Flux Family Feud: The Super-Answers

(Post by August Schulenburg. Photo by Isaiah Tanenbaum. Survey questions and tallying by Matt Archambault.)

Survey says…give us the answers! Look through the actual tallies of the survey questions to remember all the heartache and elation of Flux’s 3rd Annual Family Feud: Superheroes & Supervillains Edition. Remember when the judges got real generous during that “what supervillains want” question? Or when we nearly had the Incredible Hulk as our president? And who can forget Rachael’s lightning quick answers in the fast money round? Live it all again, friends, on this cold post-Sandy Tuesday.
