So I'll apply my tiebreaker: more "comic-booky" movie wins.
Punisher gets my vote. Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Pre-2000 #16 play-in-round Post by: Fau Teixeira on March 29, 2020, 12:24:12 pm How can you possibly ever vote against Dolf!

It will be matched up against Superman, The Mask, and Flash Gordon in the next round. |
