[float=right][/float]What a fight! What a tournament! What a crazy awesome event this whole thing has been! All the participants did amazingly over these past several weeks, and after many hard fought battles, we have our Champion. At long last, the victory goes to The One Dark Knight and the girl battlebot, Pandora! But don't think he's gonna just lie down on his laurels, this is a dynamic title. Although Pandora will always be the 2011 VOID Heavyweight Champ, TODK will have to defend his right to stay the top dog from all challengers. If the title goes undefended for too long, the crown will be considered abdicated, and a new tournament will be held to find a new Champion. In the meantime, however, our darling yet dangerous title-holder remains undefeated since 2009. If you're planning a run for the top, be sure to bring your MG game!

Also on the horizon this summer is Orange's 22 Page Challenge, where ten artists from around the site have come together to each create their own 22 page stand-alone comic over the course of one month. The first leg ends this Saturday, where the participants will have a week to rest and check out their competition before the final push. The previews have been looking hot hot hot, get ready for some amazing stories before this month is out.

If you haven't had the chance to check out Wei's Monthly Artist Showcase, definitely get yourself over the art jams right now and take a look! Each month a new artist will design an original character for everyone to try their hand at, and then the best one (as voted on by you guys!) will move on to be the next designer! May's artist was none other than our VCaster RedRevolver with her ninja-pirate-badass Anne Boney the Slash. Head over to the thread here and vote on which entry is your favorite!
