Favorite winner from previous years







View Results
And it's back!

The character must have premiered in the year of the contest (2017), though there are exceptions.

-Characters who premiered in literature or comics are eligible based on their film/tv/game appearances.
-Characters who premiered in media appearances may be considered new if the interpretation of the character is new (ex. Gotham's "Batman" characters) but only that particular version of the character is eligible.
-Characters who premiered in other countries first will go by their first release date, regardless of when it premiered in America.

Yeah, those rules are always gonna have some detractors (and I'll admit that it's not a perfect rule) but we're 8 years in now so let's just roll with it.

-Each user gets 10 nominations every 24 hours.
-Please specify what each nomination is from
-3 nominations will guarantee a character gets in
-More than 3 nominations will get the characters higher seeding
-First 64 characters with 3 or more will make it in.

Any questions, just ask

If it's not acceptable I'll change my nomination to:

That one. If you've played the game you know which one that is.

Baby Groot (Guardian of the Galaxy 2)

This is the first one I think I'm gonna have to turn down. Baby Groot is definitely still the same character as the original Groot, and he even appeared in baby form in the original movie

Man I know it's against my own rules, but I'll allow it, seeing as there were no Persona nominees last year and it's already like the most popular nominee. I'll admit it's definitely a game associated with this year

Wonder Woman and The Flash wouldn't count (due to BvS), but Aquaman and Cyborg would, as well as anyone from Wonder Woman aside from Diana

I'd think no based on that (Mike had the same issue, appearing as a nameless cameo in 2009 before becoming a series regular in 2010).

But I'll let anyone who knows more about Doctor Who than I do weigh in
