This is my attempt to catch up on these before the end of the year.  So, (deep breath), going in reverse chronological order:

 

I’m more familiar with the non-bathtub version of the Fantasticar, so I will pick it.

Legion of Super-Heroes more interesting visually

Wolverine Vs. the Silver Samarai

Black Panther - caped

More Hulk dialogue in movie

A Super-Skrull story during JB’s FF run

Dr. Doom as Santa

Fantastic Four with Thing

Santa Claus guest appearances

I know when winter officially starts, but I usually call it that earlier

Daredevil and She-Hulk

Hulk - better name

Owl - better Daredevil villain

Daffy Duck

Guy Gardner - bigger chip

Magneto:  expansively-abled

I think that Spider-Man’s arch-villain has changed through time, but overall Green Goblin

Gwen Stacy killed by Green Goblin

Better casting: Christopher Reeve as Superman

Iron Man - better movie

Mad

Zatanna - better spells

Superman vs. the Juggernaut (Roger Stern and Neal Adams)

JB’s time on Fantastic Four - bigger legacy

Clark Kent - better at “day job”

Harley Quinn - interesting addition to Joker

J. Jonah Jameson - rotten bastard

Better issue: tough one but the appearance of Congo Bill tips the hat to Action Comics #1

Better orgin: Spider-Man

Santa Claus - real in Marvel and DC universes

Batman’s second-best villain – Riddler

Better guided tour – Fortress of Solitude

More fun – poker night at Project Pegasus

Key Lime Pie

Funnier sitcom – Seinfeld

Cleavage

Iceman from snow-covered to ice-covered

Iceman from snow-covered to ice-covered

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man

Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man

In brightest day, in blackest night

Wolverine’s fangs – too much of a good thing

Batman – long-eared cowl

I would trade Captain America and Flash, but only temporarily.

 

Whew!

Non-Bathtub, but the Bathtub was so slick, and practical.

Brandon's round-up shows how crappy my DC universe knowledge really is!

I like the original Fantasticar more.

Thursday 1/1 toss-up: do you expect to invest more or less time/money into comics this year?

Kevin, I would like to applaud you and your tireless efforts on this topic. Truly you are a god among men.
More for comics, since I'm back on the full-time gig!


Edited to add: Ted Pugliese, I did not mean to slight you. I'm a relative new-comer, and I've just completed some exhaustive research. I see that you held down the Toss-Up for 401 pages. Homina Homina! Oochita Goochita! Su Sussudio! And I'm not just sayin'!
Verily, if Kevin is a god, thou art the All-Father. Or something like that.
Anyway, thanks to both of you.
