@...Puulaahi: Ah, yes, they must have one million levels! or meet some other frustrated, post-pubescent metric that states the worth of a character is measured in how much destruction they can cause.

I haven’t read the core books, but Secret Invasion is alright; it would be like an alien invasion (finally) done right with the exception that the heroes will inevitably win in the end. They’ve apparently been working on it for a while and do a pretty good job of establishing an atmosphere of mistrust and heroes against all odds(despite said inevitable outcome). But then, I just read The Initiative.
