Usually I'm a bit wary of these retcon "legacy" characters since it's become a huge cliche, however I'm really enjoying the pulp feel of Orson Randall, and I think he's really been a well defined character in his own right.
He doesn't feel like another attempt to sell "Pirate Spawn" action figures.
I'm going to be picking this one up.
