Diversions, in versions.

I'm working on something to do as a little diversion beginning Januaryish, and I'm looking for some input on the process. You see, I've got a vast and mostly unwarranted affection for Palladium's Heroes Unlimited game. Recently (okay, at DragonCon), I acquired a well-loved (i.e. battered and annotated) rulebook for same. And I'm thinking, let's do some hero gaming.
( It is a cunning plan )

The tone of the game is pretty tongue-in-cheek. I'm thinking of something with a near-future feel, with some weirdnesses in the setting to account for all of the different possible hero types the system allows for (which include aliens, robots, mutants, magic users, superspies, and so on). If this sounds like fun to anybody local, drop me a comment and I'll add you to my contact list for when the games start. Also, I'm currently working on building my setting, so if you have thoughts about what sorts of things would be in the ideal genre-bending comic book city, feel free to drop those here too.

Also, I thought I had a superhero icon, but I don't! V is the best I can do, and he's a Discworld joke. If I'm going to run this thing, I'm going to need a new icon.

EDIT: Possibly In:
triadruid, agrnmn, kittenpants, 8elements, capriciouslass
