ABOUT MICRO-HEROES:

I've been making micro-heroes since the early days. You can find my site and a sample of my work at - Bobster's Micro-heroes

You can see more work by a variety of micro-hero creators at - The Official Microhero and Pixelhero Archive!

And you can join your Yahoo! group and show off your own work at - Lilguyz - The Micro-heroes Yahoo! Group

Amend your favorite characters list by placing MODOK first, or die...painfully.
