It's Mister Fantastic Day here at HeroMachine.com, and to introduce our Poll Position question, I want you to listen to the following thoughtful piece by Mr. Norm Macdonald on the naming of the foremost super family:
In light of that riveting discussion, our poll question is:
For those of you who can't access the audio, at great personal pain I have transcribed the entire sketch below.

Welcome all my friends to the show that never ends! We're so glad you could arrive, look inside, look inside!
Or failing that, come up with the funniest replacement dialog for this random comics panel from "Captain America":
Otherwise, the rules are simple — as many entries as you like (within the bounds of good personal editing), appropriate for no worse than a late-night broadcast TV show, by next Monday. The winner receives their choice of a) any item they like to be included in HeroMachine 3; b) any portrait they like to be included in HM3; or c) any subject (within reason) for a Sketch of the Day style custom black and white drawing.
Good luck everyone!

Wow, we had a phenomenal number of absolutely outstanding entries for Character Contest 50: Lord Random III! This may be a record number of Finalists, I'm not sure, but regardless everyone should be very proud of themselves this week. I really appreciate all the hard work and creativity on display.
Without further ado, therefore, your Finalists! As a reminder, the challenge was to put together a concept using names randomly generated from the Seventh Sanctum site.

Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please! For your delight and amusement we now present four knock-down, drag-out, in-your-face heads-up matches pitting the creativity of some of the Internet's most creative people tackling the challenge of creating "Robin Hood in Space" using HeroMachine 3! The following Elite Eight players survived some tough contests that saw their versions of "Friar Tuck" beat the competition, and now we're moving on to "Little John."
Your votes decide who wins each matchup: You can vote once per day in each of the four matches. That's right, once per day! So get all of your friends to come back to HeroMachine.com each day to stuff your ballot box. You can see a larger version of each entry simply by clicking on the thumbnail and you can read the stories after all the polls are listed. The winner of each match as of midnight Thursday receives their choice of either a) any item they like to be included in HeroMachine 3; b) any portrait they like to be included in HeroMachine 3; or c) a custom black and white "Sketch of the Day" illustration.
Finally, we also have all of the "Little John" entries from everyone who's been eliminated thus far. You can also vote in that all-in scrum once per day, with the overall winner as of midnight Thursday will receive the same prize choices as the matchup winners.

Congratulations to the winners of Friday Night Fights 2, Round 1 (Friar Tuck): Me, Myself and I; Imp; JordanXord; Myro; VonMalcolm; Frevoli; DiCicatriz; and Gargoyle323!
The closes race was between JordanXord and Atomic Punk, with a margin of victory of just one vote! I don't think there's ever been a closer match, congratulations to JordanXord for pulling it out, and sympathies to Atomic Punk for the squeaker loss. VonMalcolm also only won by four votes (72 to 68 for Alex). Me, Myself, and I got the most total votes at 105, narrowly edging out Myro at 103 for the honor:
Those entrants not advancing to Round 2 (Cliff, Rozenstal, Atomic Punk, GeneH, Alex, Hammerknight, TJ, and Jean) will be added to Consolation Round 2 so everyone can see their Little John entries, along with everyone eliminated in the Play-In Round.
The winner of Consolation Round 1 (Friar Tuck) was AJW, nudging out Rancid by six votes. AJW wins his choice of either a) any item he likes to be included in HM3; b) any portrait he likes to be included in HM3; or c) a custom black and white Sketch of the Day style illustration. Congratulations to AJW!
I'll have Round 2 matches up later today; I wanted the winners to have a few hours at least to revel in their victory.
