Weekly Question Marvel Bracket Round One Match Five 04/15/15
Marvel and DC, continuing to make things easy for my image searches. This week brings us a battle we’ve seen before as the number five seed, Thor:
Takes on the number thirteen seed, the Silver Surfer:
Strangely, many of these Silver Surfer covers are all over Pintrest. Now, these are the way these two characters look in the 2000’s, however, I would be remiss to not include one of the most iconic covers of all time:
I don’t think this cover could cause any issues among anyone online.
Thor wins, 16 to 11
Perhaps you don’t want to contribute to the poll, that’s cool. You do your thing. You can tweet your choice. Just don’t forget the hashtag #LBHQuery so I can track them down easier and we’ll go from there!
Next week, we’re taking a break from the bracketing and doing a classic question, the old school Longbox Heroes way.
For me it could have gone either way, Right now I cringe at what is happening with surfer. How can we get such great stories for Spider-man and then when it comes to the surfer, we get what is half-assed stories. Really?? The surfer played dead as his powers were stripped away from Galactus? An omnipotent god like creature was fooled by rolling your eyes back?
And Jason Aaron is rocking Thor right now. I never could stand Thor until this Jason started with the god butcher. Since then he has been nothing short of awesome. Still when I look at the whole body of work, the 90’s surfer was so good for so long. Because of that I give the nod to Radd.
