Best New Character

Best New Character is an annual bracket contest pairing up user-nominated characters who made their media premiere in that year.

Rules
The character must have premiered in the year of the contest, though there are exceptions.
 * Characters who premiered in literature or comics are eligible based on their film/tv/game appearances.
 * Characters who premiered in media appearances may be considered new if the interpretation of the character is new (ex. Gotham's "Batman" characters) but only that particular version of the character is eligible.
