Category Winners

Main Character wanted on Slade's Titans: Ravager/Jason Todd
Most Wanted Character to write for: Spider-Man
Character we wanted used more: Wally West
Character most wanted to be resurrected: Ted Kord
Character we wish stayed killed off: Barry Allen

Man, we got some interesting picks. I love that almost everyone seems to agree that we need to see more Deathstroke/Ravager Hate/Hate (In the words of Bobby Blue Bland "Ain't no love..") so that's one thing DC should do. We also seem to want Jason on the team, and I for one would love to see Jason and Deathstroke interact, as well as Jason and Ravager interact some more. Hell, I say revamp the whole team from scratch, make it like Judd's Outsiders run but with anti-heroes. Anyway, the character most people wanna write for are Spider-Man, and considering how many Spidey books there are, we should all get a chance! We all want more Wally West, so give us more Wally. The fact that we want more of a character we've had as Flash for over 20 years shows what a big mistake it was for Barry to replace him. We want quite a few people resurrected but Ted Kord gets the top vote, so please DC, give us back Ted Kord! And we seem to want Barry Allen back in the grave, so have Barry sacrifice himself again during Flashpoint, he can look like a hero, just give us Wally back!

I wanna thank everyone for sending in your posts, if you guys like the Top Five 5 back I'll make it a monthly thing, so let me know what you all want. Below are the results of  last week's poll and be sure to vote in the new poll as well. Until next time, I'm your friendly neighborhood blogger-man, Jason Todd, signing off. You stay classy Todd Squad!

Last week's poll asked "What did you think of Brightest Day overall?"

Last Place with 20% - "I loved it!" - See DC, the minority of the vote.
First Place with 40% - Tie between "It was...Okay" and "I hated it!!!" Not good for a big year long crossover DC...

  1. Hurray, great to see the Top 5 back! I may be on my own here but I like Barry being alive, I just think it's about time Wally showed up again!

    In the same way, I love Jaime as Blue Beetle but I'd love to see Ted back in action too.

  2. Alright, where do I begin! I didn't think I could pick characters who were already on Slade's Titans team, so I left off Cheshire and Roy, who I probably would have picked. Oh, and I LOVED the idea of Anarky on that team! He'd be PERFECT!

    For some reason I get the feeling people want to see Wally West used more often... I don't know why I feel that way, I just do... :P

    No, the X-Men Holocaust villain, JT! He was supposedly Apocalypse's some from the Age of Apocalypse world, and he was all sorts of awesome!

    Glad to see I could have just kept using Jason Todd with no problems! Next time I will! And I'm serious, I really just wanted to say Saint Barry all five times in the staying dead category...

    Oh, and I didn't bother to vote in the poll, because I'm not looking forward to any of them! Where's the “None of the Above” choice?! :P

  3. Glad you're happy with the Top Five returning guys. I wouldn't mind Barry if he wasn't EVERYWHERE but he's phased Wally out, hell I wouldn't even mind if Wally was just on the JLA or something but he's barely been seen since Barry returned.

    I was thinking we couldn't so after I made my picks I figured if no one else did I'd just replace Arsenal but since I never stated we couldn't I saw some of his other Titans get picked so I just stuck with it.

    Well excussse me X! We don't all read X-Men :P And I know you would've picked Barry five times because I recall you picking someone else five times for another category ya cheater! And I really meant to add a N/A choice but I couldn't find a pic, but I'm gonna add one now, lol.

  4. I too am glad to see the Top 5 return!

    I didn't even realize Holocaust was dead, X...though I did wonder why no one had used him in a while! As long as we're clarifying things, I should probably note that when I said I'd like to write Dracula, I meant the Marvel version of the character!

    Also, I would read a comic book called "Jason Frigging Todd."

  5. Well, what would a comment session be without me coming in days late, lol.

    And I'll hop on the bandwagon too, glad to see Top 5 is back. It's a little easier since I've read more comics and gotten to know characters better.

    I'm already anxiously waiting for the next Top 5 Five post.
