Damn! That no mind control rule threw me and forced me to adjust. Guess who I settled on? Darn it. Great pick, mind you, just also a great snipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermit Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 The snipage is heavy this draft. Yeah, I've lost some I did not see going... and currently I've got a group of heroes that look like they're auditioning for "Magic Mike: Super Sequel" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted March 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 An update from further questioning: I'm afraid I have to disallow the Plutonian under the "Holy crap is he powerful!" exception. Also, although we know full well that the Parallax bug was a retcon, it is canon now so Hal Jordan doesn't count for this round, either.

Hermit Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Sinestro is the Plutonian? The Plutonian is envious of Sinestro's magnificent mustache!

(And I think Log is just letting us know that because someone PMed a question about it) Yeah, someone asked, and I have a feeling they weren't the only one with The Plutonian on their radar. And everyone is envious of Sinestro's magnificent mustache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 So it is my turn to pick in Round 4 but Steve has to pick again whenever he logs back on? Have I got that right? If so I'll make my move shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I'll make my move shortly. Uh, it's your turn, but as far as I know, Steve gets to keep Sinestro. Log was talking about a PM regarding a different character (That different character being Plutonian) and letting folks know. So pick away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Round 4 pick--Playing Both Sides: Dr Victor Von Doom http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Doom pm sent to next player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 You might be reasonably be asking, Dr Doom a hero? Well yes. In FF Vol 1 #1-14 (May 2011 to March 2012). Many of us haven't read a comic book for at least 10 years so would have missed this series. I stumbled upon it myself now up to issue 12. Dr Doom joins Future Foundation team mates (link to FF #1): Reed Richards, Sue Richards, Thing, Spider-Man, Valeria Richards, Franklin Richards, Nathaniel Richards, etc. Basically the story is that Valeria Richards messes up big time as curiosity gets the better of her (a young daughter of Reed & Sue). She goes behind her parents back and makes a deal with Dr Doom. She will help him restore his mind if Doom agrees to help her with her problem, letting 3 or 4 evil Reed Richards from different universes into our universe. Dooms mind is restored and Doom honours his agreement with Valeria leaving Latveria in Kristoff's hand. In issue 13 Doom sacrifices himself against Celestials from a different universe to close the portal/door/bridge that Valeria opened. Link to digital comic on Comixology (TPB): FF by Jonathan Hickman Vol. 3 We've teased it for years, now find out exactly how Doctor Doom and the Future Foundation will save us all. The battle between the Council of Reeds and the Future Foundation extends through the BRIDGE and into the world now controlled by the Mad Celestials. All that says to me is that Doom has a stint as a hero which is what the fulfils this round's criteria. And then there is also this where Doom explains to Bast the Panther God is motivations—why he is a "supervillain": http://arousinggrammar.com/2013/09/24/the-motivations-of-doctor-doom/ Commish says it is all above board, but wanted to post this as I'm sure it could be controversial. TL:DR Dr Doom did a stint as a hero in FF Vol 1 #1-13. He honoured an agreement made with Valeria Richards and joined Reed, Sue, Ben, Franklin, and Valeria.

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted March 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Great picks so far (Doom also turned face in 2099, for those wondering). I have been asked about this one more than once, so here's more bad news: Terra, the traitor of the Teen Titans, does not count for this round. She was created as a traitor and was evil the whole time, no retcons necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
