Moreau Files 2 (ICONS)

This “Second Dispatch” adds two new characters to the Vigilance Press super-powered universe.

The Rukh bears some similarity to a cross between Ra’s al-Ghul’s personality and the Vulture’s power set. As an activist who works against both corrupt elements within his own country’s government and against U.S. interests, he presents some interest possibilities for forcing morally ambiguous decisions on superheroic PCs.

The Eyes of Medusa is an international terrorist organization run by Madame Medusa, who inherited the mantle of leadership from her mother. The product includes writeups for Madame Medusa herself and for Eyes of Medusa mooks. The difference in motivations between the original and current Madames Medusa—which I won’t spoil here—makes for an interesting twist.

Like its predecessor in the Moreau-1 Files series, however, this product is marred by extremely poor proofreading. The front cover and page headers refer (properly) to the high-flying Qameristanian activist as the “Rukh,” but the detailed write-up consistently spells his super-moniker as “Ruhk,” except for one obvious but uncorrected typo, “Ruhlk.” Even the product description page spells his name three ways: “Rukh,” “Ruhk,” and “Ruhl.” Madame Medusa’s personal name is spelled inconsistently as “Evelynn” or “Eveyln.” A variety of less noticeable grammatical errors pepper the product. Errors like this really shouldn’t slip by in a product so short. This could easily be a four-star product, maybe even rating five stars, if not for such sloppy production.

if you're nostalgic for the days of the Marvel universe when Hydra was not the instigator of World War II, then you'll like this product.
