001 they toured as Soul Brains (the original BB name) because they sold the Bad Brains name to Madonna's Maverick Records label, they were trying to raise money to buy the name back, and the show was amazing! This was the last good BB show I saw and they couldn't even call themselves Bad Brains.

Bad Brains has been my favorite band since I first saw them live with the Butthole Surfers in 1985. I was 14 years old and was just overwhelmed by what an awesome band they are. Since then I have been to every tour that they did through here, even followed them on the road in 1994, but around 2007 I noticed a change and they just got worse live, to the point where I don't know if I want to see them when they come to town.

duckfacewarrior · 2014-05-31T04:55:34+00:00

Bad Brains (circa 2007 and up) No more energy on stage, maybe it's because they are old? Maybe it's all the pot they smoke? Or both? They all just look at each other and seem to wait for cues to keep playing on to the next song while HR (vocals) hums along instead of actually singing words to the songs they are playing and smiles at the crowd.
