Re: [RPG]: Defcon 1, reviewed by C.W.Richeson (3/3)

The international politics scholar in me would *love* to see a product that really digs into the fear, paranoia, and security concerns of the Cold War as they relate to super heroes. The United States had a large military advantage throughout the Cold War, but it would only take one Superman-level character to force both sides to reevaluate that status. There's a lot of other material that could be discussed, too, such as the advantages of hiding or mis-directing the might of superheroes.
That almost sounds like it'd be an excellent basis for a novel as well
