This is a damn good RPG. I probably like it about as much as the 5 star raters do, I'm just stingier with my ratings.
The only problem I could find here is that character creation can be a bit challenging to learn at first. And even there, after a short adjustment period, it becomes easy, fun and very flexible. Able to create almost any superhero you might want to play.
In play, this is a fairly light game and runs quick and smooth. It's the kind of game where if the players don't roll high enough, they can still succeed with a complication, called a twist here. I appreciate that there are a lot of twists in the book, so you're not constantly sucking them out of your thumb with no support. PCs put twists on their character sheets during character creation, villains have twists that can happen while fighting them, the environments have twists that can happen during action scenes that take place there. Even with just the core, I feel like I'm being supported as...

Ok, so, the book is throughly enjoyable. It's something mainline super hero comics have forgotten how to be. Fun with out being condisending, obnoxious, or utterly incapable of allowing you to actually invest in it. And it understands the characters that were clearly inspirition sources, there archatypes and roles in a mythology, which is what super hero's ultimatly are after all, modern mythology, better than any book I've seen form Marvel or DC in about a decade and a half if not longer.
The art is solid, the pacing is fantastic, brisk but not so quick your missing anything you need.
I can not recommend it strongly enough! 5 out of 5! ...
