How could you NOT include the debut of Mindgrabber Kid on the back!!! His appearance is second only to Superman's! Don't you remember the marketing frenzy he set off? The likes of it were not seen again until Ghostbusters, Batman, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He was on lunchboxes, tee-shirts, toys, and of course, "Mindgrabber Kid’s Mind-Boosting Vitamins" (which they've now linked to Alzheimer’s).

Then there was his controversial guest appearance on Mayberry R.F.D where he got into that fistfight with George Lindsey, followed by his much publicized marriage to Quality’s Torchy Todd which sealed the deal for the majority of Quality characters to come work for DC. If you’ll recall, it all came crashing down for MGK however, when the tabloids got wind of his tawdry affair with Little Lulu, and his obsession with grabbing more than just little boys’ minds.

None of the latter allegations were ever proven in court, and MGB dropped from the comics scene, and the public spotlight altogether. He went on a 12 year drinking binge, and gained 200 pounds. He then tried brief stints as a phone psychic, a talk show host, and even starred in infomercials selling exercise equipment. He is now trying to get his life back in order and runs a center for wayward young superheroes with Matter-Eater Lad

64 (smashing shot of Red Tornado): 22
69 (GA gets the thumbs down): 17
61 (Split-faced heroes/villains): 16
70 (The Creeper pulls some strings): 14

67 & 68 getting little attention, garnering a mere vote apiece.

Will we finally see a winner tomorrow?

I know we're supposed to be guessing what DC will do, but I hope they do:

64, Red Tornado

65, T.O. Morrow

67, the entire JLA of that era

It is really satisfaction enough to be able to compete on the same playing field with all of you. You are all winners in my book. It is indeed a shame that we can't carve up this prize in two dozen equal parts and distribute it to each of you.

I picked 3 out of 4--and the one that I got wrong was 64 which I picked because it seemed so obvious. The other 3 (63, 66, 69) were all ones I was really pulling for, so having no 64 was quite all right with me.
