Description
Edit: fixed and finalhere is the first of the doom brigade Super Villains, Killadon!!!
a Mercenary from outerspace.. his sole purpose was to plunder earth's wealth and conquer the planet.. his plans were foiled by the guardian Legion.. Now Killadon is a massive fighter and lends his supreme martial arts and alien fighting skills to the Doom Brigade..
the card says this behind the arms..
The Alien Mercenary known as Killadon, is bent on plunder and destruction. Killadon is a trained martial artist, and vicious killer. When Killadon first arrived on Earth, he was unaware that Earth had super heroes as powerful as those in the Guardian Legion. Killadon suffered a defeat, and after that fought the super powerful Komissar, who persuaded Killadon to Join the Doom Brigade, and bring about a new world order.
Though not very smart, Killadon gained his martial arts skill and knowledge While he was a lowly technician working on the Ancient galactic Federation library and museum planet, called the Lexicon. Using the forbidden Mind Melder, Killadon was instantly given extensive martial arts knowledge. Killadon Naturally possesses super strength and has a super dense skin that makes him nearly impervious to harm.

Very nice design...he'd never pass for a good guy, heh. Colors are tight too. (Is Jeaf-7 still doing the coloring or is this your work? Just curious.)
What are those plate things on his legs? Part of his armor or part of his anatomy?

nah, that's all me on the colors bro.. Jeaf-7 is still doing color work for us.. and will probably be doing the star superion origin comic coming soon.. all i need is an inker who wants in on the project.. it's kinda top secret for now..
the plate things on his legs are actually pockets on his pants, and not part of his anatomy.. hit's kinda like his secret bomb stash or something like that.. alien tech and what not..
you'll be surprised who the super genius is on the Guardian Legion's team...
A Simian!!!

You gotta do something about the text placement, or the character placement. It's one thing for the figure to overlap certain parts of the graphics, but when the figure is blocking words in the description, it gives off the impression that the text isn't that important.

what I mean by too much is in printing.. one size is what I can get for cheap, another size comes with a bulk price.. just the way it is I suppose.. but these will be in a book, or as separate cards with holes punched into them.. like the marvel cards..

Don't be so quick to etch your designs in stone, that's all I'm saying. You can probably figure out a design that accomodates characters of all shapes and sizes, if you want.
If you're happy with things as they are, then that's good too. Artistic conviction is key, lest you spend too much time second-guessing yourself like I do...

actually i think that him covering the text just says, he's massive.. and I've seen that on other things before..with say the HULK for instance.. honestly, the text matters, but not so much as a kid will be paying attention to the stats..
however, i may try to reduce it, but he'll look small comparatively.. and I can't expand certain file cards to accommodate larger and bulkier characters.. it'd be too much.. no..I think I may just stick with him hiding the words..unfortunate as it is..

Maybe you could just reposition some of the lettering? Make his hand cause the paragraph to indent--just on this one. You could even play with the font size to compensate. You wouldn't want to make a habit out of blocking the text on future character cards...otherwise, why write the words at all, right? Lest you forget, this may be an all-ages set up but adults should be interested too, especially since they're the ones who spend the money.
In the end of course, they're your designs and it's totally up to you. Just remember that in a situation like this, the visual design is just as important as the information you're trying to express, and vice versa.

well i can shrink him.. hmm....

I know it may not be what you want to do, but it may be for the best, if you don't want to redraw him...
Something else to consider: if you're making these data files for print, you might consider doing a full body of the character on one side and a close up of the bust on the back where the info is. You could even use the banner images you were doing before for the front side.
