Fantasy Comic League: October 2016

Deadpool is back in black and on top of the Fantasy Comic League’s most valuable character list! Matt (50 points) benefited from Deadpool’s 21-point month, but also exploited the league’s indifference to Karnak. The oft overlooked Inhuman scored a modest 11 points in his league debut, helping Matt score the monthly victory. Shaun (37 pts)…

Fantasy Comic League: September 2016

The third season of the 2016 Fantasy Comic League began the same way the second season had ended. Shaun tapped into Captain Marvel’s dominate Civil War performance to triumph over the rest of the participants. Carol and Black Panther, her Ultimates teammate, joined to score 45 of Shaun’s 58 points. Johnny used Spider-Man’s 23 points to edge out Brian when their two…

Fantasy Comic League: July 2016

Tony Stark steamrolled the Fantasy Comic League in the month of June, but in July, Carol Danvers, his Civil War II adversary, scored her personal best and led the individual hero points for the first time. Apart from Captain Marvel’s 30-point tally, Shaun’s Civil War gamble did not quite pay off, despite two of his characters, Hawkeye…

Fantasy Comic League: June 2016

Iron Man continued to sore in the Fantasy Comic League and scored the most individual hero points for the second month in a row. Thanks to the events of Civil War II, and a five-week month, Tony tallied a record-breaking 44 points – the most points scored by one character in a single month. Unfortunately,…

Fantasy Comic League: April 2016 (Finals)

Johnny triumphed in the final month of the first season of 2016’s Fantasy Comic League. Brian’s second place finished secured his overall season victory.

Fantasy Comic League: March 2016

The All-New, All-Different Avengers assembled for Brian and delivered him his second straight victory. Johnny continued his slow crawl up the ladder and Lash remained in the cellar. Shaun’s unorthodox approach to the draft earned him third place and introduced Howard the Duck and Adam Warlock to the league. The rookies only managed 15 points between the…

Fantasy Comic League: February 2016

Johnny triumphant! Not really, but it had been a full year, since February 2015, since he placed higher than last in the Fantasy Comic League. Spider-Man’s league-leading, twenty-point month netted Johnny a third place finish and slightly edged out Lash’s team by one point. Lash retained three-quarters of his January-winning team and secured the same number of overall points,…

Fantasy Comic League: January 2016

A new year brings with it a new season of the Fantasy Comic League. Lash, the League’s most freshman player, finally broke the hold Brian and Shaun have held on first place finishes. Lash secured the first victory of 2016 thanks to Iron Man’s strong month in which he scored at least one point in each category. Tony tied Deadpool…
