Rumble Pants II: Final Four
What is Rumble Pants? Well, the Panteon has decided to play at god once more. We take a few select comic characters and pit them against one another for our amusement, but we figured why keep the fun all to ourselves? So we decided on a format that would require your participation and will hopefully provide amusement for you at the same time. The format is a single elimination tournament with weekly rounds decided by you, the reader. Just keep reading to help decide the ultimate fate of some of your favorite comic characters!
For simplicity’s sake we’re starting at the Sweet Sixteen stage. Just vote in each of the Villain Division match-ups and each of the Hero Division match-ups to keep your favorites in the tournament. Remember, this isn’t about who would be most likely win in each fight; it’s about who you want to win each fight and advance to the next round. Click the bracket thumbnail above to the side to see how the tournament has progressed so far. Next week will be the Championships! If you don’t see your favorite characters in the tournament, don’t worry, we’ll be doing a whole new bracket after we crown an overall champ.

QuoteHulk is extending his lead, doesn’t look for the backwards blathering babe in fishnets.
Will Beast beat the Beauty?

QuoteCome on guys, if you can’t vote for a hot gal in fisnets and top hat who can you vote for? Plus she could turn the Hulk into a big, green, furry bunny with one backwords phrase!

QuoteI love Zatanna but I wanna see Hulk/Doom. Maybe there should be an all female tournament sometime.
21 Jun 2007 at 10:20 pm
QuoteDoom Hulk huh? Two words: Bore. Ing. Wouldn’t you rather have a Magic vs. Science big exciting extravaganza? And hey, masks and fishnets liven up any occasion.
21 Jun 2007 at 10:41 pm
Quotethe thing is Doom and do magic AND science. (depending on the incarnation of course). I probably would have voted for Zatanna but I just bought Planet Hulk and have been enjoying the heck out of it. The Green Scar gets my vote!

QuoteKluh Hsams!

QuoteSo, I’ve been doing all of my voting based on which character I like best, not who would actually win the fight. However, for this final four I’m turning an eye to the final matchup and really thinking about what a fight between these characters would be like. I mean no disrespect to Zatanna & Zatanna fans, but a Doom/Zatanna battle would be horrible. Doom would destroy her. Period. Doom/Hulk? Now that’s a little murkier.
22 Jun 2007 at 1:22 pm
QuoteZatanna could totally take Doom, she wears fishnets and survived infinite crisis!
I don’t know why she isn’t beating the Hulk right now.

QuoteThanks to Brad Meltzer, no one can read “come in from behind” and “Zatanna” without thinking of… something else.

QuoteI feel dirty.

QuoteJeez, what happened to all the interesting characters like Fin Fang Foom and Purple Man? Now we’re left with Zatanna and three boring characters.
EDIT: Apologies to fans of Hulk and Doom.

QuoteFin Fang Foom is only interesting because of his giant pants and the Purple Man is just a walking date rape drug after his appearance in Alias.

QuoteIts too late to apologize, the hurt has already been done.

QuoteWhile I voted for Hulk, I predicted early on in the first week that the final battled would be between Doom and Zatanna.
And since I hate to wrong I feel I must cheer for the babe in fishnets to put the whammy on old Green Skin.
So here I go.
Let me hear you say this fight is Zatannas
Z-A-T-A-N-N-A-S
