So while Spacebooger puts us in a holding pattern, it’s time once again to go back to the days of Christopher Robin and Bahlactus. After the success of the first set of fights, the one to be bet upon kicked it up a level. Or rather punched it up, since now every fight had to include an uppercut. So looking back, seeing what links still work, and looking for inspiration to the next wave, here comes…

THE BEST OF 

 Uppercut Edition

•  Everyone’s a music critic

• In wrestling, sometimes the cheaters win

• Using Godzilla is an instant win with me,

•  And using Doctor Who

• And using Transformers

• Today’s Superman would need a planet to hit him just to feel it.

• I used to like the show on HBO

• Tweet tweet

• This hurts just watching it

• They can never reprint this fight

• There’s just so much heart in this fight

• Batman knocks the taste out of Ubu’s mouth

•  You don’t see enough bunnies smacking people upside the head

• Looks like someone brought help, but did they pack a lunch?

• The Flash’s attempt to do his own Ok Go parody goes horribly wrong

• New Batgirl makes it look easy

• Just to make sure we get our RDA of Nazi bashing

• So now Jimmy Olsen is playing with gamma rays–you can’t leave that kid alone for a minute

• Dinosaur kicking a caveman in the head–yep, a Chris Sims entry

• Wait, there actually was a Condiment King?

• Beating your replacement with a giant version of yourself–only Hal

•  This is why Daredevil is better than you

• For that matter, so is Sherlock Holmes

• The first time I’ve ever seen comic Casey Jones in action

• Only his fight with Guy Gardner was funnier

• Do I even need a reason to link to this?

•  Three is overkill, if you ask me

• I just really, really like their outfits

• I…suppose it can uppercut

• Clark later snapped Max’s neck. No, wait, wrong fight

• (insert obligitory “stop hitting yourself” joke)

• Batman needs no translation

• Yo, Bendis! This is how Cage curses!

• I miss this version of Mary Marvel

•  Apparently, Batman’s training included soccer

• Comic Coverage is doing a series of articles about one-shot Superman powers. I wonder if he knows about this one?

• Now that’s an uppercut!

• Some posts just beg to be in a “best of”

• Speaking of not hitting yourself

• for all the wrong reasons

• Captain Marvel gets…deposessed

• Charlie Brown gets payback for that whole “pull the football away” gag

•  This is why Kitty Pride is better than you (and why I have a crush on her) (just pretend you didn’t read that)

The last one is my favorite fight of the “Uppercut” tournament. However, perhaps you have a different one? Just check out all the fights, and remember to ALWAYS BET ON BAHLACTUS!

In the meantime, Spacebooger has updated us on our next fight themes. I already have a gameplan that’s going to take up the entire week, and…we’ll, let’s just say that never having a date on Valentine’s Day make “bah! humbug!” justified without the Anti-Life equation. Although I’ve never been down with OPP, it’s mostly because I can’t figure out what it is. However, I’ll probably be there for the Friday Night Fights! You best be, too.
