Just a quick note, Dr. Dedman, is an actual Dr. 


Just out of curiosity, what is the doctors specialty?

Hello and howdy!

I am new and looking to make some friends.

I have not played V&V in years (don't ask, I'm not telling)

Thought I'd post up and say some salutations. 

As a little side note, Avatar and I went to high school together and played V&V.  I run another popular super hero system every other friday that he plays in.  I won't be so callous as to mention it's name.  But you only need d6's to play it....

'Nuff for now!  Enjoy true Believers!!! Shocked

Welcome Draconis,

Glad to have you here.
  

V&V character creation is too much fun.

We've all felt the pull of the Dark Side, and many succumb to its allure.  I've personally fallen off the wagon a time or two. Smiley  Besides, they've got some wickedly cool stuff.

Welcome!

Hey everybody!  Just poking my nose in to say "Hi"!  I picked up V&V back in 83 or so and it was my first non-TSR product.  I've fiddled with it off and on for lots of years and it's nice to find a forum dedictated to it!  I look forward to reading lots of cool stuff from all of you!

Hi, I haven't posted in a while. So long in fact that I didn't remember my login data. So I'm back (again). It's still me! Just with a new avatar ... and sort of new name!

Greetings, all!  I have been playing V&V since my youthful days of high school in 1983.  My friends and I played ourselves as characters in high school, and the campaign was set in our home town.  It was amazing how many supervillain attacks and galaxy-shaking events occurred in that quiet town!

'Masked Marvel' was my alter ego in the game. His main power was Transmutation (I thought Firestorm was cool at the time). He liked to do things like turn the bad guy's armor and weapons into cherry Jello. He also tried to turn a villain's costume into white phosphorus, but was overruled by my GM.  For some reason, he wouldn't let me turn oxygen into cyanide, either...

Anyway, glad to find a cool V&V board!

Hey, you gotta play what the GM runs.  Over the last few years, I've been in MSH, DC/MEGS, and even BESM (owch) superhero games.

Hey all!

I'm good friends with Marshal Strong, who recommended this site as a cool place to talk comics. I haven't played V&V since the early 80's, but I've been reading comics steadily since my uncle bought me Amazing Spider-Man #166 back in 1977...hence, my handle.

Originally from Long Island, NY but now living in Jacksonville, FL.

Hope to see you all around the boards!

Hey, John! Yes, I sure do remember you. Lots of good times back then before we all had to become responsible adults! It's cool that we still have our hobbies to keep us young at heart.

"Marshal Strong" told me this was a good place to rap about comics, movies, TV, and all that junk I love in addition to the V&V component. I've been participating for quite a while on "Blammo!", the Marvel Masterworks message boards, but I wasn't aware of your site until now.

Cool, glad to have you here.   Also glad you are still into comics. When are you coming back up to NY?



And the Pulp was our local comic book store.  Both  Marshal Strong and I ran the place at various points.

Not sure about when I'll be back to NY.

I was thinking about going up there for one of the big comic cons one of these years, since Marshal Strong comes down here every year to go to Orlando Megacon with me! We also have a pact that if Megadeth ever tours by themselves, I would come up to NY and we would go together.

The only family I have left on LI is my brother and his family in Huntington. Other than that, everyone in my family has bugged out.

Cool,  my wife and I go to comic con every year since we've been married, its kind of "our thing".    Let us know if you are coming down,  or is it up?


and by the way, that issue of Spiderman, with Stegron, I stole it from my cousin when he showed it to me when we were kids.  I still have it.

Woe was the kid back then that had a comic that I didn't have.  I told him about it years later and he didn't even remember.    Its all mine now  BOYIEEE!

Welcome to the boards, Stegron! I've always had a soft spot for the Stegron character but then again I'm a bit of a Dinosaur nut. Wink

Hi, my name's WreckingBall...and I'm an addict.

Glad I found my way here, I was cleaning off a bookshelf earlier tonight, found a copy of the 2E rules in like-new condition and hopped on the web to see what else was still around.

Lo and behold I find an enclave of like-minded supers!

Hi. I saw the Monkey House tag under the logo. Is it kosher to post about the classic modules B.M.H. (Before Monkey House).

I read about people getting chewed out for saying they wanted to get products that weren't published by Monkey House on some forums or having their posts deleted. I didn't want to get called a traitor or a snark. What are the rules here?

Basically John's rules are thus -- say what you want.  But be warned you may get some backlash from some people (mostly just people having little temper tantrums..LOL).  It's just the nature of the beast.  You won't be deleted or have your posts deleted either. 

His biggest thing is we are all adults (well the high majority here are) and unless you use personal information to insult a person, everything is fine.  Smiley

Enjoy the board Ultra Malcolm!
