I think this just prooves there sould be a licence to vote, not just in silly inconsequential things like political elections, but also for serious matters like ultimate badass polls.

Maybe we should discount the votes of anyone with less than £1000 worth of comics in their collection?

Seriously though, I'd be very interested in seeing how many people who voted actually collect comics, vs those who've seenthe movies vs those that have heard of the characters!!!

Anyone want to comment?

I didn't vote 'cos I had no idea who 1/2 the people on the original list were *wears non-nerd hat*

But I would have voted for Blade over the other one in this round 'cos he was hot in the movies

I collect comics.

Just thought I'd add this

New poll....

'Do you collect comics?'

I don't read comics and so only know these two from their films and stuff I've heard from comic-readers.

Well I collect comics, but then I dont get to vote so...

For the record I think it would have been a lot closer battle than many people have made out, especially if Balde was wise enough to go in unarmed, and weve seen just how good at surviving impalements he is in the film (that spike table, ouch).

In the end tho I think Magneto would have taken it.

you could argue that as all of the Badasses that were in the original list have appeared in films or tvshows (some of them not appeared in comic form as far as im aware) that we were talking about the filmed versions of these characters.

I have collected comics from time to time and have heard of all the people on the original list.

To be honest if Blade had gone in unarmed Magneto couldn't have used his powers against Blade, especially seeing as how blades Vampirisms is caused in part by deficient haemoglobin, hence less Iron in his blood. I don't think Blade could have taken Magneto down though, as Magneto would most likely have realised he couldn't win and simply levitated off, but then he would have forfited wouldn't he?

I'm not a comic collector, but I am an avid reader.
I mostly scrounge off anyone I know who does collect them, & I go to this little shop I know in camden & read my way around the room - I do occassionally buy, too. I don't think they'd let me browse as much as I do otherwise

/me demands a recount.. well, at least a few more voters..

I would have said Blade anyway cause he's cooler and more agile in the fight. What can I say, I prefer my combat a little more hands on.

Magneto is a great bad guy, but I don't think he would beat Blade

/me collects comics (since just after Spidey movie came out)... where the hell's the geek smilie, dammit? Oh well, I'll just use this one instead -->

/me also demands (albeit selective) recount...

Dubya warning ^

Can we have a site members badass thingy now? that sounded funky

You could pick key members or staff or sommit and have a couple of fights a week so it gives people time to vote

And we don't mean hypothetical fights like with the superhero one, we want members of staff to actually have a brawl to the death every week!

Magneto so should have won this cos he can fly to get out of the way of Blade. i'm right, everyone else who voted for Blade is wrong.

So there
