Some quick points -
* The list jumps from 60-70 with nothing in between. * I'm not in favour of any "to the death" rounds. * I prefer the most popular/consistent/utilised version of each character.

Some notes on new additions to the list:
7. Twine - DNA era: wields an energy whip that can sap the strength of anyone it touches
17. Ze Tongue - Postboot; shapeshifting tongue
52. Holdur - Preboot and Postboot; super-strong grip
58. Charma (Postboot)- can mind-control men ONLY. no effect on women.
59. Stheno - Postboot; can turn people who look at her into stone
61.Pollen - Postboot; only demonstrated power is unleashing poisonous spores
62. Arrow - Postboot; weapons expert
63. Praetor Lemnos - Threeboot; instantly makes people forget anything
64. Zepha - Threeboot; wind powers
65. Stasi - Threeboot; stasis fields
66. Eyeful Ethel - Preboot; can grow extra eyes anywhere
67. Tusker - Preboot; super long teeth
68. Golden Boy - Preboot; turns anything into gold
69. Storm Boy - Preboot; artificial storm creation
71. Quicksand - Preboot and Postboot; can turn liquids into solids and vice versa. Postboot version could also affect organic beings.

So Apollo's powers only work on females? Whoops. I hadn't realised that. The idea of Emerald Eyeful Ethel is inspired too!

Females and animals! I'm amazed someone else picked Ron/Ethel/Pollen to go through!

Thank you for your votes so far. I have already begun brainstorming ideas for stages in the next round. I have decided to use Superman's enemies for the next round and would like a little input as to what you want to see. I want to use Project Cadmus or its counterpoint the Evil Factory, but realize Kirby's designs were massive. Which do you think I should use and which specific parts would you like to see?

... but I still don't think that Ron-Karr and Eyeful Ethel can take down Twine. [/b]Well, I was thinking that if Twine has her whip wrapped around Pollen, and she pretty much has to hold onto that whip at the same time, then what has she got left to fight off Ron-Karr and Ethel with? Admittedly, Ron-Karr and Ethel are probably two of the weakest fighters in this game, but I think even the two of them could find a way to defeat a distracted, one-handed opponent who is without her primary weapon. That is such a weird match-up because, like I said, Pollen's group is so much less powerful than Empress' - but IMO it's still a match-up where the underdogs could conceivably win the day.

I pretty much started with the thought that "Wow, that's an incredibly lopsided battle!" then started thinking "Well, Earth Man's actually pretty useless here..." and then it started to seem plausible that Ron-Karr could possibly avoid Twine's whip as well, and then I was like "Aw, crap! There's nothing they could do against the Emerald Empress, though..." and then I remembered the old theory that Ethel was the perfect host for the Eye and it just seemed too cool not to go with!

It IS plausible, and I can see it happening. I'm almost tempted to change my vote, especially since I suggested Pollen for the game! Originally posted by Power Boy: Originally posted by Blacula: [QB]So Apollo's powers only work on females? Whoops. I hadn't realised that.

... Apollo's HOT!!
With all the male villains in this game, that could be veeeeeery interesting

Hmm...I could accept the top four as winners, but I would still have to choose three of the group of six to join them. Do you as players think that would be fair?
If not we can have another election to narrow it down further.

I'd be up for voting because it's fun but I'm fine with you choosing too.
Isn't it a total of six though ? just checking ...

It is a total of six, so I would have to pick two out of group of six.

I'm good with voting again!
If we do vote again, I'd pick Stheno (I can't believe I'm already so protective of a one-shot villain, but she has an interesting power) and... it'll be tough picking one more.

Assuming we are voting again I'm gettin my votes in early before the Christmas rush -
1. Stheno (I'm also a big fan of this character after just their one appearance. That was a rare late postboot/pre-DnA Legion story I enjoyed. The beautiful Alan Davis artwork certainly helped.) 2. Computo (The incongruity between that goofy yellow computer's design and his over-the-top dictatorial personality is one of my favourite things about the Adventure era.)

^ I almost went for both Hag and Apollo! I'd actually be happy with any of the characters on that list getting through. I like them all.
