From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe
Hi. My name is Mike. And I'm a comic book nerd.
(Hi, Mike!)
When I first heard about City Of Heroes, I was like OMG NO WAI. Honestly this game is tailor made for me. I'm an aspiring comic book artist, with ideas out the yinyang, and CoH gives me a forum to express these ideas. Honestly I could play this game forever...until DC Universe Online comes out...and then you'll never see my ass again. :P
UPDATE: (February 2009) Hey. Soooo...um...I uninstalled CoH/V. Yeah. Seems real life is kicking my ass as of late, no time for another virtual life. That doesn't mean I'm out of ideas! In fact, I have an interesting new take on Michael Holiday. Perhaps I'll return some day. Who knows? In the mean time...Champions Online...and DCUO look promising. Oh well. Catch ya all later!!!

Characters
Michael Holiday The wise-crackin' street smart occult detective that became my first successful RP character. COMPLETE!
Electrode The first level 50 I've ever had. Did all his leveling on the Infinity server. A golden-age character, Electrode is in retirement, and I bring him out whenever the need arises.COMPLETE!
Combat Clown Psychotic clown with a messed up background. CC is everybody's second favorite clown.COMPLETE!
Every-man My true Virtue main. A Batman homage, Every-man kicks some serious ass. COMPLETE!...
Argus Brute My attempt at villiany, though I'm no good writing the bad guy. Think the Hulk meets Marv from Sin City. COMPLETE-ISH! (what?)
Robo-Guardsman A new-ish character, my attempt at playing a super smart armored hero. IN-PROGRESS...
Characters That I've Made, and Re-made, and Re-made, etc. etc.
The Red Guardsman: My Superman/Captain America tribute. Golden age hero at it's most pure, I could never get him to work in CoH as tankers are hard to play for me.
The Gentleman Blade: A legacy hero, a swordsman with an emphasis on chivalry. Think Green Arrow meets Zorro. Originally a broadsword/reflexes scrapper, I made him a DB/Willpower scrapper. Maybe he'll see the light of day sometime.
The Meteor: Teenage superspeedster, empowered by cosmic energy from a meteorite. Major influence is Bart Allen from his Impulse days. A sprinkle of Green Lantern thrown in. Couldn't decide if he'd be a scrapper or a tanker, added to the fact that I think I'm too old to play a teenage hero anymore! *sigh*
Mystical Melinda: Magical hero with power over the four basic elements. Earth, Wind, Fire, Water. I suck with defenders or controllers, and I'm uncomfortable playing a female character. I doubt she'll ever see the light of day.
Characters I Want To Make, Focused On This Type
- Heroic fun-loving speedster, a la The Flash.
- Heroic bad ass archer, a la Green Arrow.
- Villianous world-conqueror, a la Doctor Doom. Perhaps, Dr. Inferno lurks in the shadows? :P

Favorite Pages
I enjoy pressing the random page button a lot on this site. You find some interesting articles. Others...not so much. However, these are the pages that I seriously enjoyed, and some that made me laugh out loud. And some are just pages of ingame friends.
High Jinks: Everything this guy touches turns to gold. It's ridiculous. Just click here, and then click...I dunno...ANYWHERE.
Holy Shit NINJAS: I've never laughed so hard at a concept in my life.
Lunar Lad: Really cool teen hero in the vein of Robin and Speedy and all of them. I love golden age heroes.
Blood Wolf: I love the character concept, and the fact that he's based off a TV show I've never heard of.
Obsolete: Villianous 1950's atomic powered robo-maid? PERFECT.
Sentinels United HQ: I'd kill to be in a group with a base like this. So Justice League-y, I love it.
Quinton Vance: Sick page design. Awesome Punisher-type character.
Guerrilla Gorilla: NO. EFFING. WAY.
More to come...
