Always a fun listen, especially when Stu calls Cory CHAD and nobody corrects him. Lol
I got A LOT of play out of the SWA, really enjoyed those characters.
I remember Dave telling me at Galacticon, that he patterned the Cowboy after himself. He told me that was his nickname for a long time, why I don't know. I don't think Montreal is known for their rodeos.

I actually used Maim the most of any of the SWA crew. Krakan lacked a female HitMan/HitWoman for a long time and she slotted perfectly into that spot.

I could be wrong, though I don't think I am, but I don't think it was mentioned or even known that there were two versions of the SWA set. The first version is below, with my expert coloring.   |

@kevinb that is awesome! Especially like Goliath for some reason. And hey, don't sell your coloring short!  Did you have Solar Hawk as well, or was he a later addition? |

That's great, @kevinb! I don't remember that.
I do have two bonus cards, one for a smaller guy, like Alpha Flight's Puck. I believe had a -1 finisher. The second is the SWA President, a female character, whose name escapes me.

White Tiger was not in first edition, but Solar Hawk was but can't find that first card. Chad Olson, you are correct there was a female president too - but again I can't find that card. |

It really sucks that I'm missing 3 cards from that first edition, lost to several moves and the sands of time. SOLAR HAWK, CANNONBALL and woman President.
Dave and I hung out A LOT at several Galacticons, so maybe I was just lucky to get an early prototype.
