MAJOR SPOILERS POLL OF THE WEEK\\n
One of the Faithful Spoilerites sent in this suggestion for the poll of the week \\u2013 Animals Fighting! Now while we don\\u2019t condone dog fights, cock fights, or other forms of animal cruelty, when the animals in question are fictional, and are already maiming and killing, it seems reasonable enough to toss the little buggers in the ring and let them go at it.\\n
Entering the ring this week are Rocket Raccoon and Dex-Starr!
