Cool, seems like 3 good choices there, although I really didnt think Domino would rank so highly, but I am very pleased with Avalanche and Arachne.<br /><br />Personally would have preferred others. Cant remember who I voted for now, how many choices did we have?<br /><br />Cant believe howard the duck got so many votes!<br /><br />And poor one-of-three.

The X-Books are a popular subsection for Marvel. Why do you think they publish so many of them. If people are going to support the line, why should they be punished for liking a group of characters that some don't. I am not a big Spider-Man or FF fan. I don't tend to complain about those characters showing up on the expansion. Sure, they don't get as many representations. But Spidey only has a couple books, and the FF only has one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-87658625244684532472010-09-03T07:21:10.807+01:002010-09-03T07:21:10.807+01:00I find myself agreeing with both PA and CBR Beast....I find myself agreeing with both PA and CBR Beast. One thing I did notice is that if you count the first twenty names in the poll, nine are mutants. I'm no mathematician but that's nearly 50 per cent. I didn't say anything before as I didn't want to be a spoilsport or seem as if I disagreed with the democractic way that the characters were chosen. That said, though, you'd have to agree that's almost one in two being from one 'family' is a lot. Under that bias, it would be understandable to rename the collection "The X-Men and Other Marvel Characters Collection".<br /><br />P.S. I am still available for hugs, PA.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08802582369684451770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-19533892370280029102010-09-03T03:40:03.293+01:002010-09-03T03:40:03.293+01:00Again, the X-Men and Avengers spheres still have t...Again, the X-Men and Avengers spheres still have the largest groups of prominant characters who haven't made yet. So 5 of each group per expansion makes perfect sense. Especially when you consider all of the secondary teams in each group.<br /><br />For the X-Men you have X-Factor, X-Force, Excalibur, New Mutants, New X-Men, Exiles. Not to mention Wolverine and all his related baddies.<br /><br />For Avengers, you have the various Avengers teams. Not to mention Cap, Iron Man, and Thor's rogues.
