This is it– a battle two months in the making!

The Final Four fought the good fight, and there are only two left standing. In another context they may be a Dynamic Duo, but as the Scots say, there can be only one. Voting was hot and feverish but knocked out in the Semi-Finals were Not A Villain and Girl Genius, who move on into a contest for the bronze. The stakes are high and the prize is grand. No other web comic will be able to claim bragging rights to winning the ComicMix March Madness 2015. Over 500 were considered, 128 were chosen and one will remain champion. Who will it be… Stand Still. Stay Silent or Shotgun Shuffle?

All will be known after polls close this Friday, May 8, 2015– vote now!
