Title: New TL poll! Yipee!
Description: And it's NOT about love interests!

But if anyone wants to suggest a love interest feel free lol. The easiest way to muck up a characters day is with unrequited love after all. (And occasionally requited love)
Anyway for the actual question: Most heroes know at least rudimentary fisticuffs skills for an emergency. so, I figured why not have TL learn something? Then I remembered: He's as much a hero as he is comedy relief...so this leaves an odd number of possibilities opened for him. Tell me what ya think
and here are some wikipedia links for the options

As a fan, I voted for the Ranma ripoff styles. Pretty effective, but totally silly at the same time.

Indeed, I'd probably base Tl's methods off of either Genma or Happousai too.
Wouldn't you just love to see TL hurling leaping at Wonder Woman's chest every time they meet?

lol I'd suggest he make extreme use of that lantern aura if he tries that, might still get thrown into orbit. But the humor value would almost be worth it.

Couldn't he use the ring to make emerald ninjas?
...I went with Ranma and bizarre alien, alien would be the funniest. He could learn like... The Art of the Tentacle or something and have no way of actually performing it.
...Wow, I just posted!
That's almost as rare as Matt showing up.

I've decided i'll leave this poll up to next thrusday to decide the style heh.
As for Alien Arts...yeah...i'll have to decide on the biology of the aliens in question lol.
Y'know, Jim woulda been fun to have around right about now. He'd probably vote for 'Bizarre Alien martial Art' and then have a perfect example from Legion of Super Heroes.
Maybe Tri-Jitsu, or Karate Kid's 'Super Karate'

Well it seems to be a draw between a clear ripoff of Ranma 1/2 or Drunken Boxing...hmm...now there are two ways I can handle this.
1. Leave this poll open until one more vote comes for either of them
ooooor
2. Combine the two options into one. (Ranma's used Drunken boxing at least once in the series)

I'd say leave it until you get another vote and if you get bored before you get the vote, mix the two.

I voted for a clear ripoff of Ranma 1/2 and Drunken Boxing
Marx - September 1, 2006 01:23 PM (GMT)
>.< That...helps to clear the tie...gaaaaah! lol

Lani, you're a reeeaal smartass...I like that in a woman.
*runs away from Marx* SAVE ME MISANTHROS!

Okay okay, as soon as I figure out how to close a poll this one is over, and I guess i'll combine the two ideas. mwahaha!
Now...I just need to find a villain who can prevent TL from using his power ring WITHOUT taking it from him OR killing TL...
