I'll go Mano too! We can always get Brin or Luornu next month! Mano stills needs validation for the Empress forming a new Fatal Five during Levitz's run and purposely excluding hiim.

Although I really like Brin I'm intrigued by Mano so he gets my vote this round.

Wow -- I'm surprised by the Mano turnout -- I suggested him cuz he's been one of my fav villains who hasn't had that much credibility but with this support, I'll have to go with Mano as well!

Unless a barrage of Brin backers brings more ballyhoo, I think Mano wins this vote HANDS down
So how long do we set for the creation process? I'd say minimum two weeks but longer if y'all think that'd be good.

Here's an idea to keep things simple -- what if the big gallery openings where we post all our work happens the first of the month? Latecomers can still post stuff afterwards during the next round of voting.
Either way, I'll go by whatever date you pick M-E Lad.

Very cool! I'll get right to my Mano submission for the inaugural gallery exhibit. So, I guess we need a new round of nominations while the Mano stuff is being worked on with a runoff culminating in the announcement of the next winner at the beginnning of next month? How does that sound?

I plan on writing a small story about Mano for the opening, but need as much info as I can get on him - does anyone have a file on him (apart from the Science Police and quite a few debt collection agencies ) they could share?

Here's the Who's Who page that'll eventually show up in the Encyclopedia. Sorry it's not big on details and that it's pre-boot. I'll try to dredge up details on the deeper, more complex post-boot version as well -
PERSONAL DATA
Alter Ego: Unknown Occupation: Criminal Marital Status: Single Know Relatives: None Group Affiliation: The Fatal Five Base of Operations: Mobile First Appearance: ADVENTURE COMICS #352 Height: 5’11” Weight: 140 lbs. Eyes: Unknown Hair: Unknown
HISTORY
Mano was born on the extremely polluted world Angtu in the latter half of the 30th Century. A mutant with a glowing disk on his right hand that could disintegrate virtually anything, Mano became psychotic and eventually used his power to destroy his own world. Joining a group of the galaxy’s worst villains summoned by the Legion of Super-Heroes (see LSH) to defeat the menacing Sun-Eater, he became a charter member of the Fatal Five (see Fatal Five).
POWERS & WEAPONS
Mano has a glowing disk on his right hand that can disintegrate virtually any form of matter. He is a dangerous physical combatant as well. Art by Jim Starlin
