    Complete bracket
    Final Four

    Well folks, we have a #1, a #2, a #3 and a #8. It should be fun.

    Robin (#1 seed, Superhero)

    [​IMG]
    Sidekick to: Batman
    Advantages: Perhaps the most famous sidekick. Ever. Eventually got his own comic. Cool utility belt.
    Disadvantages: Bad rep amongst hardcore comic enthusiasts. Almost wrecked film franchise. Those ridiculous tights.
    Road to the Final Four: Defeated Rick Jones, Kid Flash, Bullwinkle and Battle Cat

    vs. Hobbes (#8 seed, Comic/Cartoon)
    [​IMG]
    Sidekick to: Calvin
    Advantages: Pounce-and-tackle attack. Mastery of the scientific method. Good-natured.
    Disadvantages: Poor drawing and math skills. Weakness for the ladies.
    Road to the Final Four: Defeated Boo Boo, Porky Pig, Woodstock and Barney Rubble

    ***

    Dr. Watson (#3 seed, Literary/Mythical)
    [​IMG]
    Sidekick to: Sherlock Holmes
    Advantages: Skilled physician. Capable, brave and successful with women.
    Disadvantages: Intellect appears ordinary, even dull, in comparison with the brilliant Holmes.
    Road to the Final Four: Defeated Friday, Felix Leiter, Samwise Gamgee and Tonto

    vs. Chewbacca (#2 seed, WTF?!?)
    [​IMG]
    Sidekick to: Han Solo
    Advantages: Consumately skilled fighter, smuggler and pilot.
    Disadvantages: Unintelligible to all except Solo and other Wookies. Socially challenged.
    Road to the Final Four: Defeated Tattoo, Tom Servo and Crow T. Robot, Igor and R2-D2

    How the 'Boy Wonder' got by Bullwinkle-the funniest sidekick EVAR, and BattleCat the super-powered green tiger, is absolutely beyond my comprehension....methinks Robin has his 'merry' men in tights riggin' the voting :shifty:

    I'm with GK- Hobbes better win this matchup!:yes: GO HOBBES!!

    I understand the Chewie love, but I was hoping Watson would put up a better showing than this.

    Colorado Dolfan ...dirty drownin' man?

    Just had to correct the bolded area: should read the second-funniest sidekick EVAR.

    Hobbes owns Bullwinkle in the funny sidekick arena.:up:

    Watson beating Tonto must have been overseen by Tim Donaghy.....no way that should logically happen...no way!:tantrum:

    Well, considering Tonto had to go to overtime to win his previous two matches, I'm not surprised.

    Looks like we're going to get the final that's going to kill me. Probably go with Hobbes though.
    QFT, and I'm a big Watson fan. I've read the entire Sherlock Holmes series written by Doyle, but Tonto should have been a lock for the Final Four.
