CP Superhero Draft - FINISHED!!!

[Coach]

Most of the rules are pretty self explanatory. One I thought I should mention to avoid confusion is this. Different people is still the same hero. For example there are I think 4 different guys who were Robin. But once Robin is chosen that's it. You can't take "Dick Grayson" Robin or whatever. The Alternate version is more to do with the hero who has been changed or altered in some way that makes him different from his original form. Whether thats a new suit or a genetic mutation or what.

AK = Ass Kicked. You get skipped, next person can pick and you just throw your pick out there whenever you get back. Which, it seems, will happen for the first pick of this draft.

[Superflyer]

Even before a pick is made the draft is down in flames

[Prototype]

This would be a first... the first overall pick AK'd.

Legen... wait for it... I hope you're not lactose intollerant cause the next word is DAIRY!!!

[StrayBullet]

With the 1st pick in the CP Superhero Draft, StrayBullet proudly selects, Superman. Superman will fulfill the Male Hero category.



The definition of "super hero". The original super being with super powers. Every other comparison is just a rich mogul with cool toys or armor or some mad, scientifical experiment gone wrong.
No other superhero has consistently maintained his/her relevance in the world over the last 80 years. The main premise of his life, his ability, his character and determination has always been the same. Adjustments and gimmicks by poor writers may have skewed the opinion but throughout that, Superman has always remained true.
If it weren’t for Superman, there wouldn’t be an entire genre of superhero stories – every single tights-and-powers character who has come along after him is defined by how similar or how different they are from Kal El (-Empire Magazine).
And besides, he shoots lasers from his eyes!! No one can stop that!

[Coach]

1 min after AK time lol

[StrayBullet]

I know... Sorry about that, everyone. I was so focused on my turn in the Hockey Draft and I was too into the hockey game and Lakers game, I completely overlooked this draft.

Hockey Draft - Believable
Hockey Game - Believable
Lakers Game - Now I know you are lying.

If Troutman picks who I want to pick I'm going to yell at Troutman.

He's already gonna yell at YOU for capitalizing his name. Dude hates that.

[troutman]

I select in the Male Hero category, the King of Wakanda, T'Challa, THE BLACK PANTHER:

http://www.marvel.com/universe/Black_panther

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Panther_(comics)

The Black Panther (T'Challa) is a fictional character in the Marvel Comicsuniverse. He is the first modern Blacksuperhero.[citation needed] Created by writer-editor Stan Lee and penciller-co-plotter Jack Kirby, he first appeared in Fantastic Four #52 (July 1966). Although there have been numerous men who have used the Black Panther identity during the history of the Marvel Universe, this article refers solely to the modern-day Black Panther, also known by his birth name, T'Challa.

Dwayne McDuffie on the 1970s "Black Panther" series: "This overlooked and underrated classic is arguably the most tightly written multi-part superhero epic ever. If you can get your hands on it (and where's that trade paperback collection, Marvel?), sit down and read the whole thing. It's damn-near flawless, every issue, every scene, a functional, necessary part of the whole. Okay, now go back and read any individual issue. You'll find seamlessly integrated words and pictures; clearly introduced characters and situations; a concise (sometimes even transparent) recap; beautifully developed character relationships; at least one cool new villain; a stunning action set piece to test our hero's skills and resolve; and a story that is always moving forward towards a definite and satisfying conclusion. That's what we should all be delivering, every single month. Don McGregor and company did it in only 17 story pages per issue".[63]

Journalist Joe Gross praised Christopher Priest for his characterization of the Black Panther, stating, that the writer "turned an underused icon into the locus of a complicated high adventure by taking the Black Panther to his logical conclusion. T'Challa (the title character) is the enigmatic ruler of a technologically advanced, slightly xenophobic African nation, so he acts like it". Gross applauded the title's "endless wit, sharp characterization, narrative sophistication and explosive splash panels".[28]

The Black Panther was my favorite hero growing up in the 1970s. Volume 2 in the 1990s by Christopher Priest is considered a landmark series.

He is the current King of Wakanda, a technologically advanced African nation. He has been a member of the Avengers. T'Challa is currently in a coma - a new Black Panther (female) may take his place. Is it his wife Storm? His action figure is on my desk at work. Fans are critical of the new writer Reg Hudlin for breaking with continuity.

History: T'Challa is the son of T'Chaka, late king of the African nation Wakanda. When lawless ivory hunter Ulysses Klaw murdered T'Chaka in an attempt to possess the country's rare Vibranium deposit, a grief-stricken T'Challa swore vengeance and succeeded in thwarting the butcher's raid. In the process, the young prince destroyed Klaw's hand.

Educated at the finest schools in Europe and America, T'Challa returned to his homeland bearing a degree in physics and ready to assume the mantle of leadership. To do so required he pass two tests: defeat six of Wakanda's greatest warriors in unarmed combat, and obtain the secret heart-shaped herb that grants the country's chieftains their powers. Successfully carrying out the dual challenge, T'Challa donned the ceremonial garb of the Black Panther, totem of the Wakandan people.

Wait NO snaking draft order?

Oh dear....

[SportsJunky]

Nice pick troutman. I'm sure T'Challa would have lasted a few rounds but that is the beauty of this draft. You pick who meant the most to you.

[Ronald Pagan]

I'll probably have to pick after work. 4 Mountain time.

[Prototype]

Just post who you want. Fill in later.
