During HeroClix's year-long dirtnap, many of the coveted chase pieces because affordable for the first time as panicky (or fatigued) collectors sold off their collections. So now that some more of you have these ultra-rare figures, what say you to a series of Clix of the Day reviews?

We'll start with the game's first true chase pieces, the Marvel zombies from the Supernova set of late 2006! We covered the lame (literally) zombie Spider-Man and the brained (literally) Colonel America already. Now there's...

WOLVERINE

50 points

Team: none

Keywords: Monster

Range:  0

DIAL & CARD:

http://www.continuumedia.com/clix_cave/tb2/Unit.cfm?UnitID=sp222&UnitVersion=1&KeyDisplay=1

STRENGTHS:

Excellent AV with Blades/Claws/Fangs and Willpower makes for a good start for the zombie berserker. But push at will to get even better fighting ability with click #2's Charge+Steal Energy+Combat Reflexes combo. Even down the dial, BCF and Willpower keep him going.

WEAKNESSES:

His speed stats absolutely tank mid-dial. Worse, his AV dives to a last-click low of 7. Having no Charge to start is a problem, too...he's likely to get sniped through his soft defenses before getting to fight.

CARDS TO CONSIDER:

PROTECTED, then, is probably better for him than most.

IN SUM:

For only 50 points, he's not that bad. 3 of 5. 

Next we'll look at Hulk! Is he the strongest one there is?
