Thanks guys! Glad you like the new profiles. I've got another update on deck, but I'm out of town and probably won't get it out before New Years...soon though!

Bard, I had the exact same thought about the toad being somewhat akin to the Lizard...the original comic appearance doesn't specify the origin of his appearance, but it seemed like a reasonable extrapolation, given the evidence.

Sorry dude, I actually posted the new characters on Monday, the 16th....I just forgot to mention it here.

The new characters are: Moon Girl, Miss Fury and the Magician from Mars....

Madam Fatal is probably the last character I will ever create a profile for. A "superhero" who dresses up as an old lady? Funny for sure, but I can think of more deserving heroes I'm shooting for characters that could fill out a classic superhero universe....

The next three characters will be villains who don't wear hats....

Great stuff as usual, Argosail. I noticed that the past few updates all have 3 characters... Has it just worked out that way, or 3 your magic posting number?

Yeah,Man,Keep Up The Good Work.
However,I Have Some Questions To Ask You:
1.Can You Please Add More Than 3 Characters To The Free Universe Site Every Time You Do An Update?
2.Will You Be Posting More Macro Templates And Acessories Soon?
3.Did You Complete Work On The Free Universe RPG Yet?
Sorry To Keep Bothering You Evil or Very Mad

Haha...actually, I just post 3 at a time to keep the rows even...and because it's a magical number.

Dude, I could post six at a time, but it would take me twice as long to do the updates. I think three keeps the updates at a good pace and makes them substantial enough to be worth checking out. Plus, I like coming up with themes for each set...

RPG still needs a lot of work....

I just don't really have time for work on the macros...I'm hoping someone else will expand on the set...

Hi,Argosail,Sorry To Bother You,But I Have Some Questions:
1.Which Three Characters Will Appear In The Next Update?
2.Which Characters Will Appear In The Free Universe Role-Playing Game?
3.Are You Working On Any More Role-Playing Games? pig

1. There will actually be 4 characters in the next update (coming very soon): 3 villains and 1 hero. All three villains are bald and badass....and none are currently on PDSH wiki, so they might be new to you. The hero is a rather forceful female.

2. The RPG is not specifically for the Free Universe, but a generic RPG system. There will be Golden Age supplements, likely featuring most of the characters on The Free Universe.

New character profiles on the Free Universe site: Dablo, Fang, Mako and Yankee Girl! I've also updated Blue Beetle, Fantomah, and a few other pages.

Dude, there is still a lot of work to be done on the RPG. I wouldn't expect to see anything until at least 2014. I haven't decided on the name, and I won't reveal it early, because i don't want anyone stealing it. It will likely be distributed first through RPG Drive Through, or a similar site.

Until my game is out, you might want to check out the game Supers! on RPG Drivethrough. It is rules light and features four cheap supplements with Golden Age PD characters like Black Terror, Fighting Yank, The Shield and more!

Great stuff as usual, Argosail! I especially like the tweaks you made to Yankee Girl's costume. I never really had a problem with her costume, but the lines were always rather reminiscent of Wonder Woman with a cape. Extending the leggings and having the boots "built in" really gives it a new vibe and balances it out a little more.

Speaking of "tweaks," did you do anything to Fang? I don't think I'd ever seen him before, but I was familiar with the name. It's such a cool name that I was expecting something visually more interesting than a bald guy in a leisure suit! I have to keep reminding myself that this was the norm for most GA villains!

Thanks Bard.

The Fang that battled Black Fury was , unfortunately, just a tall bald guy in a green business suit, like a lot of gangster characters of the time. I liked him because he actually had superhuman abilities. I tried to play off his name a little and update his look, by giving him snake skin boots and a snkeskin jacket. I don't know if that came off. I was trying to make him look like a sleazy assassin. However, I try not to redesign the characters entirely. I want them to look reasonably similar to their golden age counterparts.
