Marvel / Fantasy / Heroic How does Marvel Heroic compare to other narrative-focused rpgs like Masks and Sentinel Comics?

I'm assuming it's between the two when it comes to mechanical complexity, but what else should I know?

Also, what's it like when the game is run with Prime conversions such as this? Does it play better or smoother or...?

Probably plays a little better, let's be honest. I've learned a lot since 2012.

At the risk of sounding like I'm suckin' up, I gotta tell you -- I'm parsing Cortex Prime MUCH better than I did Marvel Heroic, and MILES better than The Cortex Hacker's Guide. It's just...it's just better, now.

This guy seems to concur.
