THIS POLL IS CLOSED. Flash wins.


The other 4 vs. 5 round 1 matchup is DC's #4 - The Flash - vs. Marvel's #5 Iron Man. Or in laymans terms, the fast guy vs. the drunk in the tin suit (actually he's much more than that but I thought that was pretty damn funny when serg first posted it so I'm blatantly stealing it here).

Cast your vote here....and ridicule everyone else. There's some talk in the "Up Next" thread on these two, although much less than Hulk vs. Wonder Woman.


Wouldn't be complete without this:

• You're voting for who you think is the greatest superhero, or the greater of the two.
  
• You can only vote once.
  
• The poll will close at noon Eastern on Sat, Nov 4, so have your vote in by then for it to count.
  
• If you're undecided, let people know that so they can try to swing you one way or the other.
  

Also...once you vote...let people know who you voted for and why so they can exalt you or wonder what you're drinking.

I was so voting for Flash up until today. Then Lucky swung me over to Iron Man's side with this very compelling case:

Iron Man (is) an alcoholic, a corporate CEO, AND a former White House Cabinet member.

Wow. Flash is screwed.

[OpTard]

iron man is also getting my vote. and why?

cuz wally is a tool.

[Batman]

Damn it, Texas. You and your good ole boy network. I voted for the Flash, because Barry is the patron saint/martyr of DC, and Wally is a cool, funny smartass. Bart... well, we'll see.

iron man's comics are boring. Flash's are always entertaining. Vote: Flash

[DevSop]

As a kid, I dressed as the Flash for Halloween, by default, that gets my vote then.

[Deleted]

I voted for Flash because I never really "got" Iron Man.

And plus, the highly-caffeinated kid in Daddy Day Care dressed up as him.

[Loki]

Taken as a whole, the Flash legacy is so much more impressive then the Tony-Rhody-Tony Iron Man one.

Flash.

[Lucky]

Iron Man bores me to tears. Always has, always will. Ultimate Iron Man in Ultimates was tolerable but I couldn't get through the first issue of his own book.

[The Canadian Content]

As a kid, DevSop dressed as the Flash for Halloween, by default, that gets my vote then.

[Ryan Who Loves Punk]

Iron Man, because in that one teen titans episode they had impulse except he was called "kid flash". And even if there is an actual superhero named kid flash, that's a retarded name. Thusly, my vote goes to iron man.

[Batman]

No, that was Wally.

[Lucky]

Oh, but Impulse was such an awesome name.

Kid Flash was the name Wally went by when he was Flash's sidekick and helped found the Titans way back when. Then he became the Flash. When Impulse joined the Titans he took on the Kid Flash mantle out of respect for the legacy and desire to one day be Flash. Yeah its a cheesy ass name but it was a sidekick in the '50s. What do you expect?

[williamssl]

It's Flash in a landslide: 79% to 21%. Flash advances to Round 2. This poll is closed.
