	Of the four costumed adventurers to appear in Dragon magazine ads for V&V, who was the best and why? Note that the Shatterman from the ads is slightly different from the version of the character found in the V&V comic book.

	Magnetor, loved the costume, and the Magnetic control device really captured the flavor of V&V to me.

	I like Skyhawk but it reminds me too much of one of the old helos the navy use to use. Magnetor just sounds cool

	Skyhawk because his costume is better than the rest. It has decent flow to it and can be easily drawn from virtually any position. You can easily see his expressions and his mask has a way cool design for close ups. Including the scale/feathers. Ability-wise (aerial artillery) he is the most powerful and his background is nice. One of Dee's best designs ever! Visually I'd pick Kali next... Magnetor is nice and has great powers... Plus like someone said, he does rep everything great about villains and vigilantes. Especially inventing. Ugh... Shatter man is... Well... I like his mask. That's it. So yeah... Skyhawk.

	I went with Skyhawk simply because he looked so cool. Until a few months ago I had never used any of these characters. I just finally used the first one (Kali) in a recent adventure, but before that I'd never used a single one.

Speaking of the Dragon magazine ads, everyone knows you can get them here, right? https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/vnvrpg/files

	Skyhawk gets my vote. That ad was what originally brought the game to my attention. Plus the character was cool.

	I used Kali as an agent of Intercrime and for of Vortex and Imperial. Shatter man was only vaguely used and I tended to forget about him... Imagine my surprise when he was used for the v&v comic... ICK! But... Detective 27 used him. So he couldn't have been too bad... I guess. lol Magnetor I used as a reserve member of Royal Guard. He only appeared twice. During Devil's Domain and the third attack by DrA, helping the PC Titan after DrA had stranded him in the Arctic. Skyhawk was used and a but, usually in conjunction with one of the heroes in solo play on the west coast. As both he and Unicorn were in San Francisco.... It was the ad of Skyhawk that brought me to V&V

	Magnetor was the first image of V&V that I can recall. RAMBLE

	I only used Kali as a belated love interest for my character Thunderbolt... mostly because at the time I made him V&V material was very hard to come by.. plus it seemed kinda neat to do the Batman/Cat Woman twist to a character's love relationship..lols!
