Summer Superhero Spectacular: Round One
Host Jason Snell with Steve Lutz, Philip Michaels, Tony Sindelar, Lisa Schmeiser, Chip Sudderth, Dan Moren, Andy Ihnatko, and Monty Ashley
In celebration of the four days of Comic-Con 2015, we present a four-day celebration of silly superhero debates! We’ve seeded 64 heroes into a tournament that’s designed to find the most incomparable superhero of them all. Or something like that. The advocates are sometimes passionate and sometime disinterested, but that’s okay, because the judges are completely capricious.
