Ok guys, I don't know what to do as our next poll. The obvious way to go after doing Marvel's Greatest Superheroes and the their Greatest Supervillains is to do DC next, but I have one problem with that, I can already write both lists down to each position without needing the poll and that just defeats the purpose. But, just in case you want to do that, I'll give you a choice. Next week we can either do DC's Greatest Superheroes or The Greatest Superhero Teams, your choice. The poll will be open till Monday, when the List from our last poll will go up and then next Monday we'll do which ever poll gets the most votes here. Sound good?

The premise of this contest is that over the next number of weeks we will build a team of superheroes and a team of villains. Each week I will supply you with a role, name, or list of powers of one of the team members and you will use HM3 to create the character. The winner each week will win a version of their character created on HM by yours truly.

Your challenge this week is to design villain team’s go to guy when it comes to bombs and destruction…Tick Tock

Lily was diagnosed as cancer free and recently released from the hospital. She is slowly regaining her strength and has returned to school.

Lily loved all the CDC entries, and her mom was very touched that so many people showed their love and support through their art.

I just want to take this opportunity to thank all those who entered and held Lily in their hearts. You folks rock!
