  • It just comes off as lazy IMO. Granted they could use another character to play said hero, like picking Ms. Marvel to play Wonder Woman for example, but I just picture people being lazy and saying I'm casting a Wonder Woman show and she will be played by.... Wonder Woman.

    Now I have a thought about another potential rule. Let's say someone picks Peter Parker does that automatically remove Spider-man from the running or do we treat them as separate entities...(probably a stupid question but whatevs)
    I LOVE conspiracy theorists. They are like human versions of the cymbal clapping, dancing monkeys. No one takes them all that seriously and they get bored with them after about 10 minutes.

        Yeah, but I don't think we need a RULE to prevent that. Wouldn't the fact that your team would be laughed at be reason enough for people not to go that lazy route?

            I'd say that if they ARE the same person, they count as the same person. But really, unless we are going to limit it to a specific "universe", it doesn't become MUCH of an issue. Somebody picks Peter Parker? Pick a Spider-man from a different universe, or one that isn't Peter Parker. It seems to me like there are so MANY "versions" of almost any character (at least in DC and Marvel), several of which are not very different from each other, that unless you limit it to a specific universe a "no duplication" rule is only a minor annoyance.

            • That makes sense. But at the same time some characters' "secret identities" are very different from the hero identities (i.e Batman/Bruce Wayne or Bruce Banner/Hulk)

              • I think if you draft Hal Jordan, you're drafting Hal Jordan with the potential to be Green Lantern. Therefore both should be off the board.

                • How about drafting a superhero TV series? That'd be fun. Back to basics.

                  • "Back to basics" would be a Hero/Villain draft.

                    • Well the first draft I ever knew of was casting a DC film or TV series, so to me, that's back to basics.

                      Plus they're my favourites.

                      • Granted, but this whole thing started with a Hero Draft.

                        • Yeah let's do a Hero or Villain Draft

                          • My vote is to draft a TV series or film.

                            • How about spin offs of existing TV series. For example, a spin off from say Doctor Who based on say the time war, a spin off of supernatural about say Dean and Sam's dad or granddad, a spin off from Sponge Bob about Patarick, a spin off from Family Guy about Quagmire, and so forth?
