    Want to play a super hero RPG, but have no one around to game with, well Avalon is here

    to save you from your boredom. Yep its here at lasts, a solo system for

    playing a comic book super hero RPG.

    Everything you need is supplied, the rules for running the game, battle tiles to fight the

    super brawls on, exciting adventures and encounters, hard choices to make which can

    effect the future of your hero. Its all here, the arch-foes, the helpless old lady caught in a

    bank robbery, aliens and monsters, super villains and more.

    Comic Book Adventures uses Avalons popular Heroes Wear Masks RPG as the base for

    the system, which in turn is based on Pathfinder, so if you are familiar with that great RPG

    game engine then you are already to go. If you have yet to play Pathfinder or

    Heroes Wear Masks, then here is your opportunity to jump in.

    So get ready, sew your costume, grab your cape and power up your energy beams, the city

    is in need of a hero and you must answer the call.

    Comic Book Adventures comes with all you need to get started, the core book offers all the

    rules needed to play, the charts need to discover your adventures and a Mini-Mission book

    full of pre-made adventures and encounters. The system also comes with a record sheet,

    over 40 full color battle tiles and much, much more.

    In this preview we will look at the chase system used in the game. No super hero game

    would be complete without a death defying chase through the city

    roof tops or down a car filled street.

    While the system is geared toward using Avalons Heroes Wear Masks, you can, with a bit

    of tinkering, use just about any RPG system, so if you want you can play using your

    favorite super hero RPG and have just as much fun.

    Even if you dont use the system as a solo game, there is all sort of great stuff you can use

    in your standard group based super hero game. So invest in your gaming future and pick

    up a copy of Comic Book Adventures and soar high into the sky.
