Today's review is Cosmic Boy from Legion of Super Heroes
It’s LoSH remakes week here on pojo!
He is one of the big three of the LoSH…that’s all I know.
The old one was an overpriced Jean Grey with flight and
wildcard…will the new one be any better?
He is Experienced, 70 points, 6 range 1 target, 6 clicks of
life, a flier, and a LoSH

Speed:
Nothing….oh boy…that’s a bad start
Attack: Not bad values, but weird dropoff at the
end. It skips from 9 right to 7? Who is this Typhoid Mary?
Defense: Average numbers, but TK + Willpower is a
cool combo
Damage: 2’s that drops to 1’s with leadership…yeah
The Good: Tk and Willpower
Wildcard
Leadership might come in handy
The Bad:
No Movement
Low damage
Overcosted support piece
6 range is very limiting
Feats: Don’t bother with him…but telekinetic reach
could come in handy
Overall: Yup, not much of an improvement here. I
could barely even call him a remake. Lets put it this
way…if you have no movement powers, your going to get above
a 2 out of me. Add on the fact that he does very low
damage, and his only assets are the wildcard team, TK, and
decent attack numbers. If you are going to have a TK piece
that isn’t going to attack, then use Red Tornado or Aleta.
There is really no point in using him except for LoSH
teams. The wildcard team gives him an extra half point.
Constructed/Unrestricted: 1.5 / 5
Sealed/Draft: N?A / 5
Overall: 1.5 / 5
“Heroclix….they’re cool, addictive, and available….the
things practically sell themselves.”
