Again, our personal preferences for who our favorite characters are :

My Final Four from this set up are Dr. Doom, Iron Man, Daredevil and Green Arrow with Dr. Doom being my favorite.

Tough calls included Batman – She-Hulk, Superman – Iron Man, Thing – Beast, Thing – Iron Man, Dr. Doom – Batman, Spider-Man – Thor, Guy Gardner – Thor, Lex Luthor – Daredevil, Joker – Aquaman, Green Arrow – Nick Fury

I wish Marvel & DC would get back to doing crossovers with each other. Those were great.

I used some rules to winnow to the final four like “highest last letter of the superhero name” and “lowest first vowel of the real name”, deciding ties by coin flips. Different rule each round.

Final Four: Wolverine, Daredevil, Nova, and Oracle.

Decided the rest by coin flips.

Winner: Wolverine (James Howlett)

He really is the best there is at what he does, I guess.

And I apologize in advance if you were just curious where those characters would be if this were a DC/Marvel/Image/Dark Horse tournament. Lost my impulse control for a few seconds.

I’m just wondering where Hellboy , Cerberus, or Spawn would fit into this.

So today begins Comics Should Be Good DC/Marvel Comic Character Tournament!

Somewhere in there.

Darkseid is a 12 seed? Silver Surfer is an 8?

Well observed.

The seedings all come directly from how they were ranked in the Top DC/Marvel Characters Poll from late 2007.

I like that you said the Joker will win Scotty360 even though I think you’re wrong.

I would also like to revise my predictions and say Spider-man instead of Wonder Woman, but I still think Batman will win it all. So:

Batman
Superman
Oracle
Spider-man

Batman wins it all

Daredevil
Green Arrow

I think all the number one seeds are going to make it into the final four, with the winner being Batman. Although I think that Doom, Joker, and Death all have potential for some upsets.
