    I have my list in-progress and I had mentioned Dr. Orpheus as my first choice for the magic-user role on the team, but decided to pass on him because I was sure he'd make some other people's lists. He is my favorite character from the Venture Bros, however, and a perfect fit for the Parodyverse.


Orpheus is my favorite character from the show as well, and a natural fit for the PVB.

    I've never read anything with Metamorpho in it. Well, I suppose he might have been somewhere in that JLA/Avengers crossover since most every character was, but you know what I mean. Visually alone, though, he'd be a great fit.


I think a fun movie could be made with the character honestly. The only thing he suffers from is a lack of a good villain (besides his girlfriend's father and his neanderthal flunky).

    I like the look and description of Atomic Robo. I may have to check that out sometime.


I really can't stress enough how much I love the series. There are five trades collecting the series they've done so far and the second issue for the sixth just came out. If you're interested you can take a peek at some of the stories here: http://www.atomic-robo.com/free-comics/ .

    I'll have to look up the Non Adventures of Wonderella as well. I do love free webcomics.


They seem to be the wave of the future, though I know there are printed collections of Wonderella as well.

    Speaking of which, I was already familiar with the Snow Queen, and can see how she'd work with the PV. I'm quite fond of the former apprentice and his Lizard of Guilt from Oglaf as well.


See, this was the one strip I assumed no one would have heard of. Very funny and surprisingly well drawn.

    I've read PvP in snippets but never get into it as much as I should.


PvP alternates for me being laugh out loud hysterical and dull as dishwater. But I love the LOLBat stuff. He's like a 21st century version of the Tick.

    While we're on the subject, one web comic I just started reading recently that fits well with the board is Atomic Laundromat, about the staff running a Super Hero/Villain laundry service.


I'll have to check that out.
