Thanks! =D

I was always disappointed in D&D's classes when it came to feeling like a bulging pile of muscle. You could get a Barbarian's Rage or a Bull's Strength spell, but that +4 never never really felt like much - especially since you needed to be raging or use straight-out magic to achieve them. Monks were better, with great unarmed damage and an easier time getting the grappling feats, but they still felt too 'exotic' and had a focus on being nimble.

I wanted to make a class that anyone would point to immediately if they were asked which class Thor would be, or Heracles, or Aquaman, or that guy from the old Mighty Max cartoon... And the superhero theme from the contest was the perfect way to frame it. =)
