AoA is easily, by far and away, my favorite arc! I have all 4 of the TPB books and i've read them half a dozen times, at least!

Yours and mine both! Its certainly one of the arcs that I always go back and read countless times. So many great characters came out of it -- Nate Grey, AOA Blink, Dark Beast, AOA Sabretooth (would have made a great OP variant), and Holocaust, among others.

Big Bad Harve was the name they gave to Harvey Dent's darker side before he became Two-Face in Batman: The Animated Series.

I decided it was kind of catchy, so I adopted it. ;)

That's interesting to know. I was always wondering how you came up with your forum name.

Ranerdar

Ranerdar was the name of my first Everquest character. I kept clicking "get random name" and that's what finally came up. I've since used it as the first character in all the MMOs I used to play.

As for the avatar, I've always been a fan of non-super superheroes and Green Arrow was my favorite.
I'm polymerized tree sap and you're an inorganic adhesive, so whatever verbal projectile you launch in my direction is reflected off of me, returns on its original trajectory and adheres to you.

CoS

CoS- abbreviation for Champion of Solaris. In the battletech world Solaris is the "arena" world were mech pilots battle for $$$ an honor. In the CCG by WotC the pilot Kai- Champion of Solaris, automatically "wins initiative" in any battle he is in, adds 4 damage to his Mech AND deals two additional damage to each unit in opposition to him in the battle. My favorite card in the game. - my Avatar is my photo taken by the newspaper covering one of my homicide trials from 2008.

Sweet.

Hot Rod

Hot Rod because I like building hot rods!

I think the avatar .gif is a blown hemi on alchy in a rail.  I'm not 100% sure on this because I ninja'd it off a dude on the bullet (thanks random dude on YB!).

a_noble_kaz

a_noble_kaz is just a play on words for the character Kazuya Mishima from the tekken series. i actually stole it from one of my brothers (who is a tekken guru) sigs from tekkenzaibatsu.com which was "dedicated to the kaz" because kazuya is very difficult to use effectively in tekken but very fun if used correctly. i was so impressed, both with his sig and his tekken skills, that i stole the idea for a screenname and started using kazuya in tekken 5!

Every time I see your username I hear Rupert Thorne reading Harvey's psych file in his snide, condescending voice.

My username is from when I was a kid I really liked Cecil's character in Final Fantasy 4 and how he became a paladin, but that word was way too common to be able to get as a username so I used the old latin form of the word.  My profile pic, which I just added recently but have used on other sites, is Dark Claw from the amalgam universe.  I really liked the amalgam comics and especially Dark Claw and his nemesis the Hyena.

I love FFIV. I'm playing through it again right now (the PS3 does some interesting things with the Chronicles version, but it works). It's probably my favorite of the whole series.

Dark Claw was cool! I really enjoyed those Amalgam comics.  :)

I suppose that includes me :P

My username is a word I made up that supposed to mean "one who uses metaphor." I originally made it as an emcee name when I used to rap a lot, and I ended up just using it everywhere on the web. Though I still write and freestyle occasionally, I'm ironically known by another name altogether in the local hiphop scene, so metaphist just became my web handle.

Jack

To elaborate on my name, I used to be known as 'webheadwiz' on Battle.net in my Diablo days. This is obviously a shortened form of Web-Headed Wizard, I liked the cool art on the promo. I truncated it to Web, or known mostly as weB on a gaming forum. I can't remember why I liked having the last character capitalized, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. I was also OverPower on Battle.Net as well...

After I quit Diablo, I decided to drop the name altogether and got into web development. I couldn't think of a good domain name to buy so I simply bought jacktruong.org and decided that I wanted to take pride in my name and kept it as my online alias. As such, I'm either Jack where ever I can be and JackTruong/JackT as a backup.

Did you kick any phat freestyle rhymez about da overpower scene, emmcee metaphism? I'de love to hear some of your art.

DaGreatNameless

Much like Metaphist my names based off my rap name. Back when I started making music The hardest thing to me was naming myself cause it just feels lame to name yourself so I decided I'd be NameLEss. Then one day one of my friends was making fun of me and was like owww the great Nameless. So I started going by NameLEss The Great.
As for My Avator Its a cropped version of the last supper that I photoshopped my self over jesus in.
