The vote was close enough to a tie that I couldn't resist this idea.

Road Runner vs Sonic the Hedgehog 

Blue Blurs Battle

(Speedius Maximus) - The common desert road runner is a fleet-footed flightless bird with a diet that favors bird seed. Typically preyed upon by coyotes, although victories are rare and hard fought.

 (Erinaceinae Sonicus) - The uncommon blue hedgehog is a sneaker-clad, bipedal variant of the common hedgehog known for its incredible speed and agility. Typically preyed upon by robots and rotund, moustachioed scientists.

Professor Jones has recently been spotted with a mysterious individual wearing green armor...

Ronald McDonald vs The Burger King

Fast Food Fury!

Hailing from McDonaldland, the Clown Prince of Happy Meals has ruled over the fast food empire for generations. Assisted by a legion of assorted criminals and ne'er do wells, including the fearsome Grimace, his reign has largely been unchallenged.

The leader of a long-forgotten realm known as the Burger Kingdom, the masked monarch now lurks in  the shadows, delivering flame-broiled feasts to his new subjects. Silent and sneaky, he has returned to reclaim the crown that was once his.

In the end, Batman always wins.

Gordon Freeman vs Link

Men of few words face off!

One battles aliens and soldiers alike, crossing dimensions and delving deep into labs and bases in pursuit of his goals. A brilliant mind and a brave spirit in a hi-tech suit wielding a crowbar, he is feared and respected in equal amounts.

One battles beasts and monsters, driving back the darkness in two worlds and throughout time itself. Strong and stubborn, equipped with a wide array of weapons and devices to suit every situation, he is a hero in the purest sense of the word.

Victory to the elf!

Han Solo vs Indiana Jones

Actor Battle #1!

In this corner, the notorious captain of the Millennium Falcon. Smuggler, Mercenary, Rebel. Accompanied by his wookie companion Chewbacca, he evades bounty hunters and Imperial ships alike, delivering cargo and crew to their destinations.

In this corner, the bane of Belloq. Archaeologist, Professor, Pulp Hero. Accompanied by various women and children, he fights Nazis and ventures deep into the world's most dangerous ruins in search of mythical artifacts.

Batman vs. Sherlock Holmes

A Deductive Duel!

The World's Greatest Detective goes up against The World's Greatest Detective!

One is a cowled crusader that cleans the streets of Gotham City of criminals both large and small. Always thinking one step ahead and equipped with a beltful of gadgets, he is rarely caught off guard.

One is a legendary mind wielding logic and reason as his greatest weapons. A master of disguise and a deft hand on the violin, little escapes his keen eye.

Results!

It was a hard fought battle, but with 88% of the vote, Samus Aran emerges victorious! We'll see just how she won next week in the first full FNC comic.

Until then we have a new matchup that needs your votes to determine the winner:

Robin Hood vs. Legolas

A Battle of Bows!

One is a hero of folklore, a clever rogue, a wealth redistributor. With his band of Merry Men he is the fear of all wealthy nobles who brave Sherwood Forest. Always on target, never led astray!

One is an Elf of the Woodland Realm, son of Thranduil, archer and scout. Whether guiding the Fellowship of the Ring or defending it from ravaging orcs, he accomplished every task with skill and grace. You'll always have his bow!

The first matchup is one that has been done before, but its a solid competition and one that I look forward to trying my hand at.

Samus Aran vs. Master Chief

Power suit matchup #1!

She's a bounty hunter raised by alien birds to be stronger, faster, and smarter. Equipped with a unique set of power armor with a wide selection of enhancements, she hunts Space Pirates and life-sucking Metroids across the galaxy.

He's an elite supersoldier with a half ton of armor and an AI girl at his side. Whether fighting the Flood or crushing the Covenant he's an inspiration to all that follow him and a nightmare to anyone or anything standing in his way.
