Introduction: Foreword

Men & Supermen, in some form or other, has been around since 1980. I couldn’t have done it without the many playtesters. Their heroes survived the early days of the world’s creation and the fundamental changes in the laws of physics which followed. Their names shall forever be etched in the Chronicle of Heroes, on the Life Stone in the Caverns at the End of Time.

And again there shall be wonder,
as the singer draws the pen,
And legends fill the story
as the eagle learns its ken,

As heroes fight for freedom
on the planet, end to end,
They shall strive a fight for justice—

Men, and Supermen.

—The First Circle of Earth

Special thanks go to Rory Keating and Thor Brickman, who spent many hours arguing with me over various rules and the game as a whole. This book is dedicated to Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster, creators of Superman™ and to E. Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, creators of the Dungeons and Dragons™ role playing game. If it weren’t for them I’d spend all my free time reading romance novels and playing bridge.
