I vote for Carver. He's not the judge we deserve, but the one we need.

I change my nominations to quan, carver and h1.Clearly, they're the best options available for judge material on this thread.
I think a lot of poster could be judges as long as they don't judge for characters they champion or characters they dislike openly.
Many of the choices seem reasonable posters.
My only concern will be if they will have enough time to judge, like the MODS, they are already have their plate full with their Mod duties.
a lot of the posters in this thread seem reasonable choices to judge IMO.
Anyhow, hopefully this will be decided soon enough so We can get at each other throats again. 😛
Myth:
Monarch's detonation at the end of Countdown #13 destroyed the entirety of universe-51, leaving only a blank void of nothingness in its wake:

It was later revealed in Superman Beyond #1 that universe-51, while apparently lifeless, was not entirely destroyed-- the physical components of said universe still appeared to be intact, at least.
Earth-51(the planet on which Monarch detonated, mind you) was still very much intact when Superman and Ultraman dropped the Monitor ship there-- it was just devoid of life, is all:

If the planet on which Monarch's detonation originated was still intact, it's hard to imagine any other planets--or stars--or solar systems--or galaxies-- being destroyed by said detonation. The point of origin *should* have contained the most potent energies, after all.
Thoughts? I just stumbled on this myself.

Are we sure Monarch detonated in Earth-51? I can't remember a specific reference.
Originally posted by CogitoMonarch's detonation in universe-51 was still canon in FC. It is the reason Nix Uotan(the Monitor/protector of universe-51) was banished from the Monitor race during FC #1, and why Nix later commented that he was rebuilding earth/universe-51 during FC #7.
Final Crisis was kind of a disaster. Little of Countdown seemed to be in continuity with FC/SB. That's all I can rationalize it as.
Myth:
Superman one-shotted a Quantum Zealot on his own:
If it wasn't apparently obvious in the scene, Superman inherited 5-D qualities when he passed through foreign dimensions. We even see an Imp being restored to a 5-D being by passing through the same dimensions:
Superman even explains how 3-D beings work in 5-D indicating that he was no longer 3-D:
And a few pages, later we see the Justice League fighting the Quantum Zealots and Superman himself describes how utterly ineffective his strength is against them:
"The Zealots are almost pure energy! There's nothing to punch--"
Once you get on their frequency/dimension/level, they are fairly easy to defeat because they have inherently low durability:
