My Round 2 Pick:

 

Team Name: The Copy-Cats

 

Super Skrull

 

Annihilation004_SKRULL_scaled_800.png

 

so by my figures:

 

 

  • 5 bonus points if the character has never starred in own solo ONGOING title or MINISERIES or TEAM title (always a villain and never part of a team or had his own book)
  • 3 bonus points if the character has never died (Debatable)
  • 3 points if you give your team a name
  • 3 bonus points if the pick is selected within 24 hours

So that should be 11-14 bonus points

 

Sending PM to Hermit, now.

Round 2 – Who da Man?

Your character must have been created by Stan Lee.

2 point if the co-creator was not Kirby or Ditko

(Co Creator was Don Heck)


  • 3 bonus points if the pick is selected within 24 hours

Round 2 pick is Clint Barton aka Hawkeye!

He's a bit headstrong

And I go twice if I recall, due to being at one of the bookends of this

 

Round 3 – I Was Born This Way
These characters were born with their superhuman abilities. Aliens with superhuman abilities count. Artificial life-forms are not allowed—created is not the same as being born.
  • 1 point if the character had their powers from birth
2 bonus points if the character is otherwise human (mutant or meta)
 
(Well, half human, and Atlanteans were altered from human stock so yes?)
  • 3 bonus points if the pick is selected within 24 hours
Round 3 pick is Aquaman aka Arthur Curry aka "King over most of the ####ing planet!"

PM from Bluecloud returned to let him know of Round 3

And I think I may owe Lady Pariah an apology. Despite their hair color, the reasons I took Clint and Arthur were not their golden locks

Yep. Both were on my list. Those two sting a bit. Lucky for me, due to fan service, there are plenty of blondes to choose from.

I'm surprised you didn't pick a certain someone for the Stan Lee round that just ended. This character is very famous and is right in front of you but you couldn't see it. Bwahahaaa

 

;)

I can't think of who you mean but I suppose you'll tell me after you choose them? I had someone in mind when Pariah first starting telling me about this draft but for the life of me I couldn't remember who it was. Thanks for taunting me! :-P

Good grief, it's not Stripperella, is it?  :ugly:

No worries, and didn't mean to taunt you but gave you a riddle wrapped in a joke. And no more hints. ;)

 

Will I tell you who the character is? Yes, no, maybe, who knows, we might be able to come to some arrangement... :whistle::angel:

 

 

(and due to respect for my other players won't out the character publically but will confirm is someone guesses correctly)

Round 3 Pick: Rogue (X-Men)

 

5f6835db85faea289a3df92ef39fcd67.jpg

 

3 bonus points if the character has never died (I think)
1 bonus point if the character chosen is female
    2 bonus points if the character is otherwise human (mutant or meta)
    1 point if the character's powers are dangerous to them or their environment

3 Point if picked within 24 hours

 

For 10 points, I think.

 

Sending a PM to Pariah after this.

Rats.

 

 

I need to ponder for a bit.

I figured.

Hawkeye did well last season, just not for me, so I thought I'd see how it went.

And I've always been an Aquaman fan.

 

Since snipes were coming strong out of the gate I figured I'd go with some heroes I loved and enjoyed reading rather than maximum points etc. That'll cost me, but heck, I'm a Broncos fan... going from a winning season to falling on my face feels natural to me ;)

Okay, I think I have a replacement for Rogue.

 

Marvel Girl (Jean Grey)

 

grey-jean_2.jpg

 

(Incidentally, do you have any idea how hard it is to find a decent picture of her in this costume?!)

 

Points, as far as I can tell:

 

3 points for punctuality

1 point for lack of a Y-chromosome

2 points for otherwise human

1 point for dangerous powers (Professor X had to turn block her telepathy at a young age because the psychic backlash from a friend's death nearly killed her as well)

 

 

IMPORTANT NOTE:  As specified in the Excluded Characters bit, this is Jean without the Phoenix Force. Of course, she's still an Omega-level mutant without the Phoenix Force, so she can still hold her own.

 

Psybolt, back to you.

Funny, I was going to say that as a Broncos fan, coming up short in the Finals feels natural to me.
