    Dredd put in a respectable showing against The Hulk and at one point it was 2-2 but Hulk gets the support he needs and smashes into the quarter-finals.

    That wraps up the round of 16 which leaves us with the lone supervillain, Magneto, plus seven superheroes.

    I will have the draw done and begin posting the quarter-final tie later this evening since I'm sure most of you will be enjoying the sunshine. Let's say after 8 pm or so. :cool:

    Go away for 2 days, miss all the action and all my favourites get voted out... Typical! :)

    Okay folks the draw for the quarter-finals has been made and we have some very exciting clashes on the way. I genuinely think these upcoming contests could go either way, so we could see some close scraps.

    In this round the first three ties will be superhero vs superhero bouts, with the final tie being the one superhero vs supervillain bout. (We know who the villain will be as there's only one left: Magneto)

    Like the last round it will be the first character to reach 4 votes that advances. With that being said, let's get the first tie under way which is a hard-to-call Marvel vs Marvel match-up.




    The Silver Surfer

    It was pretty close but Captain America manages to pull away and takes the first spot in the semi-finals. Next up we have a really tasty DC vs Marvel confrontation.

    It's despair for Thor who is hammered by Batman, with the Dark Knight going forward to the semi-finals.

    A battle that went right to the wire; Superman led 3-1 at one stage but Hulk came back and soon it was 3-3, only for Superman to come through and take the tie and a place in the semi-finals.

    We come now to the final tie of the round, which is the only superhero vs supervillain tie, and it's a great one. We know the villain is the only one left, Magneto, but let's confirm who his opponent shall be...




    Magneto

    Spider-Man

    It's the villain with the power of magnetism who does not believe humans and mutants can peacefully coexist, Magneto, taking on the hero who does whatever a spider can, New York's web-slinger, Spider-Man.
