The Official Contest of Marvels 3 Discussion Thread

I'm not big on the Iron Fist characters; so, I'll just agree with Wiegeabo's choices. I just cannot see them high on my list.

As for evil Nightcrawler, go ahead and put him in Potential for me.
 
Keep
Agent X (Alex Hayden)
Justice (John Roger Tensen) - The one character I'd like from New Universe. Hmmm...not sure, but Starbrand could have potential, too.
Marvel Boy (Noh-Varr)
Ethan Edwards
Miss Arrow
Harald Jaekelsson
Hybrid (Jimmy Marks)
Rom
Steel Spider


Potential
Albert (From Albert/Elsie-Dee) - From his bio, he seemed really neat.
Buzz (From Spider-Girl)
Crimson Cowl (Justine Hammer)
Gargoyle - I'm surprised he hasn't been in the competition yet. He was a pretty big B-List character back in the 70's and 80's.
Harrier
Maelstrom
Nebula
Nekra
Sabra
Sin
Starhawk
Stegron
Stingray
Sundown
T-Ray

Drop
Hulk 2099
 
Keep
Steel Serpent Serpent of Phoenix version?

Yeah, I prefer that. I'll make the heading.

Potential
Dog Brother #1 I thought we said no familiars. Like Kitty and Lockhead. Red Ghost and his apes.

I think we said no familiars if the familiars could potentially be characters of their own. Lockheed and Red Ghost's apes have personalities and character of their own. Things like Redwing and Dog Brother's dogs are just basic animals that make up a part of their owner's character.


And Bride of Nine Spiders is awsome. I'll be debating to keep her in the potential round, that's for sure.

And Phaed, trust me, they may not be high on your list, but I garentee I'll have them high on mine. I love these guys!

The previous Potentials aren't listed here because they're already on the main potential list, but I moved the Misc. Keeps here so they're all in order. I'll move the potentials to their propper list as well after I post this. I'll leave it up to Phaed to call his handbook searching finished. When he does then we can start rooting through the Potential list to finish up the 512 character list.

I like American Eagle and Sepulchre. My problem with the android Thor is he's controlled by another person...kind of like, "Sick 'em," right? So, I would say drop, simply for the fact that he cannot program himself.

If this isn't the case, then that's fine. But, like I said, from what I remember reading, he had to be sent to do his destruction. Debating him, I'd just argue that he cannot program himself to fight, thus wouldn't know what to do.
 
BTW, I just got a load of comics from mycomicshop.com. For $200.00, I got over 100 classic comics! And, even though many are in Fine-VF condition, I don't mind. I can hardly tell the difference between many I get from them in worse than NM condition, anyway.

Anyway, I finally completed my Wolverine collection, picking up issues 1 & 2 of his second volume. (I luckily got the first volume miniseries for 40 bucks on ebay last year.) I got some great 70's annuals from Amazing Spider-Man, Hulk, Avengers, and Fantastic Four. Plus, I grabbed some really old annuals that were in VG condition, and they looked nice. I was surprised, thinking VG condition wouldn't be that nice. I also started collecting DC Comics Presents, and found many of those books are only $1.49 in NM condition. God, I love collecting comics!
 
OH, and if you can get the chance, RUN out to your local theater and see Coraline in 3D. It's the best 3D animated film I've seen thus far, and Neil Gaiman has made such a great, magical story. This is DEFINITELY not just for kids...in fact, I think a few of the scenes are more aimed for adults than the kiddies.

I still think the Oscars got one thing wrong this year in the Best Picture category. I've watched Wall-E a few times, and find it just a perfect movie. It should have been nominated, and will stand up to the test of time better than most of the other films mentioned.
 
My wife and I are seeing Coraline for Valentine's Day. Is it kid friendly (as in will it scare a 3 and 5 year old?)

And since you mentioned comics, that reminds me. Do you plan on giving away rewards this season? You don't have to, but I thought I'd ask. I would offer but I have nothing to give. I've pretty much stopped buying back issues unless I plan to bind them in hardbacks.

As for Ragnarok, the Thor Clone, he isn't controled. He's programed to fight for the Pro-Registration side of the Civil War but he malfunctioned almost instantly and did his own thing. Then when he was "fixed" he went nuts again and fought like mad. And now in Initiative he's killing everyone again on his own.

There could be an argument made that he wouldn't attack Reed, Tony, or Hank, but I think he's malfunctioned enough to believe he'd creamate anyone else that stood in his path.
 
Double post so I'll take this opportunity to ask if Texas Twister made the cut?

:D



:thing: :doom: :thing:

He's not made the cut yet, but he's not dismissed yet either. He's currently on the Potential list. Once we finish our definate Keep list (which should be any time now) we will see how many more spots we have to fill and we'll fill them from the potential list. I'm guessing at least 50 spots will be available and we have maybe 80 Potentials, so he's still an option so far. I can't guarentee he'll make it, but he still might.
 
Okay, I've moved American Eagle to the Keep list. Is there anyone else that we would like to consider before moving to the Potentials list? I can't think of anyone so I'm ready to move on. Once both Phaed and W agree we can fill the rest of the spots and call this season's contender list finished. I'm okay with waiting if you guys need to though so don't feel rushed.
 
Is there anyone I still need to vote on before moving to potentials?

136 Potentials
 
Last edited:
Is there anyone I still need to vote on before moving to potentials?

Nope. We're caught up.



Provided no more characters are suggested, we are at 432 out of 512 characters. That leaves us needing to pluck 80 characters from the Potential List. There are 136 characters currently on the Potential List. My suggestion is for Phaed, W, and I to individually pick out the 80 characters we want to keep. We'll compare notes and keep anyone that all 3 of us agreed to. Then we'll see how many more we need and continue doing this until we get a solid 80 that we agree on (I'm sure with some debates in the middle). It may be time consuming but I think it's the best way.
 
I think it might be easier to shrink down the list by removing characters we think we should eliminate from contention, if you don't mind. If you have any misgivings, let's speak our mind now.

Ant-Man (Eric O'Grady) - I think we should have an Ant-Man; but, I wouldn't want to be stuck with the coward of the two.
Doorman - He was a pain in the butt last time. I think to eleviate an problems, he should be gone.
Mr. Immortal - Again, he's immortal....but, that's about it. He's a comedic character, and the person who has him can just say, "Yeah, but he's not dead yet."
Scarlet Witch - We could have her at her original power-level, Before Bendis. But, why even deal with the hassle?
Squirrel Girl - I like her character...but, we'll be dealing with the comedic elements presented, and do you want to debate that she defeated Thanos? For ease, I say let's just get rid of the entire GLA.
Adam Warlock - We don't know his current power levels...and, it's possible he's too uber. So, for ease of the competition, again...
Blackbolt - He's got one big power that can level an entire mountain. He's too uber with that, and without it, kind of useless to me.
Red Ghost - Without his apes, why even have him?
Night Thrasher (Dwayne) - We've got one; we don't need another.
Sphinx - He's either too uber or too difficult to pin down his power level, just like last season.
Swarm - It just takes one character of a scientific mind to take down this character. You know how to kill bees, you can probably wipe the floor with Swarm.
Cerebro - I think Cerebro is too uber.
Danger - I KNOW Danger is too uber. I saw the official Marvel bio, and Danger would be my first choice if she was in this competition.
Dagger - Cloak might be useful...but, Dagger is just lame.
 
My six year old was just fine...but, it is a very dark, disturbing movie. Oh, and it's a bit lengthy...it might be a bit too long for your three year old. It really is just as much a visual film as a great story.
 
I'm so mad, I made a bit list of characters and screwed it up!

Anyhow, I agree with Phaed. his way is better. I say we stick to the 2 vote system, though the 3rd person can debate if he's passionate about a character being kept.

As for Phaed's picks, I agree with all but Scarlet Witch, Swarm, and Dagger. I'm not sure I want to keep them just yet but I'm not wanting to let them go yet either. I'm still debating them.

Other characters I feel should be dropped from Potential status are:

Gorilla Girl - She just turns into a gorilla. There's a lot better out there.
Nitro - He's a one trick pony and a boring debate.
Microbe - Could be interesting but he's slow and not very effective.
Hammerhead - His upgrades are good but I'm still not convinced he'll do anything.
Shocker - Kills me. I love him, but he's the Shocker. He won't get far at all.
Spider-Man (The Other) - With Spidey and Miss Arrow I don't think he's needed.
Wither - His powers to decay things is instant death. But he won't use his powers on another person, and he's not as skilled fighting as others are. Unless he fights robots, he won't do well.
Killer Shrike - I'm not impressed.
Anthem
Heavy
Mulholland
Supernaut
Veda

And finally, the Order (the above 5 names). I really want to include these guys but information on them just isn't there. There's more questions than answers and I think they'd be more of a headache than their worth. Calamity is fine (and already approved), and I think Aralune is still an option. The rest cause too many questions.
 
I agree with all but these two.

Hammerhead
Spider-Man (The Other)

Hammerhead took down Spidey, and I'd sooner have another bad-ass Spidey than many of the others on the list. Plus, this Spidey would be the one with ALL the memories of stuff that happened while married to MJ. The other Spidey wouldn't be able to use memories that he might know nothing about. (For example, we have to figure Spidey did have all his encounters with Venom...but, what does Peter remember? Many of those dealt with MJ in his married years.)
