Lot's of people are crying over their pet villain not making the cutoff. So I'm taking the next 4 vote getters for each of Marvel and DC and having a minbracket tournament for them to crown the Also-Ran Villain Champion! Voting will begin this weekend!

Fuck yeah. Carnage all the way!!!

Still no Loki. You guys suck.

[williamssl]

You were the only one to vote for Loki. Even if I made the also-rans the next 8 on either side (in effect another full blown tourney), Loki still wouldn't have made the cut. We at least picked up Poison Ivy who you voted for though.

Oh, I get how you made up the second bracket. The "you guys suck" was aimed at the initial voting. I refuse to accept that that many people thought Galactus was a better villain than Loki. It's baffling.

Maybe we should've allowed characters from the Amalgam Universe, because we would've gotten the #1 Marvel combined with the #9 DC.

Dr. Doomsday!

[Batman]

Man, Doomsday and Carnage both suck hard. This will be the first match-up I opt out of through simple lack of interest. Red Skull has got to destroy whichever of the two of those make it to the semis.

That guy is clearly a combo of not just Doomsday and Doom but also this goofy looking guy:



Wait, I get it. There was also an amalgam of Black Racer and Silver Surfer, and Dr. Doomsday has stolen his powers. Man, I'm scaring myself now.

[Loki]

Ah, the fantabulous 80s. When most black villians or heroes had to have a "black" somewhere in their name. You know, in case we missed that they were black.

Why was there never just a guy called "Blackman"?

Because there was never just a guy called "Man".

Well, the wrestling world had "Woman", though.

[Batman]

You can find just about anything on the internet.

I was half expecting this:

I stand fully, fully corrected.

[Batman]

Oh, and while there were no "Man" or "Woman" in superhero comics that I can think of, there was a "Him" and a "Her."

[Krydor]

Ok, but is there a Chinaman?

[williamssl]

Looks like he's a supporting character.
