Comic Draft VI Sign Up/Ideas Thread

[raiderfan19]

There seems to be quite a bit of interest in a comic draft at this time. Given that I retired after winning the last one, Im going to commish this one unless anyone else is deadset on that job. The question im having is if we use a list(Iv considered just saying no one above the silver surfer power level and if there are any questions ask me in pms before the pick and ill let you know if that person is considered op but i see the potential issues with that too) is there anyone we would like to see added to vapid's old list? Also do we want to tweak the format any? Id like to have one of the numbers be a task that we can have heros try to accomplish or villains try to prevent but i can see why thats easier in theory than reality and the old standby is always good. So first everyone sign up. Second, let me know if you have any ideas.

[ZeN]

Sign me up.

I have the same issue with the list. There's so many characters out there that it would be difficult figuring out how to compile them. So I guess it's the old list plus additions. I always have a hard time figuring out OP vs. Temporary powered.. Lol So I don't know about that.

[raiderfan19]

You are in

[ZeN]

I'm pretty certain magic chiongson and anti hero are also interested

[magic chiongson]

i found the thread!

[magic chiongson]

add cosmo, howard the duck & squirrel girl!

[ZeN]

add cosmo, howard the duck & squirrel girl!
Squirrel Girl takes Mr. Freeze's place if this happens.. shes unstoppable!

[raiderfan19]

Lol. They will be added(except squirrel girl)

[magic chiongson]

Lol. They will be added(except squirrel girl)
there goes my 1st round pick, gonna have to stick with quasar then

[Timmy D for MVP]

I'm down.

[raiderfan19]

Up to 3. Anyone you wanna see added Timmy?

[ZeN]

I'd offer to PM some people but I like wouldn't get to it till Monday since I'll be busy all weekend. I'll see if I can send a few regardless.

[magic chiongson]

[Timmy D for MVP]

Up to 3. Anyone you wanna see added Timmy?

Uhhh... not off the top of my head besides a fully realized Molecule Man but only if I have the first pick otherwise not that.

I'm sure something will come to me at some point and if it's later I can PM you I guess.

[iamgine]

Interested

[ZeN]

is flash a first round pick?
No he's a 3rd round character so you should save him for a later round.

[magic chiongson]

No he's a 3rd round character so you should save him for a later round.

superman is the only certain 1st round pick, nobody beats superman

If there's space I'm in.

[Timmy D for MVP]

I'm gonna be at Disneyland this weekend. We're not expecting to start before Monday correct?

[Shade8780]

I want to enter this, but my superhero knowledge only extends to comic book movies and what I've read on forums. Gotta give it a pass.

[ZeN]

Seems like you'll be ok since like raiderfan said, we need at least 8 to get it going..

[raiderfan19]

youll be fine timmy.

If one of you guys who wants to enter but doesnt feel you have enough knowledge feels like entering ill help you. Does anyone know where jackass is?

[ZeN]

For those with less knowledge, just google "respect threads" for whatever character you're looking at... That'll help a lot. Also... wiki's are good but try to find actual feats/abilities shown in comics and not necessarily what they "could" do.
Too bad a lot of that is dated. It would help get a good idea though.

[raiderfan19]

Ive never read a comic in my whole life, all of my comic knowledge is based on respect threads and iv won three of these.


Jk but we seriously need more people so im trying to make it sound plausible

[zoom17]

Don't know to much about comics but isn't most of the characters cannon fodder to characters like superman?

[EricGordon23]

Seems pretty complicated.

[raiderfan19]

you guys know you can go back and read through some of the old threads? Hell i enjoyed that as much as anything when zen tried to talk me into starting this.


And Orion still should have beaten spawn.

Can we a find a last gm or do we need to bust out an alt? :lol

[raiderfan19]

If anyone wants to gm but is concerned about their knowledge I'll assist.

[ZeN]

So you'll judge twice? :coleman:
Wait is raiderfan not going to be a Gm? Just curious, I didn't read if he was going to be commish and judge only or or also Gm.

[KingBeasley08]

I don't know shit so I'll just be spectating. This ish better be good

[raiderfan19]

I'm not going to gm unless we get to Monday and need a gm. If so I'll draft for someone else to take over since we invariably have someone jump in midway through. I would prefer not to be commish judge and gm. Just too much of a conflict of interest...


And it would look bad when I made a page long argument why my guy should win and then voted for someone else(which going back to that last draft I would have done in say flash vs supreme)

I recall you stating your profession as a parol officer. That's why I made that comment.
