Essence20: Power Rangers (or Transformers and/or GI Joe?)

Aside from being a shout-out to those of us who grew up in the '80s and '90s, I'd like to give the system a proper test. There's stuff I like and dislike about it on reading, but I'd like to see it in play. Prefer something like a Boom! Studios feel, maybe with a reboot of our own. I have specific character ideas I'd like to explore, if a GM would be interested. That is, I wanna be That Player—I want to play the Sixth Ranger, with a specific idea in mind. Please rMail me for more. Those comics are some of the best superhero media around and I'd really like to nail that vibe. Much like Archie's Sonic series, the Boom comics really get it when it comes to superheroes, so let's do that.

I'd also be interested in trying Transformers, preferably some kind of story akin to Fall of Cybertron, which was an amazing game. There's a lot of great imagery there, but if we do something set on Earth, even a crossover with GI Joe (or a crossover with some kind of alien race elsewhere in the universe) would be fine.

Let's go back to some Saturday morning action!

I love the BOOM comic series; it does just about everything right. I am very much in the same boat. I would love to see the system on either side of the table. This is the first call to action I've seen on the many sites I frequent.
