I have twelve. I doubt that I'll change them unless I discover a really serious omission. I'll just address any non-serious omissions in my wrap-ups. Which you're getting whether you want them or not. (And why would you?) Wouldn't be a complete Classic Comic Christmas without your recaps!

I’m not sure what the write ups would cover. Would you comment on how good the character you picked is ? I included who the character was, where they spun off from and a little bit about the run I actually picked featuring the character, why it was my favorite featuring that character, possibly a bit on the creators, since not all of them were the 1st series to spin off featuring that character or why I like the character itself. It varied a bit based on the entry with a little more if the character or series was more obscure since others might not know about it. My break down was 6 DC-ish, 2.5 Marvel, 3.5 Indy (how Marvel and Indy split one you'll have to wait and see. -M I feel confident I know the answer, as it appears on my list as well.

I think my top 11 are fixed. And I've got my #12 narrowed down to 15 contenders.

MRPs_Missives , you just woke me up. I know who you mean and I’m going to include them. 😁

Just thought of 3 more. I'm definitely swapping stuff in and out. Now I'm really trying to shoot for 12 Indy instead of the Big 2.

I'm really intrigued to see what indy spin offs you guys have.... I really couldn't think of much on that score, other than stuff like TMNT one shots off the main book (things like that) which I ultimately discarded since it's really the main book I like.

I have a list of 30 but my problem is that, except for a few, I’m not in love with the characters. 2 of them I am including because of their importance in the comic world.

It took some work to go through the Indy companies and figure out where people first appeared and went from there. I have some fun ones and a lot of spin-offs from the same comic.

Also, the spin offs you choose need to have lasted for at least three issues, so one-shots wouldn't count.

OK. Calling my list settled. I could have gone 10 different ways for #12.
Final count is 2 DC and 9.5 Marvel characters. I was hoping for a bit more balance, but the truth is I love Marvel.

Just had my first experience this year of thinking I had my list settled, only to remember a title I'd forgotten (as result of a discussion elsewhere on CCF) and having to decide what to bump. Ultimately I bumped a title I suspect will get a lot of love in favour of one that more flew beneath the radar.
If history is any guide, this will probably happen a couple of more times.

My list breaks down (at the moment) to 6 Marvel, 4 DC, and 2 Other. We'll see how long that lasts.
Cei-U! I summon the potential for change!

My 12 is basically what's going to come off the top of my head... I'm winging it, like I usually do.
Tomorrow's the day!
