Now for this week's question
Two new battle types have been introduced fairly recently, Artist Battles and Collab Battles. Are there any other battle types you would like to see? Are there any more battle type possibilities?

ENTERVOID [link]
Launched in 2002, EnterVOID offers artists a place to hone their artistic skills in a competitive and cooperative environment. Once artists create an original character, they are able to challenge any other artists on the site to a comic battle. Upon completion, a community of artists gives helpful critiques and advice on how to improve each artists craft even further. With hundreds of unique characters and thousands of artists, EnterVOID is a haven for those seeking to improve their comic creation skills.
Alumni of EnterVOID feature the talented Sheldon ("Supertron") Vella, Kenneth ("Madame Mirage") Rocafort, Eisner-nominated James ("Wonton Soup") Stokoe, and many others with published works.
EnterVOID.com features thousands of comics from a globally diverse set of artists, covering nearly every genre of storytelling and artistic style. We recently re-launched with a brand-new design and features to bring increased levels of interactivity for comic artists.

Also the collab versus battle-thing that Kuro mentioned sounds pretty neat too!

Its all in the eyes
When we changed over from the old 'battle' comic system to the new 'comic' system, there was a lot more going on than simply a name change. It opened a numerous possibilities that were never an open before, specifically all the collaboration and team stuff that we're only just now starting to see take place.
In addition, just earlier this year these options open even further by allowing matches directly between artists, without characters. Now, all the same options for team-ups, match-ups, and solo comics for characters are available to artists too.
The problem is, these things aren't widely known or available yet. No one can go into their manager and set-up a four-way match themselves or even create an artist match yet. The staff is still the gatekeeper to these new options and until that changes, I don't think they'll truly catch on.

Artist Vs. Character battles.

Without Wax, TT
I'm not too hot on the collab system as of yet. Mostly for the voting reasons, as there is no appropriate way to break down votes with our current voting system. I understand that the comic is suppose to function as one entity so the votes should be on the piece as a whole. But if that's the case, how do we break down credit once the battles are complete. Maybe we can just post the comics and have no voting.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing collab battles. I enjoy that you get to experience more of how real comics usually work. It also encourages people to work together as well as produce more comics. It's just I see it as a flaw as to how it works in our system.
Let's call it the Arma method, where each artist is scored on individually even though they create a single comic?
