#4 Superman (Superman Fast Forces 001)

Deciding between number 4 spot and the number 3 spot was quite a chore. Ultimately, when I considered all factors number 4 went to FFSM001 Superman. 200 points is a lot in a standard match, and yet this Superman feels worth it. With his range of 8, Superman team ability, Probability Control, Super Senses, and Running Shot; he stands a very good chance of landing the alpha strike.

This version’s combat values are also impressive he starts strong and finishes strong. His overabundance of keywords gives players a lot of options to work with to find the right blend of support.

Why he’s #4

The lack of indomitable on a 200 point character is a bit troubling. Sure he has a special power that includes Willpower and even picks up standard Willpower late dial, but tis not the same as Indomitable. Super Strength is also spattered in such a way that Big-blue may not get a chance to use it, this keeps his damage output on the low side considering some of the others on this list. Arctic breath is a nice touch, but it only shoes up on a couple of clix and is a situational power at best. There is nothing terrible about this choice, nevertheless the top 3 spots simply outclasses him.

From Wikipedia: Superman first appeared in Action Comics #1 (June 1938) and subsequently appeared in various radio serials, television programs, films, newspaper strips, and video games. With the success of his adventures, Superman helped to create the superhero genre and establish its primacy within the American comic book.
