The following links are sites or forum threads with an unbelievable number of datafiles for characters not just from the Marvel Universe, but many other comic book universes and other media as well. I didn’t make any of this stuff, but it seems too good to pass up linking here!
Links updated 11/7/2023 as a lot of the originals have died in the intervening years.
- Printer-friendly character sheet
- Dice pool builder (originally by Bold Pueblo Games)
- Player cheat sheet
- Watcher cheat sheet
- Common SFX and Limits
Datafiles for various characters, Marvel and otherwise!
- Exploring Infinity’s “Lost Files of Marvel!“
- Lost Files of Marvel! thread at RPGNet. There’s also a Guardians of the Galaxy thread that adds a lot of cosmic characters starting on page 6 of the thread.
- Hero Datafiles at the Marvel Heroic Roleplaying wiki. There’s also a section on Watcher Datafiles.
- Marvel Plot Points is a great MHR resource site, and has both Hero and Villain pages.
And for those of you that want all of the goodness of MHR without the branding, here’s a hack that rebuilds the game using the Cortex Prime Game Handbook by Reddit user josh_from_accounting: Giant Corporate Owned Comics Heroic Role-playing.
