Round 1, Match 10 results
When I first paired the Match 10 combatants, I knew next-to-nothing about the Voice. Basically, I jus thought he was like a crime-fighting ventriloquist. Up against that, a quirky-looking martial artist like Osakan Riot would seem to have a pretty good chance...
But then I read the Voice's inaugural adventure in Amazing Comics #22. In it, not only does the Voice single-handedly taken on a large group of thugs (in contrast to Osakan Riot, who shows up to help Miss Melee take down a gang) but to top it off, the guy can blast bad guys out of trees and even collapse a building by "throwing his voice in a loud roar"!?
I'm guessing this assessment was universal, as the feedback I got from a few Facebook polls uniformly gave the win to the Voice. The people have spoken, Voice goes to the next round!
Round 1, Match 11
Week 11 brings us another showdown between the Big Two houses of Comicdom as Marvel's lady Mockingbird takes on DC's Jason Bourne-esque adventurer, Nemesis. Who would win this battle of the super sexes?
