I love the HeroClix boxed sets. Whether it's the DC Giants set or the hard-to-find Green Lantern Corps, I think the boxed set is simply a great way to appeal to your core comic book fan. As nice as it is though, I wish we had more, so maybe Wizkids will head my call and bring some fresh new boxed sets! Let's look at the 22 we really need...
22. The Endless
We kick off the top of the list with the Endless from the DC Vertigo universe. The Sandman, Death, Lucifer -- all these beings were told by the master bard, Neil Gaiman. The only problem? They're endless. Really now, how do you turn a immortal being into a HeroClix figure? Unfortunately you can't, which is why the Endless is at 21... but I can always Dream... (see what I did there?)
21. Watchmen
Sure the movie is a snore-fest and the trade paperback is most overrated piece of comic book literature ever made, but the fact is that most people love it and would be more than willing to pay big bucks for it. Maybe we could even get an Owlship out of it complete with flamethrower (Energy Explosion)! I suspect this kind of set would sell well enough, but I think Watchmen has already gotten way more press and praise than it deserves. There's only one question I have -- can a HeroClix figure be designed with removable pants?

20. West Coast Avengers
This could be a very tricky as it would contain mostly B-List Avengers, but that's what made the comic book so fun! We're looking at the following possibilities: Hawkeye, Mockingbird, Wonder Man, Tigra, Iron Man, Jim Rhodes as Iron Man, Henry Pym, Moon Knight, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Mantis, and a few others. The designers would need to make some interesting dials to make it sell, but I have faith in Wizkids.
My favorite issue is when the team was kidnapped by space aliens as part of a pre-invasion experiment. Much like the Incredibles Storyline, each member faced a giant robotic villain that got smarter each time it was beaten. Moon Knight was the last to fight, and tore it to shreds after realizing that he was on a planet surrounded by hundreds of moons... the source of his power!
