'Who's Your Favorite Captain Marvel?' and More Comic Book Reader Polls

Welcome to You Decide, a feature where, well, you know, YOU DECIDE! I'm doing a new comic book-related (including a comic book movie-related one every once in a while) poll question on my Twitter account, Brian_Cronin, every day of the year (okay, sometimes a little past midnight on any given day, but you know what I mean, pretty much every day. 31 days in January, 31 polls in January). Each poll will last a week and then, once a month's worth of polls are finished (so, seven days after the end of the month), I will share the results of the previous month. I'm doing it a bit later this month.

You can search for all of the current polls that are still open (a week's worth of them) by searching for the hashtag #csbgpoll on Twitter, or just click here. Go vote for the polls that are still open and check back every day to see a new comic book related poll!

In the meantime, here are the results of the polls for February (the winner is bolded)....

BONUS:

The next Comic Book Legends Revealed is #800. It'll have six legends, so double-sized. You can now vote on whether it will be six legends about DC characters or six legends about Marvel characters. #csbgpoll Here is the finished 800th CBLR!
