Wow I can't believe it lasted long enough for me to pick:



Watchmen


@Quasadu

"We must prepare for DOOM and hope for FREEM." - SirFrederick

I really thought this was gonna be the very first pick.

The Killing Joke

I chose this because it set the stage for the Batman Series for a time to come. I was impressed at how Babs grew into the Oracle from the incident in this.

My second pick is a love story and explains the origin of my all time fav villainess

Mad Love

I love how it showed that Harley is a perfectly capable villain in her own right and that Joker does really love her.

Dammit! That was going to be my number 2. I really thought I was going to get my first two picks without a problem. And since Identity Crisis has been taken, I have to go straight to my number four:



Kraven's Last Hunt



Edit: Also I want to add - this draft is already epic and we're just barely into the second round of picks. ;thumbsup

Well if you did not take Watchmen I was going to.

I was wondering if that series had some secret popularity that I hadn't noticed...

Couldn't really find a wiki link for this next pick, but I'm going with Marvel Comic's The Death of Captain Marvel graphic novel.

I just think you like the word infinite.

Also may my jealous rage of not being able to have that pick make you all warm and fuzzy :P
