The 2012 SuperheroHype! Awards Ceremony

I'd like to take a minute to thank everyone for not only voting for me but for participating in this awards show. I think it's fitting I go into the HoF alongside Matt. We have a particularly interesting history together and I wouldn't have it any other way. I'd also would like to thank Marx for hosting this shindig and for putting up with all of us. That being said, I will murder all those elves tonight. Murder...Thank you and Good Night.

:up: We really are very much the yin and yang of the Hype. I too am glad to be inducted alongside you.

I'd like to thank the committee. It means a lot for me to get the Hypetime Achievement Award. 12 years...pretty crazy to think about. I love this site. It got me through some hard times. I've had a lot of fun here. The Hype is special. It means a lot to me to be inducted into her Hall of Fame. :yay:
 
Marx said:
I also want to say a very special "thank you" to all of the Award Committee Members. The Award Committee Members helped determined the second winner of the Hype-Time Achievement Award and they are...C.Lee, Dew K. Mosi, Hunter Rider, Matt, Scarlet spidey, TheCorpulent1, themanofbat, and The Lizard.

Technically I wasn't on the committee this year. I resigned at the beginning. :funny:
 
Congrats to all the winners, especially Matt and Phere, a couple of magnificent bastards! :up:

You win nothing! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
 
Dang it! I've been looking forward to the Hype Awards all week... then I get caught up in a Walking Dead marathon and totally miss it! (ps... this show is awesome! I'm 6 episodes into season 2 and am eagerly awaiting New Years tonight where my wife and friends are continuing the marathon while the kids freak out!)

That said... I'm totally stoked about the wins! This is my second time winning Best Writer (also, 2 years ago I believe) and I've definately grown since then.

It's my first Comics win and I'm rather shocked by that. I thought Anubis had it and likely should have won, but I'll take it and gladly rub it in his nose :D. I'm honored, thanks for the votes, and good night.
 
Since I've been nominated as best writer, I thought I'd give you guys a little treat (whether you like it or not).

I've self-published two novels thus far (both found in my sig) but have recently finished up the writing of my 3rd novel. I'm in the early stages of editing (and am hating it) but I'm going to share the first section of the novel here, somewhat edited but needing more work, so you can all have a first taste of what the book will be. It probably won't be for everyone, as it's a Christian Fantasy novel, but I sure enjoyed writing it and will be starting book 2 when this one's complete.

The jist of the story is that roundabouts 200 years before the story begins (in our future) mankind nearly destroyed the Earth through wars, hatred, and greed. The world, however, was saved as creatures that we thought to be fairy tales rose up and saved it, primarilly the elves. Much of the world as we know it is gone, having been reverted to a more primitive world of swords and arrows, but there are hints of the old-world technology and architecture about. After saving the world, the elves grew bitter at humanity for their handling of the Earth and, as the elves rose to power, they began hunting what was left of humanity. Mankind is now near extinction and scattered and the elves rule as tyrants. The main group of the story is a small tribe of humans who are essentially an image of the Christian church in a world very different from the one we know.

This preview is how the novel begins, a bit of a flashback. I am still figuring out a title for the novel but I'm leaning toward Tribal Refuge Book 1: From the Ruins of Extinction. I hope you enjoy it.

“How did we die?” the boy asked inquisitively.

“What do you mean, Randall?”

This was said with a playful smirk. The question was, quite possibly, the oddest one Silus Rook had ever been asked.

“I mean us, our people. How did we die?”

It took a moment but the meaning eventually sank into Silus’ aging mind.

“The human race, you mean? Yes, well... it is my belief that man’s descent began when we stopped believing in fairy tales.”

“Fairy tales?”

“Impossible stories of things seemingly uncanny. The thing is, fairy tales were often seeped through some form of truth. The last truth to become fairy tale was God Himself. When the last of our kind deserted God, He kindly removed himself from the Earth so that we could experience the fullness of freewill. Without God's guidance mankind’s moral code deteriorated until nothing mattered save power and greed, and family to some small extent. War became the proper course of debate. Many died.”

Randall Whitaker listened eagerly; he had always been an attentive child, so full of questions. Silus watched Randall as his words fell into place within the young boy's mind. Then Randall's brow furrowed as he considered some new, uncertain thought.

“So, if God is a fairy tale, then why do you still read that old book?”

Silus lowered his eyes to the book resting in his lap. Its pages were torn and dirty, but for the most part complete. Its leather cover, however, was so scuffed that the title was hardly legible, and the back cover was missing entirely. In fact, if one were to simply glance at the book they might miss the title altogether, but a flip through the first several pages revealed the name of its story.

“We read this Holy Bible to remember the fairy tales. Remember, the decline of man began after they deserted their gods. Recovered texts show this to be a rapidly growing theory in the final days of man... before the elves came. And so, we read to never forget.”

“But you believe in God.”

The man smiled as he ran his withered fingers over the leather.

“I do. It's amazing what works of the old world can do by simply reading them. This book, there aren't many like it left, but it gives me hope.”

“Like we give others hope?”

Silus laughed and pat Randall on the head.

“Very good, my boy. This world may hate humanity for our part in its near-destruction, but there is forgiveness to be found in the race of man, those of us who are left. It was for this reason, and for the words in this ancient text, that I formed Refuge. My hope is that, in time, this community will become a home for all races, no longer separated by fear or pride; one race and one people.”

“Even the elves?”

“Yes, even the elves.” Silus sighed and put an arm around his youngest student. “Especially the elves. They will stop hunting us in time and they will listen. I have faith.”


Refuge was razed exactly one year following this conversation. The elves leveled the small community and slaughtered its residents so that their ancient views would die with them. Silus Rook came to a painful end. The books were burned. Few survived.

And the main story picks up 47 years later, following those few survivors from the tribe of Refuge.

And a very well-deserved win for FilmNerdJamie as well! Bravo, sir. May your villainy reign-supreme in 2013 as well. :D
