Issue 16 Live
Posted on October 23, 2009
The excitement is palpable among heroes and villains alike. Issue 16: Power Spectrum is now available across Paragon City and the Rogue Isles for all to make heroic (or villainous) use of! With this much-anticipated update, players can use the all new character creator and customize most of their powers by selecting themes or changing the colors and animations of specific powers.
Whether you feel the need to match your hero’s powers with their bright outfit or want your villain’s powers to look even more nefarious, the palette is yours!
But that is far from being all that Issue 16 has to offer.

Sharing the Wealth at HeroCon.
Posted on October 22, 2009

Some bling to hand out at HeroCon. Chocolate IOs!
We’re getting ready to head out for HeroCon soon and it’s sure to be a great load of fun. The family is dressing up in our greens for the costume contest and thought it would only be appropriate if we had a little swag to share with the people.
So, we’ve dipped into the inventory at Wentworth’s Consignment House and will be handing out Rare IOs in the first ever mass purple drop! There will be plenty to go around and you can sell them or eat them. Personally, I find them quite tasty.
