Again, I'm going to have the stress the importance of getting some of the bigger names filled. These games do not last when the marque characters are NPCs. That much is clear from the spate of unsuccessful comic book games that we've had in this section. I [i]want[/i] this game to last so that we can write stories with some inkling of consequence. That means getting the big guns filled out.

So if you're thinking about applying for a tertiary character I would suggest you look again at a big name. If only out of self interest. When the Luthors, Dooms, Thors, Captain Americas are filled out it gives a game more staying power and without that staying power there'll nowhere to write the stories you want to with quirky side characters.
