    Deadpool!

    Deadpool! Skips like a little schoolgirl into the next round!

    A flood of votes finishes off Storm's hopes as Deadpool swaggers into Round 2. We now reach the final tie of Round 1 and, as I promised, it's one of the biggest clashes of all as two iconic members of the Justice League collide.


    The Flash

    VS










    Wonder Woman

    It's the super-fast alter ego of Barry Allen and Wally West (among others), The Flash, versus the warrior princess of the Amazons, Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman.

    We are guaranteed a big casualty here. Which of the two takes the final spot in Round 2? Cast your votes now.

    I'm gonna go with The Flash. Were it not for the current TV show though, my answer may have been different.

    The Flash by a mile.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,203 ✭✭✭sonic85


    Just my opinion and loads of people may disagree with me but I think wonder woman is one of the worst super hero's out there. I just don't rate her at all - I think everything about her is naff. The lasso of truth - jeez.

    The flash all the way for me


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    The Flash speeds on into the next round leaving Wonder Woman trailing in his wake.

    And with that we have found our 32 qualified heroes. I will now randomize the names and begin presenting the ties for the next round.

    Stay tuned. :cool:

    Hail MNG..

    Okay folks the draw for Round 2 has been made and we have some cracking ties in the works. There's going to be some legendary heroes leaving the game but who those shall be will be down to yourselves.

    Like the last round the first hero to reach 3 votes shall advance.

    So without further ado let's get Round 2 up and running with our first bout and it's a tasty Marvel vs DC clash.


    Captain America

    Cap.

    Really tight for me love Cap but Dick Grayson is my second favorite superhero. I'm sure Cap will win but I vote for Dick.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    Cap.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,203 ✭✭✭sonic85


    Cap most definitely


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Captain America deflects Dick Grayson's best shots and reaches Round 2. Next up it's an X-Men/Avengers battle.


    Beast

    Black Widow

    250px-Black_Widow_1.jpg


    I guess you could describe this one as the battle of Beauty and the Beast; it's X-Men's brainy blue scientist, Beast, versus the deadly agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and member of the Avengers, Black Widow.

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,203 ✭✭✭sonic85


    Ooooh tough one! I like beast and in the movies he's been portrayed quite well.

    Black widow is a great character and let's face it sexy as hell.

    Gonna have to go for beast though


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    After a battle that went down to the wire it's Beast that manages to claw his way into Round 2. Next up is a battle featuring two very powerful characters.


    Jesse Custer

    The Reverend wins for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,203 ✭✭✭sonic85


    I'm gonna go for Professor X here. Custer sounds interesting but I've not read/seen enough of him to make an informed decision so I'll stick with what I know.

    The Prof is a legend anyway!


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Professor X powers his way into Round 2. Next up we have a hell of a battle involving Marvel and DC stars.

    Blade
