I have pretty much every genre of RPG well represented on my recently much downsized shelf of games except supers. And I'm not get familiar with what's out there right now in terms of current supers games, but I do know what I'm looking for:
1. Complete in one volume. I appreciate that some supers games break the rules up into multiple books detailing every possible mode of play and or adjacent topic (e.g. gadgets), but I don't need that level of detail AND it runs contrary to my goal of keeping my game collection confined to one shelf. ;)
2. Good rules for magic. I'd ideally like the rules to include provisions for creating a character like John Constantine. Or Doctor Strange. Something more than one power with a lot of handwavium. An actual system of building and using spells or spell-like abilities.
3. Hardcoded rules for creating characters of differing power levels (e.g., The Question, Batman, Superman, etc).
Is there anything currently on offer (or out of print but easily obtainable) that meets these criteria?
