Like fighting?! Like prizes?! The Awesome Arena Tournament of Champions is underway! Feel like getting in on the action? We’re starting up a pool to see who’s got the comic book skills to call the matches ahead of the rest! Earn points by telling us who you think will bring home the victory in their match. Win, earn points. Earn points, win prizes! Correctly selecting the winner in round one matches will earn you one point, round two matches will earn two points, round three matches will earn you three points and the final battle will earn you, you guessed it, 26 points! I’m kidding. It’s actually four points. If you’ve got the most points at the end of the tournament, you’ll be taking home prizes courtesy of For The Love of Comics and Panels of Awesome!

Prizes (So far):

• A POA t-shirt
• Spider-Man: Blue TPB
• Cross Bronx 1-4
• JSA Vol. 8: Black Reign TPB (My personal favorite)

To participate, all you’ve got to do is make a post on both sites, For The Love of Comics and Panels of Awesome, telling us who’s going to win and why you think so! Sound easy? Well…it is. Seriously easy. Looking for some bonus points? If you get your friends to vote and check out the wicked action of the Awesome Arena, you’ll earn yourself one bonus point for each referral. Referrals can be through your blog, Facebook, MySpace account or anything else online! It’s important that you contact CrackerBob to get your bonus points for referrals! Still easy? Damn right!
