I'm with Luster here, these kinds of polls are more interesting than "Who's your favorite FFXIII character?"

Best FF13 character is an important poll though. We need to be able to pinpoint how many people have a terrible opinion and how many like Sahz.

I barely recognize some people in the actual CB. So, I'm all for an all fictional character contest. If the CB are supposed to stay "pure" okay fine, but can't we have a separate contest with nothing but fictional characters non originated in games?

All the huge-name Marvel characters were already in MvC2. None of these guys would be anywhere near the likes of Spidey and Wolverine.

The only people who like deadpool are the people who are all over the internet, he's an internet fan fav so he'd do bad in a gamefaqs setting.

yup, he's got no chance of doing well in an internet poll.

I thought people liked him because he's a complete *******.

Then again, I know **** about comics. The only thing I know about Deadpool is that some guy edited Deadpool into Mary Worth comics.

Deadpool was really, really cool back in the day, but now that he's overexposed, he isn't. No, it isn't one of those "it's popular, now it sucks" type of things, it's just that Deadpool got popular when he ditched his "badass mercenary that uses dark, twister humor to cover his scarred psyche" to "DUR HUR LOOK I CAN TALK TO DA AUDIENCE AND MAKE FUNNY JOKES ABOUT POOP WEEEEE." He doesn't even have any really cool fights like he used to anymore... The last good one was against Bullseye which is the highlight of his new series.

To make it worse, he now had two voices that talk to him in his head with no real explanation that are just there to be "WACKY DERP DERP," and it's spread to him having three comics. Deadpool, Deadpool: Merc with a Mouth and Deadpool Team-Up. Not to mention he's been on the cover of almost every other Marvel comic they could cram him in, even if he didn't fit. They even had "Deadpool Month" where all comics had Deadpool on the cover even if he wasn't in them. It's disgusting, and he's popular for all the wrong reasons. Say what you will about Wolverine, but at least he's stayed pretty consistent in his character over the years.

But hey, we can look forward to his new series, Deadpool Corps, and the renaming of Cable's series to "Deadpool & Cable," and the spinoff of Deadpool Corps "Lady Deadpool," and... There's another one but I can't remember what it's called. Spider-Man has two comics. Deadpool has... However many that is.

Maybe SFF from Dante... I saw Dante and automatically voted for him. I didn't even seen Leon, else I would have voted that way.

I would think more people in the early voting saw the trailer then later voting, so lets see if he does better later on.

Most voters have probably seen the art or heard the news about MvC3 by now. It's made its rounds all over the Internet, and every major gaming website has put the trailer up.

Leon will pick up, he won't finish behind Proto Man or Wesker, I'm sure of that much. It's a poor performance but he's behind a lot of obstacles (Chris, SFF and LFF).
