I laughed out loud when she jumped right on the lap sitting. I think she assumed her rehabilitee would be male and that lapsitting for a slinkly l'il honey like her would be a cakewalk. HA!

I have to say, Feedback really impressed me. I'm officially rooting for him now. Seriously, that was pretty impressive!

TONIGHT!!!! tonight - that's a reminder to you all! I think that Feedback will win....I don't think that Major Victory will be the one to see his name on the comic books, based on two reason, Marvels already have one I think so...but DC has ONE who is a member of Force of July/SHADE. so I pick Feedback. *xxxkkksstt**

Yeah, I was majorly disappointed. Although I thought their final farewell was quite touching. I can't wait till the finale.

I think this was a good elimination. <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text"> I always felt thet Major Victory was in this for a career boost</span></span> I did think <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">Fat Momma</span></span> was the one to be eliminated. Definitely the two remaining superheroes are the best.

My thoughts on the three heroes that were on the show (in alphabetical order)... Fat Momma... <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">I figured she'd win on the presentation to the kids. She gave some good lessons without really being preachy. But I was appalled by her so-called performance in the mall; she took 40 minutes longer than the others to find Dark Enforcer?! That alone should have eliminated her. Guess it was her willingness to leave the game for Feedback's sake that saved her?</span></span> Feedback... <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">Have to grant that his origin was over the kids' heads... and *Pong* as his favorite game?! I know he couldn't tell them to go play "Grand Theft Auto", but at least he could have chosen a sports game? The politeness in helping the clue-holding lady with her purse, while it cost him a little time, did pay off as "heroic behavior". An extra 10 Karma points to him for good role-playing. </span></span> Major Victory... <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">He was good with the kids, at least on the point of making them laugh. And he had the fastest time in finding Dark Enforcer... I would have thought these would save him. But Stan Lee decreed the man was almost a parody of a superhero. (At least he didn't accuse Major Victory of taking acting lessons from Adam West?) And as shown last week, Lee's not getting off Vic's back about his past as an exotic dancer. At least Lee made up for it with the phone reunion -- so while Major Victory the hero didn't win... the man has got his daughter back.</span></span>

I find it interesting that Stan Lee is having such a hard time with Major Victory being a former stripper when throughout the entire series he's had a Stripperella poster behind him

Originally posted by Spellbinder: I find it interesting that Stan Lee is having such a hard time with Major Victory being a former stripper when throughout the entire series he's had a Stripperella poster behind him I'd wondered about that one myself... Then again, it shows that Lee's being a bit hypocritical. He set out in the 1960's to create characters that had flaws, since he was dissatisfied with the comics that said that superheroes were saccharine sweet and never argued over anything. But he doesn't seem to tolerate flaws in these people; tossing out Levity especially was an example of that.

you know i'm kinda sorry Major Victory was voted off, i liked him because he didn't take it too seriously, unlike Feedback, now i realize what Fat Mamma was talking about when she said she feared for him. Feedback seemed like the type of classic comic book superhero that took things way too seriously and when something bad happens he snapps!! i mean Peter Parker never took things too seriously that's why Spiderman was such a wise-arse, if he took things too seriously i don't think he could've handled the the events that plagued him throughout his career as Spiderman. i mean the reason why the marvel characters supposededly appeal to everyone is because they have real life problems thrown at them and too me it seems like feedback would be the type to "shut down" if the situation got "too real"! Major Victory seemed like the type of guy that when life threw him lemons, he'd make lemonaid for everyone.

Stan lost me when he said a hero can't make light of things. This from the man who created the world's greatest smartass in Spider-Man? Sorry Stan but you seem to have forgotten all about what it takes to create a lasting character.

EXACTLY!!!! of all of them i always figured Stan would've liked Major Victory because of his slight "cheesiness" and "jocularity"

Well, my favorite is gone. I'm not sure who's going to be the last hero standing. It'll depend on how the selection is done. If the booted heroes have a say, I think that Feedback probably has more support because of FM's remarks after Ty was booted. If Stan gets to choose, then I'm thinking he'll probably still pick Fat Mama over Feedback.

Fat Mama herself has admitted more then once that she is only in it to make a point to her own children. She doesn't want to serve as a spokesperson for comics and superheroism. She took an hour and twenty minutes to complete the scavenger hunt test at Universal Studios. She spent more time 'in character' asking for food from all the guests (who probably paid fifty cents for every french fry she bummed) and just didn't seem to grasp the concept of taking the test seriously. GO FEEDBACK!!!!!!!

Remember everyone tonight is the season finale! I'm having a viewing party just as I have for the previous eps. I even bought some sparkling apple cider for the occasion. No matter what happens I'm going to be buying the dvd too because it's been such a blast to watch.

There's a difference you'd forgotten about Spider-Man. He may shoot out quips in battle as fast as he fires webbing... *but* beneath all the jokes is a man who's taken up a very heavy burden of responsibility. Taking care of his aunt, dealing with his romantic life, his work... and knowing that people he loves have suffered and died because of Spider-Man. I am not discounting Major Victory's goal to reconcile with his daughter, but that one goal doesn't balance out the constant jokes. And that's why Stan Lee got him.

After seeing the "mini-movies" that were made for Fat Momma and Feedback tonight, I find the idea that Major Victory was "too campy" to be a super hero to be the biggest line of bull that Stan has ever pulled.

Okay, so does Matthew Atherton (Feedback) get to play his character in the Sci-Fi movie or will they hire a "real" actor? The info I found only says their character will appear.

And Stan tipped his hand on who'd win, based on those movies. Feedback is saving Mount Rushmore from being blown up by the Dark Enforcer; Fat Momma's fighting... a giant chicken hatchling?!
