What??!!?? You don't know what the Contest Of Marvels is??!!??

Simply put, it's a 512 Marvel Character competition to find out who is the best of the best in the Marvel Universe. (Not to worry, those deemed too uber, like Thanos, most Galactus Heralds, and some magic types, haven't been included. We want almost everyone to have a chance at winning.) This competition is set up like the NCAA Brackets, and after these characters are divided up between the participants, we battle it out weekly in scheduled competitions. This is done by presenting the voters a reason why you believe your character should beat the other. (You can spend a little time with it...or, you can delve in deep, research the characters, read the comics, and try and out debate your opponent.)

Also, the winner of this contest will receive a comic prize from me! I'm not sure what the prize will be, but I will try and make sure it's going to be something you'll want, as I have many, many repeat issues, and they vary from early 70's to today. It doesn't even have to be Marvel, if you prefer DC or some other company.

Again, this is a very brief overview. If you have questions, please follow the link, and we'll provide any information you need. Or, you can just PM me.

Bump!

We currently had a tentative list of 11 participants, and we'd love to have anyone else interested in joining.

I've been debating which comics to give away to the winner. I have one that might be of interest to many. Captain America #25, the Variant Cover. This is a first print of the death of Captain America, that most comic shops sold out of in hours. I actually have five different copies of this comic, and the Variant first printing is a double; so, I'm willing to part ways with it.
