My pick could come any time now, so it's time to put up my title card:

Here's another version, with Beautiful Dreamer's astral form blurred:

While working on the Hybrid draft, I found this little gem on the web: http://www1.flamingtext.com/All-Logos

It makes cool logos, like all the kids with the time and patience to learn Photoshop can do.

Like this one, for example.

(But I'm not bitter)

Copycat - Madeline Pryor as a robot.  Frankensteined together from a Moondragon and Indigo (who has nicely artificial-looking hair)

And thus endeth the micros.  I'm probably not going to do the bad guys.  I MIGHT put together a title card with a whole team portrait, but I don't know.

David G.

It's likely my next pick will go live while I'm at work today, so I'm taking the awful risk of putting up my micro now (actually 2 micros).

I present Monet St. Croix-- Shiva

 

Presented in Astral form and life-support wheelchair form.

And as a bonus, here's a picture of Binary, just because.

Here's Ororo Munroe (Storm, of the X-men) as The Mighty Isis.

This turned out to be a pretty common idea.  Another drafter already had a Storm/Isis micro hero I could have borrowed.  But I'm fond of mine.

Okay, now Katar Hol is rocking the speedo.  He needed to be rocking the speedo.  He also has a sufficiently ostentatious helmet.  I'm much happier with this one.  And it only took an hour of painstaking pixel-by-pixel editing of four different micros.

These two aren't modified at all - just two straight microheroes I'm borrowing to represent a couple of my upcoming picks.

Falcon: King Katar Hol of the Aerie, Emperor of the Savage Land


(Who is basically just Hawkman.  I kinda wanted to put one together with one of his more... unfortunate... costumes and a different helmet, but it was a big pain in the ass.  I may try again tomorrow, though.)

and...

Johnny Thunder, AKA John Henry Irons




I really wish I could have found a better Zzzax to use - one that showed how big he is.  But this one will do.  My version of John Henry Irons was transformed into a nuclear plasma monster when his experimental ARC reactor blew up.  Now he wanders the world, hunted by the military, and tries to do some good while searching for a cure.  If I were a better person, I'd make a micro of him in human form as well.

I present Ulysses Bloodwynd:



"I have had it with these Motherf-cking Shuggoth on this Motherf-cking astral plane!"

I really shouldn't be comic book drafting.  I have a novel to write.  But I love these so.  Over on RPG.net we're running a Hybrid Universe draft, and it's been incredibly awesome.  You can follow it HERE

I'll post stuff lost to pickageddon here, and as I frequently do I'll use my blog as an image host.  Here's my first round draft pick: Jor-El the Air-Walker
