Being able to mix 'n match the two games was a wicked way to have your fave heroes and villains battle in adventures you make up yourself. Then, in October 2003, the Indy HeroClix game brought tons of extra characters to the game. Hellboy, Judge Dread and the Danger Girls were just a few of the new heroes to the battle.
