Description And the next hero for the series Heroes and Villains of Miskatonic City is the flashy Alex Rook. Rook is owned and created by Ross Snyder Jr 

"They say those who can, do but those who can't TEACH. This is where Alex Rook's life has lead him. Growing up he found himself not really good at anything....or bad for that matter, just kind of mediocre at everything...including super heroics. Instead of simply retiring or living his life in quiet obscurity, he instead opened ROOK SECURITY INC. His security company is famous for both exclusively using super powered people as its employees & for offering training in the use of their superpowers, helping them to control/harness/hone their abilities all while making money! Alex Rook is now a player in this world, just like he always wanted, by having a legion of super beings at his finger tips! (important note, He's one of my complete good guy/heroes, not an anti-hero or villain, despite my rather ominous sounding origin)

Superpowers: Alex Rook is a psionic battery & amplifier. He absorbs any and all psychic energy directed at him (both benign & harmful), amplifying & storing that energy. He is able to use this stored energy to various effects, duplicating nearly any kind of psychic power, until the energy is depleted....He's kind of like a living green lantern ring but lacks the infinite supply of energy that the green lantern itself provides."

Yeah He is based on a character of the same name I played in an old DCU role playing game, right down to Rook Security Ink. In fact when I made the pitch about what he does to another player in game, he response was "So you run a community college for super heroes?"

He came out very well! I still can't get over how much he looks like my magician friend, and I wasn't even basing Rook on him! I can't wait to see his card printed.

Now I have that scene from Ironman 2 when Tony introduces himself at his Stark Expo, only replace Tony Stark with Alex Rook & AC/DC song with Queen's Its a Kind of Magic!

Well it would only make sense, could you image Tony & Alex trying to out do each other when it came to flashy theatrics?
