Hi, folks.

It's time for the return of "Name That Marvel"-style trivia action. My clues are probably awful and my choice of characters ranges from the horribly overexposed to the pointlessly obscure (with an emphasis on the latter, of course). So have fun!

--------

Rules:

Hints will be given out over the course of the day (only on this thread of course). The first person to guess the answer gets a point. If you guess the answer on the first clue, you get two points. Whoever scores the most points over the course of thirty games, wins. Each person may only answer one time per clue. If you have any questions, PM or e-mail me.

Clue #1: This character is human.

We only get two points if we get it on the first try with a clue like that?Well . . . I might go as high as three. Depending on degree of difficulty, of course.

Mutants are humans too. And he uses a bo-staff (technology albeit primitive).

Mutants are humans too.In a sense, yes. But for the purposes of this game, "human" is synonymous with "flatscan." I try to use the handbook's terminology, which distinguishes between human, mutant, mutate, cyborg, alien, and so on.

If that confused anybody, I'll try to make my "this character is a ______" clues more explicit in the future.
