DC versus Marvel Reading Challenge 2016

The Color Purple/ Ms. Marvel/ Fangirl/ 2 of 3
One of the main characters (Celie) is a big fan of another character in the book- Shug.
This week was another win for Team DC and the first change in lead we've seen for quite a while.
For them Lel, Veronica, Melanie and Milou all beat up Mystique. Veronica also recruited Com. Gordon to her team and took the achievement for being the first player to recruit Blue Beetle. Lel got the achievement for being the first to add Supergirl to her roster.
For Team Marvel Meera andShawnie defeated Mystique, while Nara recruited Agent Coulson.
The Energy Cell race ended 2:0 in favor of Team DC as well.

I want to keep it as simple as possible and stay purely with books, so hybrids like this won't count. If I start this, we would always ask ourselves, where does a hybrid start, which ratio of text versus graphics and so on and I want to avoid that.

Arya & Finn - Im Sonnenlicht/Iron Fist/Dragon Tattoo/1 of 3
*main protagonist has a magical tattoo

Atom/ Powers from a white dwarf star/ Morning Star/ 1 of 3
* a star on the cover and characters are exposed to radiation
Star-Lord 1. Peter Quill aka...
Read a book with “Star” or “Lord” in the title or where the main character is funny. Lone Star Rising: The Revolutionary Birth of the Texas Republic 1/3 for Star-Lord

Not fully sure on this one, I mean, by the end of the book....super rich. But doesn't start that way, pretty much starts the opposite of that...if it doesn't count will change it up.

Agent Coulson/3. Cheese/1 of 3/Die Erfindung der Flügel
The main character's name is Handful, but she is called Hattie.

Ms. Marvel/3. Nobody understands me/2 of 3/Eleanor & Park
Eleanor's parents are a nightmare. Park also faces some issues with his dad.
Mystique 1. Shapeshifter Read a book with "shape" or "shift" (or variations of the word) in the title or where a character has the ability to shapeshift. One Silent Night There are at least two shapeshifting demons in this book, and I believe others can do it as well. 1/3 for Mystique.

The Last Guardian / Vision / Laser Beams / 2 of 3
Main characters use "neutrino blasters" - a laser weapon.

Blood Song/Iron Fist/K'un-L'un/2 of 3
Got slightly ahead of myself on this, after nominating it for book of the month, probably a good thing it didn't get enough votes haha.
This week was almost a tie, but Team DC won it by 1 point.
For them Ana A, Dawn and Christina defeated Mystique, who was also defeated by Rinn for Team Marvel.
Team DC also won the Energy Cell race this week with 3:2.

Marvel/First Grave on the Right (Charley Davidson #1)/Mystique/Skull Belt/3 of 3
Skull on the cover

The Legacy of Merlin/Blade/high stakes/2 of 3
Main characters risk their lives to save an innocent

I think the score for DC should be 214 not 114.
PS: thank-you for all you do. I really love this challenge!

The Green Memory of Fear/Blade/Daywalker/3 of 3
The antagonist is a vampire.
BLADE RECRUITED
