I played CoH before they introduced CoV. I played a long time ago. You used to have to get to level 20 to go on a "cape mission" to earn a cape. I had done that with my first iteration of Brother Mercy (the guy in the faceless mask), earned my cape, and never got a chance to play again.
Fast forward to a handful of years ago, rediscovered it when it was free to play, managed to make a couple toons, level them okay, then it went away. Again.
So now it's back (thank you all for making this possible), I've started back up again, trying to recreate some of my favorite characters (and a new one here and there). Bear-Wolf seems to be my current fave with Felix Valentin, Gentleman Adventurer close behind. They also happen to be my favorite looking characters (and in the same order) in the game. All are based on comic book and/or short story characters I created, even have a couple books for sale on Amazon if anyone is interested.
