What it does

On reveal: +1 Power to your cards in other lanes.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 3 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 1999

A website listing over 100 female comic book characters who were harmed, from maiming to death, started by Gail Simone in 1999.

The name comes from Green Lantern #54 (1994), where a villain leaves the hero's girlfriend dead in a fridge. The site gave comics the word "fridging", and national newspapers cited it in 2000.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
