Well, keep in mind that your 313-verse characters don't have to be exactly like their 616 counterparts. If there's a general theme that you like to your character, then you should emphasize that while creating the rest. Oh, this I know!

Oh please, for the love of all that is sacred, no giant anime swords. Marvel has enough white-haired pretty boys already.

Well, the big three I'm interested in are Adam Warlock, Black Bolt, and Drax the Destroyer. I've only submitted Drax so far...and he's turned out to be my favorite. Of course that would change if someone else is hedging their bets on another flying brick (Gladiator?); same goes for my take on Adam Warlock if someone else is playing a sorcerer...

I would really like to have A magic user in the mix here!
Your Drax CAD is great though.

And he's likely better than my Gladiator in WK's eyes (Big Blue Mohawk after all)~ I'm totally putting together an Adam Warlock (magic bent, as the old 90's Warlock Chronicles had him if memory serves).

90's = Cosmic Sorcerer Warlock.
Which made no sense. Sometimes he could magically spank major powers of the Marvel U, but Strange was able to lock him up in a tiny box without so much as a "by your leave"...

I saw Warlock as being very POWERFUL... but not very SKILLED in the magical arts (the whole Karmic Staff thing was supposed to help him channel his raw magical power to make up for that difficiency).
All in all, Strange is still the end all be all... and Marvel has time and again indicated that it's not JUST his own raw (and/or borrowed) power that makes him so. It's the SKILL behind it.
One of my favorite issues of Doc Strange from the 90's actually even says as much when he's duking it out with a MUCH more powerful Salome. It rocked.
Anyhow. Yeah. I'm REALLY liking the way my Adam Warlock is coming together. And it TOTALLY reflects what I just said above. He's got the juice for some serious mojo, but when it boils down to it~ Strange could spank him easily. The price I pay for paying stones for some abilities I can't find myself seeing Adam without... :-P

Rats. I was just about to post that I was going to submit a magic user... They'll be VERY different if you do. Trust me. I invested heavily in a PPH-like Action called Mastery of the Soul Gem... and to be honest, it's more flavorful than powerful. Ah well, it's in the spirit of the character I have the CAD wrapped. I'll type up the bio/history tonight... for now I have to take the wife out for Dinner and a Movie.

PPh must mean Phoenix Force. I think I understand. Enjoy your date!!!

WK do the pitches you have cover the realm of Magic User? He hasn't seed the Adam Warlock yet... But he has an MoM of 6, a MT of 3 (plus int bonus), and a Cosmic Sorcery action of 3 with 'tricks/spells' outside the box/norm. Most of his stones were spent on the Mastery of the Soul Stone at AN 6 (basically covers what the wikia description has, by reflavoring PPH as mentioned using Wikia listed abilities as a guideline). Powerful, but not. :-)

I'm going to assume that most of those awful typos are because you guys are posting from phones, or something...
<g>
I have no magical chars in my inbox, as of yet. Just Drax, and a Silver Surfer badly in need of alterations.
