I have no idea what any of this means. I just guess "Superman"

DC and their stupid Legions and Leagues and Lasses can kiss my black ass.

If it's not Image it's crap!

Clearly I missed the instructions allowing us to use Google.

I'm going to go ahead and assume you were expecting "three-way with two Playboy Bunnies" levels of fun, but are actually having "four-way with two Playboy Bunnies and a Penthouse Pet" levels of fun

Re: Comic Book Sheep is here!

Finally got off work and noticed I missed a lot today. I went with Superman everytime he was a option since Jason used him as an example in the first post, I thought people would go that way. I know in the next group of stuff that sounds like it will come up tomorrow I'll be in trouble I used some more obscure stuff there.

Also with my answers I'm going with the older references of books, I really haven't read anything from Marvel or DC published after 1996, I has some trades after that just haven't gotten around to reading them.

And Jason a Reverse Sheep would be really interesting.

Still can't believe I missed a question, though I had them all :-(

It's not that you missed a question, it's that you numbered your answers when you sent them to me.

Re: Comic Book Sheep is here!

Yeah this has been fun. I wish I had gotten in on the movie game. Didn't notice the thread. I kind of just take my the first answer that pops into my head. I should take a little more time with it.

Mordred, Wonder Woman was not actually in the Legion of Superheroes. Then again, Wildfire and Cosmic Boy were and you didn't do any worse than me and Prepper.

By the way, we have our first Googlers: Nick Danger and fumanstan each get a one-point deduction from their scores this round.
Arrgh! My strategy to answer "Superman" whenever possible has failed me!

Re: Comic Book Sheep is here!

No pictures in a Comic Book Sheep contest? I would be disapointed if it were the Bus, but Trevor was right. This does look more fun than I expected

And, we're back. But first, let's take a moment to address some reader questions.

Dear orangecrush,

First of all, that's not a question. Second, you must have your browser settings configured to hide pictures, since there has been a picture for each and every question. But I will assume what you really meant to say is that you want more pictures -- or, to put it in terms you will understand:




Well, ask and ye shall receive. Today's set of results will have more pictures!

You are right about the first part. To be honest, I don't know why I can see all the pictures the Bus posts. But, I welcome more pictures, even if I can't see them

Almost as good as the spoiler tree. I wish I had participated. I know who Stan Lee and Superman are.

Question 10: Name a character with a military rank in his superhero name



Poor Commander Steel. He's said because nobody named him.

Re: Comic Book Sheep is here!

Question 10


Captain America (17): JasonF, Meatwad's Ghost, MHepburn20, dadaluholla, davidh777, Rockmjd23, Nick Danger, dvdhook, CaptainMarvel, The Bus, Palaver, RKilgore, Prepper, Bandit03, fumanstan, Hokeyboy, Lokimok


Captain Marvel (3): fujishig, MBoyd, burnside986


Sergeant Rock (3): ivelostr2, reverie, Trevor


Sergeant Fury (0): brianluvdvd


Colonel Fury (0): maxfisher


Sergeant Slaughter (0): Mordred

Ironically, once again CaptainMarvel did not use "Captain Marvel" as his answer.

What does everyone think -- is Sergeant Fury the same as Colonel Fury? I say no.
