    No love for Superboy, although that was a dreadfully acted show, as Silver Surfer advances. Next it's an 80s show versus a 90s one.

    Batman: TAS gets a dominant win to advance. Next up it's a classic show versus a recent-ish one.

    I'm sad to see Phantom 2040 eliminated (it's worth a look on Youtube if you've never seen it) but Mutant X proves the decisive victor. The final tie of the round is a modern show versus a 90s one.

    I have to say I was sorely tempted to stick a vote on Spider-Man there (one of my childhood favourites) but I held off, and Jessica Jones takes the final spot (sorry fellow Spidey fans!). I note it was another 3-2 result and it feels like there's been a lot of them. It's an exciting tournament so far.

    I will now do the draw for Round 2 and we should be able to get a few ties done tonight. Stay tuned. :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,552 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Okay folks, the draw for Round 2 has been made and there's some great clashes coming up. The final tie of the round especially caught my eye as it's two well thought-of shows, and we'll be guaranteed a big casualty in that one.

    Like the last round, first show to 3 votes advances.

    So let's get to the first tie of the round which features a show from a few years back versus one from the 90s.
