Although comics nowadays are much more well-known for their featuring heroes and villains of various ethnicities and backgrounds, this current diversity got its start in books like Blood Syndicate, proving that the original Milestone comics were truly ahead of their time. Other examples of sexual diversity in the line included Static’s best friend coming out as gay and a miniseries starring the vigilante Deathwish featuring a pre-transition transgender character. Fade and Masquerade both displayed the homophobia of the era, with these mentalities revealed to be forms of self-hate. This started as a fake trailer in Quentin Tarentino and Robert Rodriguez's joint project 'Grindhouse'. These characters were not defined by their ethnicity, nationality or sexuality, although these did inform their characterizations. This time, for the Event: Arms and Artifacts, I draw inspiration from another group of films from the grindhouse genera. In fact, the only Caucasian member of the Blood Syndicate was Boogieman, whose power allowed him to transform into a humanoid rat. Tech-9 was Puerto Rican and Brickhouse and Aquamaria were also ambiguously Latin, while Third Rail was Korean.
Likewise, Fade was gay, a secret which Masquerade kept after overhearing the revelation. Fade and his sister Flashback were Dominican, who are typically classified as Afro-Latino. Many of the Blood Syndicate’s members were black, Latino or mixed race, with Masquerade being Jamaican and Wise Son and Holocaust being African-American. I think that's about it, though, so I'm staying pretty close to your build and trying a lot of talents I'd never tried before when I played a sneaky shooter made out of paper.Įta: Oh, yeah, Wolverine is a loner, but I like the companions, so I've got someone with me most of the time.Masquerade was one of several diverse members of the Blood Syndicate and Milestone Comics in general, with Masquerade and other members of the team being multiple minorities.
I'm not playing on survivor either though, and Swan's weapon is pretty strong! Otherwise, I think I've mostly changed the order of what I took, depending on what I felt like I needed at the time, like taking a level of Lifegiver before I took Critical Banker. Talentwise, I dipped into Bloody Mess a bit earlier, rather than taking Moving Target, because I'm not personally likely to sprint during a fight. I'm level 32(?) now, so come to think of it, I may pick the knuckles up again to see how they feel. It just was too good to give up once I'd punched something with it. Well, I've been using the fist I picked up from Swan, so that feels like the biggest departure.
