Wow! Just looking through the pages, there are alot of Superheroes I had never heard of! I'm not a comic book person but perhaps I should look into it a bit more!

Thanks everyone!

Now we should all build our ultimate team, make a limit of number of people, say 11 or so, list your characters and explain what role they are to fill.

Not in a draft style, but just for fun style?

Should we draw up some boundaries for what requirements your choices should fill?

I missed my alternate version pick, but I never really understood what that category includes.

How about Ultimate Spiderman?

Yeah, understandable. I only made a last minute decision to read Watchmen before I was going to see the movie, so almost all of my picks were made when I found out about Rorschach's awesomeness

ok I will be the first to post my all-star team. You can put your own picks in your team if you want, because sometimes it has merit.

Male Hero: Batman (Sportsjunky)
Female Hero: Wonderwoman (MattyC)
Male Villain: The Joker (Superflyer)
Female Villain: Mystique (Prototype)
Movie: Tie! Iron Man & Dark Knight (Straybullet & IgnitedSoul)
Costume: Spawn (Resalien)
Sidekick: Robin (MattyC)
Alternate: The Phoenix (Tiger)
Gadget: Iron Man's Suit (Ronald Pagan)
Canadian: Wolverine (Ronald Pagan)
Wildcard: Goku (Straybullet) Huge DBZ fan gotta take him!

If I had another Wildcard: Gohan (He was the most powerful and the first to discover the second level of Super Saiyan. Damn I'm a nerd)

I must admit that Spider Ham had crossed my mind for alternate as well...

That border is classic. I remember I had a Transformers comic with the same border.

Guess I'll throw together an allstar team. I'll limit it to one pick from my team.

Male Hero: Ghost Rider (Pagal)
Female Hero: She Hulk (Stray)
Male Villain: Tie - Darkseid (SJ) Joker (Superflyer)
Female Villain: Mystique (Proto)
Movie adaptation: Sin City (Ronald Pagan)
Best Costume: Flash (Pagal)
Sidekick: Bob, Agent of Hydra (Blaster86)
Alternate Version: Archangel (IgnitedSoul)
Weapon: Captain America's Shield (Tiger)
Canadian Character: Sasquatch (Me) Wolverine's too easy. He's like the Yankees of comic book characters.
Wildcard: The Saint of Killers (Me) Fine. I lied.

As I was driving on the highway I was thinking about this draft and some popular characters that didn't get selected. A few that surprised me were Daredevil, Thing and Kingpin.

Any nonselections that surprised anyone else?

I was a bit surprised Blade wasn't picked as movie adaptation. I thought the first one was 100 times better than most comic book movies. With the eclectic group here, I was sure someone else would pick a Preacher character, either Jesse Custer or Cassidy as good guys or Herr Starr as villain.

I'm surprised the Human Torch didn't go, he was one of the oldest Marvel hero's. Also, thought more transformers would have ended up in the mix.
