First I'd like to thank people for the nominations. I'll say that it was unexpected, and great that I can get nominated for memeing in the OOC with Wraith.

On a random note.

So Batman appears at the end of this issue, again. I didn't pay attention to it before, I could chalk it up to the artist but what the fucks with it?

In terms of story, I like that it's wrapping up Flash War. It seems to have a nice little bow on it while opening new doors. It's certainly interesting now that Wally West 2 knows he shouldn't exist. I think they summed up Barry versus Wally quite nicely. Barry always had to be the hope whereas Wally enjoyed the thrill of being a Hero. So, i'm looking forward to seeing what happens next.[/hider]

[b]Best Character:[/b] [i][@Superboy] - Blue Beetle[/i]

NuBoy has some skills. It's nice to see someone join a RP in progress and put a lot of effort into it, I feel like there's always a stigma with Blue Beetle thanks to Kord that he needs to be lighthearted and comedic, even in Young Justice Jaime Reyes and even in some form the current Blue Beetle with Jaime alongside Ted there's a lighter tone, despite the incredibly dark and twisted stories. At the end of the day this is a teenager who has had an alien/magical artifact FUSE with his body, with the capacity of turning him into a living weapon and in some cases even take over his body.

I feel like Superboy portrays this incredibly well in the posts that he's made so far, and hope that he continues to do so. I look forward to a team up down the line. 


[b]Best Character Concept:[/b] [i][@GreenGrenade] with Green Arrow.[/i]

Okay, okay. We've not actually got any Green Arrowing yet. I like the mash of the TV/Comics and the introduction of the marvel assets. I'm looking forward to see where he goes with him, as I have enjoyed his GA in the past. Despite his similarities to various forms of media I feel like there's still a level of freshness to the character that is enjoyable... once I have more posts to read.

[b]Best Character Development:[/b] [i][@Lord Wraith] and Thor.[/i]

Most you guys know that I have a soft spot for playing Hulk, and the main reason is that is because I like illustrating the fight between the two Psyches. I've loved Wraiths posts so far with the introduction of Thor rapidly and suddenly, to then have the entire identity of Donald Blake fight back thinking it's some form of psychosis. That's the kind of depth you aren't really going to get in anything you see Marvel doing today cinematically and it's not really a concept that was played with Donald Blake in the comics. Whereas once Thors subconcious was unlocked that was pretty much it. I look forward to seeing the two fight it out more, seeing a psychiatrist try and sum up what is going on and maybe even for the two of them to have a long hard earned discussion.

[b]Best Story:[/b] [@Simple Unicycle]

I really like Punishers 'Origin'. I have to mention [@Byrd Man] here too as I love how they can go and have such a structured story, which is something I personally don't like doing but love to see. I like that each one of their arcs, while interconnected, stands so strong on their own and Unis origin is a perfect example of this. You immediately know what's going on, and while a lot of it is action and killing as would be expected from the Punisher you really get to delve deep into where he's at mentally.  You really start to feel his struggle towards the end.

[b]Best Post:[/b] [@HenryJonesJr]

So I really enjoyed one of Henrys posts in particular, [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/4713112]This one[/url] where Gwen faces off against the enforcers. I personally always worry about action scenes, but Henry makes them fluid and fun to read. Kudos dear Henry, need I say anymore?

[b]The John Lees Memorial MVP Award:[/b] I need to get real and say [@Morden Man]. I don't know what he's been like to other people but to me he's been a serious help throughout this Roleplay. He's given me advice on what to do with my posts, how to maybe not take the physics so seriously because it's a comic book RP and really a lot of shit. He'll know better than everyone here, like everyone else I don't tend to like my posts but he's always got my back, and helps me out.

From what I've seen he also does it for other people, and his Fantastic Four really add an interesting dynamic to the roleplay as a whole. Whether these Four make it backt o their own Earth at the end of Year One, or move home I don't know. I look forward to it either way.
