I'm going to go with a book that was both the silver lining to a storm of awful happening in the DC universe, and also the book that managed to make Captain Cold awesome.





Final Crisis: Rogues Revenge

Well, Geoff Johns already made Captain Cold awesome on his Flash run, but I'll let it slide.

For my thrid pick I am going with

Kick ***

A shockingly well written story and a nice what if scenario.

For my last pick I am gonna piggy back the Sin City selection earlier and go with the story I liked better.
That Yellow *******

For my last pick I'm going with something a little different than the previous picks. A little tale about life and Death:



Death: The High Cost of Living

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

And now for something completely different.



Ranma 1/2: Martial Rhythmic Gymnastics (Vol. 2 Part 9 to Vol. 3 Part 5)





This is a six-chapter series in the Ranma 1/2 manga. Sure, only Ranma 1/2 fans will know what I'm talking about, but I just have to slip some manga into the mix.

I was starting to get worried that someone kidnapped the real Mirai.

Gotta be honest, I'm **** outta ideas. Time for internet research!

They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

Some tough choices to make got a few comic book stories that were not selected to choose from. However in the end I'll go with my gut and so for my final pick I choose






Marvel comics Annihilation

Found a few good ones, but I'll go with Batman: Year One.

jeebus I foresee a lot of coin flips for me in this one. There are simply to many good choices. I think this is the first draft I have seen without any throw away picks.

That would be considered cruel and unusual punishment for the rest of us.

I'll start it a little later today. Yesterday was the birthday of my little sister who died so I wasn't in the mood to do much.

Wow....No Hush? No Long Halloween? No Justice?

Still a lot of good picks though. Should be interesting.

Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

I thought about picking the Long Halloween but had too many other things I wanted to pick - and we had enough Batman for one draft.
