Ahhhh YES! The good Doctor makes his Hyper Combo Wallpaper debut as drawn by President Nelson and colored by, well... yours truly!!! Yes, yes, I know how excited this makes you. I understand... it is very exciting.
You know who else is excited? Doctor Doom. Yep, Victor von Doom loves being a special character in Marvel Super Heroes. On the PS1, beat the game with any character and go to the character selection screen. Go to Captain America. Tap "down" twice and hold it. Then hit and hold the following buttons in this order (while holding "down"): "light kick," "medium kick," and "hard kick." VOILA! Pure Doom. He's also in MvC2, but you know how I feel about THAT game...
Thanks to deviantART for hosting the account that delivered us this wonderful image. Amen. Be back here next Monday for a new Hyper Combo Wallpaper!
Note: Paul Tobin has never endorsed, nor does he intend to endorse, nor has he... to the best of our knowledge... ever even used a golden chamber pot.
With that said, comic book creator Paul Tobin talks about his scriptwriting method, working with artists including Matteo Lolli and Jacopo Camagni and (his wife) Colleen Coover and Patrick Scherberger, editors including Nate Cosby, Doctor Doom and the Masters of Evil #3, writing Spider-Man vs. writing Hulk, and Marvel Adventures Avengers and Marvel Adventures Super Heroes comics. This is part 1 of 3 of our Paul Tobin interview series!
When Paul is done, the golden chamber pot arrives. Neal has outgrown Del tha Funkee Homosapien, the 80s synth funk group D Train is the one for Nick, Justique is feeling the electronica of Glitch Mob and their side projects including Nasty Ways (makers of the Lil Wayne Lollipop remix), Nick was let down by MPLSoUND and Lotusflow3r by Prince, and Neal has weird feelings about SuChin Pak.
I command you heathens to VOTE FOR DOOM!
Vote for Doom! He's in a heated battle against Batman in the DC/Marvel March Madness Tournament over at Comics Should Be Good!.
C'mon, AudioShocker readers!!! Don't let Victor von Doom lose to a pretty boy punk like Bruce Wayne. Lay the smackdown with your votes!
And remember folks... the concept behind choosing the winner in the CSBG! March Madness Tournament isn't "Who would beat who in a fight?" but rather "Who is the best character?" (Which, obviously, is Doctor Doom.)
[Note: The image attached to this post? You'll be seeing more of it soon in an upcoming Hyper Combo Wallpaper!]
This is the list that almost wasn't. I was ready to make this yet another "the Top 9 reasons the list I said would happen isn't going to happen," but I stuck it out and here it is.
9. Blob - Would you want to get stuck in this man's folds? I don't think so. Last thing I would want is to be smothered by Fred Duke's fat.
8. Morlun - I've never been more afraid for the safety of a superhero than when Morlun showed up in Amazing Spider-Man and beat the snot out of Spidey.
7. Mystique - A terrorist sociopath that can change her appearance at will. She's intelligent, cunning, violent, and amoral.
6. Sabretooth - Every year, Sabretooth hunts Wolverine down and beats him within an inch of his life. Then Victor Creed goes off and murders someone Wolvie loves.
5. Venom - Now that Mac Gargan bites off limbs and other body parts from other people when he gets hungry, I'm feeling pretty intimidated.
4. Magneto - I fear Magneto's deep convictions. He has the will and physical power to act upon whatever he believes to be right (even if it means death and destruction).
3. Cassandra Nova - Charles Xavier strangled his twin sister to death in the womb, but she survived. Then she savagely massacred 16 million mutants using Sentinels assembled from pieces of scrap.
2. Joker - One minute he could be laughing with you and the next minute he could be torturing you to death. Plus, he enjoys it when Batman beats his face in.
1. Doctor Doom - Victor Von Doom is a mad scientist monarch that's a true master of robotics and disguise (via his Doombots). He's violent, deceptive, and brilliant. Plus, he's into magic and he can time travel.
Common themes? Five out of nine villains predominantly tangle with the X-Men. Though I was raised on X-Men comics (and Marvel Comics, for that matter), that was a bit of a surprise to me. There's also quite a lack of DC Comics supervillains, not to mention characters from other comic book publishers (Shredder, maybe).
Next: The Top 9 Least Intimidating Supervillains!
Why the Top 9? Because 10 is too many and 9 is a better number. 3 X 3 = Awesome. Now that's what I call math.
