Glad you had fun LZ. Might interest you to know that Deki was gonna be the tie-breaker vote.

Was woundering when you'd get around to that:P

Fishfood saved the day! Yay!

Now to await Galvasean's super tournament of tourneytasticness!

Deki · 17-03-2010 12:09am

And you are going to do one too? Right?:pac:

Handsome Bob · 17-03-2010 12:24am

Fishfood only did what was right.

LZ celebrated the decision by watching Burton's films.

No point in me starting itn yet as I'll be going away at teh end of teh month. There's enough time to fit another tourney in before I get back.

That and the character roster isn't finalised yet. Anyone want a particular hero (must be a 'goodie'.. well, i might consider some less noble characters, if tehre is a hint of goodness about them) added post here (or PM me to surprise people).
I'll see who I can add.

Also need to fine tune the 'rewards system'.

"The limit of The Darkness's power is unknown"

and with that I give an emphatic 'NO' to Jackie. Too much power. THis tourney calls for characters to build on.

Ah yoh, if there's a power limit built in then fair enough. Though the lad has plenty of flaws, he's no Galactus or anything.

Stick him in some light and he's screwed (though he's a skilled hitman), plus he really tries his hardest not to use the darkness, or at least that's the way it was in the last comic I read.

Still... put him in a dark room and he'll take anyone, so I see your point.

FewFew · 19-03-2010 3:25am

Another suggestion...

Jesse from the Preacher comics. It is Jesse isn't it? The Preacher in the title. A lot of power, but even a powerless grunt can overcome his voice yoke.

Yeah these battles will take place at night (Nocturnal forum y'know).
I'll have aread up on Jesses. Sounds a good character.

I haven't finished the series (got to a stage where the GNs were in short supply in the shops and also climbing in price) but basically he's a bit of a bad ass southern type of guy who gets inhabited by the spawn of an angel and demon (which is apparently as power as god.) From this his power is the voice of god... so if you hear him and understand him you are compelled to do what he says. I think there's one scene where he tells a cop to go **** himself... pretty sure the cop rips off his manhood and shoves it up his arse. But then there's the time where they're trying to fight a bunch of French lads who can't understand him so he gets the crap beaten out of him etc.

I don't know if he gets any more powers (which would most likely make him too powerful.) but as he is he's pretty interesting and powerful, yet has his limits and can be beaten easily enough, so Elektra for example would most likely have the speed to get a blade into his brain before he can say a word etc.

Handsome Bob · 19-03-2010 6:52pm

Wow, Wolverine gets his ass handed to him a surprising amount of times. Spock......Punisher....The Hulk.....Sabretooth.......who's next? Squirrel Girl?

The whole regenerating thing makes him good fodder for writers. You acn rip him to bits and he can still come back later (although I think his regenerative abilities have been stretched to ludicrous levels in recent times, but that's a different point). If you do the same to The Punisher it's kind of hard to bring him back without resorting to some sort of oddball deus ex machina.

cyberwolf77 · 27-03-2010 2:18pm

This popped into my head the other day. I know not why

MOGO

VS

EGO, THE LIVING PLANET

Winner to face Galactus

FewFew · 27-03-2010 3:30pm

What's Mogo?

cyberwolf77 · 27-03-2010 11:06pm

The largest member of the Green Lantern Corps.(he's planet sized)

FewFew · 28-03-2010 8:12pm

Where does he put his ring? He's a fuppin' chancer!

entropi · 29-03-2010 3:53pm

Well if there is another vote going on here i'm siding with Mogo; Ego may be able to change shape and appearance to suit it's current status, but as soon as Mogo comes near it, Ego will get ripped apart from gravity alone and it's game over.

Mogo for the win!

Though surely Ego must have some sort of gravity too? It's a tricky one really... Ego has psionic blasts that can destroy other planets, but Mogo has a ring (somewhere)

Delirium · 29-03-2010 5:25pm

Ego, solely for this reason:D

As far as superhero films go I really enjoyed it. It's on a level with S-M2 and Batman Begins which I think are 4 star films. Not quite on the 5 star level of TDK though. :pac:

That's a pretty good recommendation. Must check it out, though I have Clash of the Titans pegged above it on my "to-see" list... just because I was a fan of the original movie.

It's a battle not worth mentioning, because we know who'd win.

Remove morals and pathos from the battle and yes, Spiderman would win.
