Bronze Age Heroes

The Bronze Age was a time of heroes, and I'm talking real heroes, men who said what they meant and backed it up. One such titan was Evel Knievel, he inspired every kid in America to get a piece of plywood, build a ramp and wreck a bicycle trying to jump over a tonka truck or his sister's Barbie RV. Evel Knievel was the ultimate badass too, nobody ever shot their mouth off to Evel because they knew he would knock the hell out of them.

Now in this modern era we have bullshit like "Extreme Eating Competitions" and some facebook blowhard or twittering dickweed might say, "Big deal, all he did was jump motorcycles over salvage vehicles". Oh yeah? Well think about this, keyboard commando; every time Evel got on that bike to do a jump he was literally risking his life, not a bad case of diarrhea from stuffing 75 soggy hot dogs down his gut.

To honor this hero of the Bronze Age here's a custom heroclix token, put it on the board and show some neckbeard how a real hero does the job.
