As with last year, we bid a fond farewell to Heroclixin’s favorites, a regretful sadness for pieces we passed over too often, and a hearty “Hey Hey Hey…GoodBYE” to stuff we hated seeing.

This Friday [which happens to be the webmaster’s birthday], Heroclixin’  will just list its old favorites that are retiring. It goes without saying that we’ll miss these:

 

capbucky

Captain America [Fear Itself 201]: Our favorite Cap in the game

 

clarkKentCavill

Clark Kent [Man of Steel 009]: A mainstay on the “plainclothes” theme

cloak
Cloak [Amazing Spider-Man 202]: DEFINITELY didn’t get run enough

DotD
Colleen Wing and Misty Knight [Amazing Spider-Man 044]: Ditto for this great but awkwardly priced duo

MysterioHAHAHA
Mysterio [ASM 026 and 206]: Was it all an ILLUSION?

 

Static_Shock_Vol_1_1_Textless

Static [Teen Titans 045]: Precision Strike took his playability right away

 

valkyrie

Valkyrie [Fear Itself 005]: Retiring just as a new Commander Rogers looks to show in Nick Fury. Poop

Vixen

Vixen (Streets of Gotham 028): Not likely to care about Animal themes in Modern without her

Next week, leading into July 1, we’ll say a few words on some non-favorites that we wish we’d gotten to know a little better. And we’ll celebrate those annoyances that we can’t WAIT to see gone from the Modern meta.
