Ed's Notes: Corporate Superheroes?  Seems like a risky investment. Also... I know it's a cliche with the female Superheroes and the skimpy outfits, but seriously?! There is no situation in which that costume is even remotely appropriate, socially OR meterologically speaking. Somewhere in Gotham, there's a stripper looking to lend her a pair of pants and a tee-shirt. How can you go outside in THAT and still have the "uncertainty" drawback?!  Maybe she'd have more confidence if she'd finished getting dressed that morning?!

Ed's Notes: Corporate Superheroes?  Seems like a risky investment. Personally I think the ability to turn yourself into a giant, acidic, poisonous cloud would be a power more suited to VILLAINY, but whatev.

Ed's Notes: Corporate Superheroes?  Seems like a risky investment.  Also... MAXI-MAN? Are you fucking kidding me right now?! (Must... resist... urge to make... numerous crude jokes...) Oh fuck it:  Maxi-Man?  I hope his costume doesn't have any PADS in it!  It looks like a job for Maxi-Man?! If it doesn't involve cleaning up spilled menstrual blood, then I assure you: It isn't!  OMFG. Maxi-man. I swear, as a GM, I would award 10 hero points, on the spot, every time a PC managed to pull off saying "This looks a job for MAXI-MAN!" sincerely, in appropriate context and without laughing. OMG. He even LOOKS  like a corporate mascot for feminine hygiene products! (Granted, one created by DUMB MEN, but still!)

Ed's Notes: Brother of Vibe. Corporate Superheroes?  Seems like a risky investment.  Is "Area Knowledge (Detroit)" REALLY an "Advantage?" (Kidding: I'm from the greater Detroit area.) Also... I know and work with  a lot of Latinos, and "Ramone" is not a Latin surname, as far as I know. (Ramon is a very common FIRST name, of course, but I'm calling Cultural Representation FAIL on DC here. lol)

Ed's Notes: Corporate Superheroes?  Seems like a risky investment.  And oh, Gypsy, how far have you fallen? You touched the greatness of the JLA (although I lump her in with the JLI) and now your with the Conglomerate?! Oy. And should "Area Knowledge (DETROIT)" really be considered an "Advantage"? (Joking: I live in the greater Detroit area.) ;) Also... Is "Cindy Reynolds" even remotely a Roma surname?  I'm calling Cultural Approriation on "Gypsy" here, bordering on racism. Representation FAIL, DC!)

JL Sourcebook came out a few years prior, so it gives her:

Drawback: Age (Young, 15)
