I RETURN FROM BEYOND WITH A NEW CHALLENGE FOR YOU
Posts
Ah, alright then.
If I don't get a partner I'll probably end up waiting until I assign people their heroes and just pick someone that's left over
That will be the only abuse of power I'll do, and it's not even a good abuse. It's almost like I'm abusing myself, actually, which is the opposite of how I'm supposed to abuse my powers.
YOU GET ONE HERO PER TEAM
THERE MAY BE MORE THAN JUST A TOURNAMENT GOING ON HERE
WE'LL SEE NEXT WEEK!
Also, I don't have convenient access to a scanner, which really makes me lean toward writing even more.
I suppose my point is, I'll write for anyone willing to have me.
The choice is yours and yours alone.
Be prepared for furry chests and bad writing, you´ve been warned.

Does that mean strip our choices down to one? I thought you'd want us to have three prospects so you could pick the one who'd be most appropriate for whatever you have planned.
No, you pick your top three.
Number one being the character you most want to draw / write, and so on. If somebody already picked your number one, then you get your second.
PSN: OrneryRooster
So under most circumstances we get top pick? It won't be Beyonder's favorite from among our three choices?
From what I've compiled from months of data, yes, you should get your top pick. Unless I've completely read the rules wrong.
It's up the Beyonder now.

JCM, for instance, probably wouldn't pick X-O if he knew that the first challenge was going to be a Spelling Bee. I mean, maybe he would, I don't know. Can cyber-barbarians spell well?
But yeah, we're making our choices knowing nothing and Beyonder, with his foreknowledge of events, would perhaps be more qualified to choose characters that we'll like (they're in our top 3, so of course we will) and will best suit the circumstances of the game.
But I guess I'm over-thinking things. I'll just leave it to Beyonder and see what happens.
This would at least have really funny results. In fact, if they all turned out like this, that would be awesome.
The armor would spell it for him, but it would take a loooooong time.... if the time limit was 5 minutes for spelling "ROMAN", but then he´d proceed to destroy the stage in a roman-intolerance induced rage.
I dont mind sticking by X-O, even if its a depilation contest-
But just in case if its allowed a 2nd-3rd choice, JCM´s ocbscure hero team!
1) X-O manowar
2) Ash (yeah, Joe Quesada´s Ash)
3) Hitman (Garth Ennis´ mainstream DC masterpiece)

duh
you get this for free
then you have to pay for the villain expansion pack
They're not going to just call it a new challenge and have it interact with the original challenge, officially making it an expansion pack even though the publisher won't admit it? Gadzooks, that's cleaver of them. :P
PARKER, YOU'RE FIRED! <-- My comic book podcast! Satan look here!
I lol'ed.
Username: Charmy
Artist: Charmy (unfortunately)
1) Animal Man
2) The Flash (Jay, Barry or Wally, whichever I'm allowed)
3) The Great Machine
I'm sure some of those have been picked already, though I didn't see them when I went through the thread.
I originally had Animal Man but switched him out after Toji told me this was a solo hero thing.
Other two haven't been picked, as far as I recall.
Hero Choice 1: The Punisher
Hero Choice 2: Venom Scorpion Form
Hero Choice 3: Penance formerly Speedball
I must admit I haven't checked everything yet but I hope no ones already taken these. If so please tell me.
I will be doing all my own story telling and drawing. This is my triple threat Thunderbolts SHRA supporter team.
Here's a taste of my artistic mastery:

And my choices, again, are:
The Captain
Swamp Thing
The Haunted Tank
Cant one kill Penance by just shaking him hard, with all those spikes inside his suit?

I'm going to go ahead and say I've never drawn any of these guys before so it looks like crap.
Nope. The spikes aren't big enough to kill him unless you seriously dented his costume. At one point he takes off his helmet to reveal his face and there's only a little blood so they probably aren't digging in too deep although if they did his emoness would be even more extreme and lawlzy. I like the whole thing with how each time he punches he has two special spikes to remind him of two children he actually knew the names of.
I've never written any of the characters so we're going at it as rookies.
Though Team Mr. Lovely Pink Bastard will reign supreme.
Psh. Team Keithedora is the best
Oh God this is gonna turn into some Warriors shit.
Agreed. I'd like to do Plastic Man, but I've never read anything that he's been in, save for 52, and he only makes slight appearances there.
YOU
DIG IT?!
I was thinking of heroes like Wesley Dodds, Doorman and The Shade, but I've read so little of them.
I could do Hollow. She should be easy to do being close to mute and all.
But I figure the best way to go is to pick characters whose tone matches your own, if you're that worried about capturing voices.
