An excellent choice, and one I'm very happy to second. My favorite thing Jesse has ever posted was completed JUST before the window for this year's entries, but I do love that Medusa. Jesse is certainly overdue for this award IMO!

I'm going to nominate sunofdarkchild's New Mutants Film Rewrite. Sunofdarkchild has contributed so much quality work to the Original Fiction and Art section, some of which I admittedly haven't read as many of his works are rewrites of films and shows I haven't seen, but I know he'd been toying with writing a New Mutants film for at least four years now, and what he produced ended up being a lot of fun, especially with Magik's solution to the Demon Bear problem (wow did you do a great job of foreshadowing that final blow waaaaay early in the script). If you haven't read a sunofdarkchild original script yet, I highly recommend beginning with this one! I should probably note that sunofdarkchild does post these fanfics to other sites as well. They are not exclusive to the CCF, which may affect how some vote.

They are not exclusive to the CCF, which may affect how some vote. Thanks. Actually, the New Mutants story is the only rewrite I've done on this site. The Supergirl stories aren't rewrites of the tv show since nothing whatsoever is taken from the show, even the title character is a completely different character. The other stories are mostly short vignettes like the one about how Stephanie Brown would have reacted to Damian's death if she hadn't been erased by the Nu52 reboot. I do have a sort-of rewrite of the Young Justice cartoon currently going on at fanfiction.net where Stephanie Brown replaces Dick Grayson as Robin and the Linda Danvers version of Supergirl is added to the team. Also a confession - while there was a lot of deliberate foreshadowing in the story, that particular bit about Magik wasn't a case of that. It took me a while to figure out what you were even talking about. It's more a case of an obvious use of her particular power set and there being a limited number of ways that power could cause an accident. The process of writing this particular story was quite interesting because there was a subplot that formed about Magik without my originally intending it. It just happened to develop that way by the third chapter so I ran with it.
