Everyone can vote for these playoff match-ups (even if you didn't participate in the draft). Don't be shy!

Feel free to back-up your rationale here.

GW#3. Didn't really like the Donkey Kong pick, as different as all these picks like DK and Spongebob etc. were, none of them really stand a chance against the competition. Anyway, I like GW#3's team, but honestly...I've never even heard of anyone on jalfa's team

DK is sick, what are you talking about. I liked the idea of Anton Chigurh wandering the halls of the death star with his little air gun.

Now this would have been a match up where I voted in Jalfa's favor simply because of the write-up, but I'd also like to reward GW3 for the imagery of Dr. Doom in the Death Star.

So after giving points to Jalfa for the write-up, I still like the match ups better for GW#3. Also, Galactus eats planets and Hades probably wouldn't want to live in space, so I'm not even sure they are present. Galactus can always show up, however, and swing the battle in the favor of GW3, so I reluctantly give him my vote.

I pick Jalfa because I know who all those baddies are, and they are seriously bad. Besides, GW3 kidnapped the deathstar out of the garage!

And once again, the obscurity of my picks spells my undoing. Oh, well. I would still like to point out that two of my opponents picks aren't even evil -three, depending on the version of Donkey Kong (he's also a hero sometimes ) and three of them don't have any powers whatsoever. Nevermind that Fantomas would have no problem at all circumventing the laughable security of the Death Star and could blow it up from the inside (what's the obsession with the thing anyway? it has massive weaknesses that don't appear to be hard to exploit and can hardly be called effective).

Bump. Still a few hours to vote for your favorite team .
