Pretty much every Marvel character can be built in GURPS though the reality warpers might take some liberties with Control.

Re: What do you want for the 35-year anniversary?
Hm. Wonder how old that particular subgenre is. Earliest I can think of off hand is A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889).

In one of the tales of Sinbad, he was trapped in a different land for a couple of years and gained great wealth through introducing new technology.

Re: What do you want for the 35-year anniversary?
Defoe and The Swiss Family Robinson both have quite a bit about how their castaways build something as close to European civilization as they can. For Defoe this is linked to colonial ideology, Hradzka of 'oh john ringo no' fame likes to compare other versions to home-improvement shows, the joy of watching people be competent and make things without the boring parts. We gamers know its like worldbuilding and conlanging.

Nothing special just for the system to have many more good years and maybe a bit of growth in its player base.

Re: What do you want for the 35-year anniversary?
1) I would pay for a Kromm Patreon (if it is GURPS related). Although I think it is very unlikely to happen for legal reasons.
2) More fluff is needed! I would love if more people as Mailanka or Christopher R Rice get to be their settings published such as Douglas. 3) More magic systems! Some magic systems are hinted at Fantasy, Taumatology and Horror books but I am sure they can me much more explored/exploted with new supplement 4) Same rules, different fluff! Different fluff on old advantages/disadvantages/limitations such as imbuements/afflictions/psi/divine favor...

Gurps Batman. Because everything is better with Batman.
Jokes aside, really nice would be the "lost Gurps Books", source-books that were planned but were abandoned / cancelled for some reasons. You know, books like "Gurps India" or "I feel fine". Oh, and it would be nice if one could order books that only appeared as pdf as print-on-demands.
