Category Winners
Top Character we want rebooted by DC - Wonder Woman (Sad she just got one a year ago...)
Top Character we don't want rebooted by DC - I counted votes for Bruce and Dick, so Batman wins.
Top Character we would send from Marvel to DC - Black Widow
Top Character we would send from DC to Marvel - Bart Allen
Top Non-DC or Marvel Comic Series - Invincible
We had some real dark horse winners this go around. I'm pretty surprised that Wonder Woman won for character we want rebooted, yet at the same time I'm not. If this was about two months ago I'd have figured Wonder Woman a shoe-in, but considering we've got an armless Roy Harper, Slade missing two-eyes, and a few other characters I figured Wonder Woman wouldn't be at the top of the list. Batman doesn't surprise me since everyone seems to like where he is, meaning Bruce and Dick. Black Widow coming to DC would be interesting, I'd probably reboot the Birds and put Huntress, Cheshire, Black Widow, Oracle and Canary on the team. Bart going to Marvel would be really interesting, especially as an adult like X mentioned, I'd love to see him run into Spider-Man and a few other Marvel guys and gals. And Invincible winning doesn't shock me at all, as it's clearly one of, if not THE best comic series going right now. But that's it for me everyone, thanks for participating in this month's Top Five 5. Until next time, I'm your friendly neighborhood Blogger-Man, Jason Todd, signing off, You stay classy Todd Squad!
Interesting choices all 'round!
ReplyDeleteI chose the Thing 'cos he's the guy who's everyone's pal in the Marvel Universe so it would be great to see him in a superhero community where he didn't know anyone. Also, we used to discover the Marvel Universe through Thing's eyes with Marvel Two In One, it'd be great to see the DCU through his eyes too.
How about next time we have a Green Lantern themed Top 5 in honour of the movie? Top 5 non-human Green Lanterns, Top 5 Green Lantern Writers, Top 5 GL Artists, Top 5 GL series or stories, Top 5 non-DC characters who you'd like to see as Green Lanterns etc etc.
That does sound like an interesting pick now that you explain it Paul, plus Thing would be kind of a one of a kind character in DC, I don't think anyone else is like him there, outside of that Green Arrow villain.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea Paul, thanks for letting me steal it. :P I don't know how many of my readers read that much GL so I may just use the characters you'd like to see as GL's, but I could do one for DC and one for Non-DC.
Also, I was thinking about making the Top 5 Bi-Monthly instead of monthly, anyone in favor of that?
I laughed pretty hard at the: "Wonder Woman (Sad she just got one a year ago...)" line... It's both funny AND true! :D
ReplyDeleteIt seems most of us really want to see Wally and/or Bart get used more... Too bad I have a feeling the opposite is gonna happen... I don't know how DC is going to rationalize keeping Bart around if they're trying to make Barry seem younger... Having a grandson hanging around is the opposite of making somebody seem young... :/
I really liked Paul's logic for the Superman/Lex Luthor reboots... Whatever they decide to do with those characters origins, they REALLY need to make a concentrated effort to stick with it! Of course they won't though...
What's the shocking part of Morning Glories making my list, JT? That I read it, or that it made the list?
I am also pretty shocked at Wonder Woman being the top choice for reboot, lol. And this round of Top 5 was definitely interesting. It's nice to see the diversity of characters.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the next round!!
X - Lol it's sad but true. And yeah, I'm hoping Wally and Bart are used more, I mean... that's an excellent point about Barry too, so here's hoping Bart stays relevant, I'd hope him having a mini in Flashpoint could help that, and I'm also hoping they don't kill the character off for the second time.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, I couldn't agree more with Paul, Superman has SO many damn origins, two that just concluded LAST YEAR, yet it's being retconned already for no reason.
The fact you READ it X, it took you for goddamn ever...
Falisha - Thanks Lisha :) I love how sometimes everyone's votes are on the same page, and other times we're all thinking totally different things.
So yay or nay on two Top Fives a month?
I'm actually a bit surprised to see an adult Jason in the new DCU... That means Bruce has gone through at least three Robins that we know of(Dick, Jason and Damian), which really doesn't make him look all that much younger... And the thing with Bart kind of scares me, because let's face it, this whole reboot is a way to make Saint Barry look younger, so I fear the most for Bart(and to a lesser extent Wally).
ReplyDeleteYes I read it. Now I just have to read issues 7-9 so I can review issue #10 later this week...
