Ya, that guy's pretty awesome.  He's got a few pieces that I'm sure will show up on my cards.

What program are you using? I'm currently seeking help for what sets I've made thus far & a few gentlemen on this forum were kind enough to piece together what I did but I would like to create my own stuff. I was recommended "GIMP" for free but it had a malware attached, guess I went to a false site or something... But I want to create cards & set up to print. Any suggestions on program?

I've got an old copy of Photoshop 7 that I've had for years.  It does everything I need it to.  You might be able to find a used copy of it for pretty cheap as it's more than a decade old.  Runs perfectly fine on my Windows 8 laptop.

Adobe Premiere Pro for free is an amazing deal. wow.

But seriously guys, why would anyone ever buy these programs? just get them from a torrent site and save yourself like the 500 dollars they charge for the newest version of photoshop. I understand the company makes a great product, and deserves their money, but I just let the large businesses that need these programs pay Adobe's bills for them. The person who just wants to use it at home to do some fun stuff not looking to make a profit from it shouldnt feel bad getting it for free.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll look into it & hopefully be sharing cards of my own in a week or so.

I don't know about that 7 Intellect.

I love what you're doing with names vs. identities, so shouldn't the text of "Corporate Magnate" refer to "Norman Osborn" rather than "Green Goblin"? Really more an attribute of the person and not the persona.

I don't know about that 7 Intellect.

From Wikipedia:
QuoteIn addition to these physical advantages, the serum also greatly enhanced Norman's already-above average intellect, making him a bona fide genius capable of making breakthroughs in advanced areas of genetics, robotics, engineering, physics and applied chemistry.

Every other bio of his that I've read says something similar.  And that fact that Marvel's been pushing him as their version of Lex Luthor so heavily in recent years all spells a 7 Intellect to me.

That card is only playable by Norman, not just any Green Goblin.  But you're right, I might just remove the Goblin name entirely, so it could be played by Norman as Iron Patriot, or even in his civilian identity if I choose to make such a variant down the line.  I've done the same for a couple of Henry Pym's cards which you'll see, since he has so many superhero identities.

I strongly favor the 7 Intellect.  He's certainly a smarter cookie than, say, Kingpin.  While I don't see him to be as smart as Luthor, I am very comfortable with him being on a par with Tony Stark for Intellect.  Very similar intellect-wise, though the difference in personalities takes them in totally different directions.
I'm not sure Spidey would win in a one-on-one with the cards you gave them, but hey, the bad guys often get away, right?
