Fantasy Comics

A little note to the participants:

Some of you have been PM'ing me with your teams. While i do recommend having an idea of who you want on your team, let me remind you characters will be seleted in a draft format. Meaning each charater will be chosen one at a time. So, yes have an idea of the team you want to put together, but have backups just in case someone else drafts your first choice. Goodluck

Red's in...

You’ve all heard about Fantasy Football; allow me to introduce Fantasy Comics. The rules are simple. There will be 10 teams, 7 characters to each team. The players will be selected from a character pool organized by position. The positions are as follows:

Powerhouse

Versatility 1

Versatility 2

Pure Brick

Mid-Tier 1

Mid- Tier 2

Street-Leveler

The owners of each team will be chosen on first come first serve bases. Each owner must create a team name. After the owners and team names have been made a random draw wi

The owners of each team will be chosen on first come first serve bases. Each owner must create a team name. After the owners and team names have been made a random draw will be done by me to select the draft order. Once the draft order has selected the draft will begin in a snake like order.

For example: 1-10, 10-1, 1-10, 10-1 etc…

After every team has drafted their 7 characters the Fantasy season will officially begin. The way this works is owners will provide either scans or written proof from feats that occurred on panel in the year 2007. Starting in January and ending in December the team with the best comic book showings will be crowned the Fantasy comics champion. Finally, I will select 4 judges at the end of the season to decide which team has the most impressive feats. This will require a lot of strategy. It’s not just about picking the most powerful character it’s about knowing which characters are currently being written well and frequently. I.E you can pick Loki (who’s powerful), but if Loki is currently dead or de-powered then you shouldn’t draft him.

Note: characters from different Universes cannot be used. I.e if you select Wolverine you cannot provide Ultimate Universe scans as proof. The following will result in a penalty. Penalties will also be issued if owners use scans from

I hope this event works out and everyone who participates has a great time.

* I will post a player pool that each team can draft from.

Wrong wrong wrong.

I never heard of fantasy football. 😎

Note to team owner:

Now that we have half the teams in, i want to let you guys decide on how the draft will be held.

My preference would be, once all the teams have been selected is to have a live draft on a specific date and time. I will create a random draft order and each team would have 2 minutes to pick their characters. There will be seven rounds. Remember the # 1 pick in the first round gets the last pick of the second round. While the last pick of the first tound gets the first pick of the second round.

For example: it goes 1-10, 10-1, 1-10, 10-1 etc...

Good plan. 👆 Question: High herald is the upper limit, but does that mean we can make all the picks (except those with a specific tier dictated) under high herald?

Because if there's no cap, there your versatile picks and your brick picks could be high herald as well as your powerhouse.

I'd like to join.

Good question: See this is where the problem comes in, and the reason i had a player pool organized by position. The problem is i dont want characters like Superman, Thor, Gladiator etc... being chosen as pure bricks. Because frankly i dont consider them pure bricks. I have them categorized under Powerhouses. So... to answer your question yes and no... For the first three (Powerhouse, Versatility 1, and Versatility 2) yes you can use anyone equal to or below high herald level. For the rest be specific to the position. Again Superman is not a pure brick... Examples of pure Bricks include Hulk, Juggernaut, Thing, Hercules, Colossus etc...

Hope that helps 🙂

I think versatility should be capped at under herald.

You mean no one under Herald right?

Any idea around when you're planning to hold this draft?
Also are we going by the sheer power of the feats, or their impressiveness in comparison with the character achieving them?

The draft time will be decided when all the teams are made

Both, there will be a point system (1-10) for each of the feats based on that characters abilities. For example if Captain America presses a car, or kicks Spidermans ass then that would be pretty high (9 or 10). Each character must participate, therefore your team must be well rounded. Judges will be picked sometime during the season.

Ok sorry guys my computer has been down for a couple of days, but its back up and running now.

Ok Grey Fox: a live draft is simple, there is a random order in which each team drafts or picks their characters. It goes 1-10 in round 1, but in round 2 10-1 (the last pick in the first round has the first pick in the second), then in round 3 its back to 1-10 round 4 10-1... get it?

In regards to how much attention this will require... not that much just post a few scans or simply state (scans would be better) feats of each of your characters. You have till December to post all the scans you want.
