    You might be asking yourself, why do we have a Comic Book Character Draft?

    Allow the founder of this Draft to answer that question ...

    And, now, you might ask yourself, can a Comic Book Character Draft actually succeed?

    One successful draft is a fluke.
    Two successful drafts is a blip on the radar
    Three successful drafts, is a trend.
    Four successful drafts, we have now become a institution in the Census forum.

    The Comic Book Character Draft is here and it's here to stay!

    Welcome to the fifth installment of the Comic Book Character Draft! before we start playing, there's a few things we need to get down. First of all, there's the business of recognizing the past.

    The winner of the last draft was: BartSimpson_SithLord! As a reward, BartSimpson_SithLord got five days of colors and a title, as well as guaranteed first pick in the draft this time around. The winner this time can expect the same, as well as enshrinement into the CBD HoF.

    Speaking of which, here is that Hall of Fame:

    Darth_Deception (Winner of 1st draft)
    SLAVE2 (Winner of 2nd draft)
    Shadow_of_Durron (Winner of 3rd draft)
    BartSimpson_SithLord (Winner of the 4th draft)

    Will we add to this list? Will someone repeat? It's almost time to start finding out!

    Now, for those of you wanting to see what we've done before, check out the

    Now, some of you are familiar with these drafts games, and many of you probably aren't. Regardless, these games are fun to play, read, watch, judge, you name it!. Let us go through a quick overvi

    Good to see we are moving along here.

    Marcus, I put your name on the list just in case you wanted to GM. Since you judged in the last draft you get a reserved GM spot for this one, if you don't want to be a GM let me know and I will just remove your name.

    And remember, people, one of the new rules in this particular draft is that, if you make a crappy pick, my very good simian friend, Lucious, the Junkie Monkey, will be sent over to your place of residence, where he will promptly shave off your eyebrows with a butter knife. And I'll definitely be withholding his fix until he completes that task, so you know it'll be quick and dirty.

    So let's make sure those picks are good, okay?

    Theme picks? Well, if it's a cool theme, then you get a pass. If it's a stupid theme, however, then Lucious will arrive outside your place riding his special monkey go-kart with its tricked-out sound system that's permanently stuck blasting out Menudo songs at full volume, and then he'll just do donuts outside your front door. Oh, you might think it's cute at first, but he can go upwards of a week without rest. Lessons will be learned, believe me.

    Thank you, Peekay. I'm in there like swimwear.


    I still say we should have called it "EmpireForever Strikes Back".

    Eh, why not. I hope I make the playoffs so I don't face a game ban though.

    Most people seemed to be against the game ban, so I left it out of this draft. Moderators would have been exempt from that rule anyway, you need your account to do your job.

    We could have. :p

    The only reason I picked "Excelsior!" was because I had nothing else to use, I forgot to ask for ideas in the last thread.

    I am never wrong, changing something like that would be against my ethos and would admit imperfection on my part.
