Marvel Comics Character Tournament!!!

[Zoken]

Dr. Doom is the second greates scorcere and second smartest person on this planet. I think he's got what it takes to beat Apocalypse. if not, he'd definitely make it interesting.

[ssj wolverine]

Apocalypse.

The Secret Wars was so long ago but if I recall correctly didn't the Beyonder allow Doom to take his power on purpose as part of the game? If this is the case then Doom using his smarts in attaining Beyonder's power means nothing. Doom is a genius but Apocalypse is way beyond him excuse the pun.

[Suleman]

Okay, so Doom has nice tech. Big deal, old Ape-lips has alien tech far beyond that. And his own powers, which make him a multi-teambuster.

Apocalypse.

[Genesis 1.0]

Heh, with prep time this one is very close but in terms of genuis, Apocalypse has lived since Acient Egypt and he's created everything from a mutant killing virus to a living ship, prep time he can do just as much damage as Doom and he's more malleable and able to change with the attack.

Apocalypse

[Hellstormer]

Apocalypse

[TheCorpulent1]

Heh, with prep time this one is very close but in terms of genuis, Apocalypse has lived since Acient Egypt and he's created everything from a mutant killing virus to a living ship, prep time he can do just as much damage as Doom and he's more malleable and able to change with the attack.

Apocalypse
Wasn't the ship Celestial technology that he stole?

[Phaedrus45]

Apocalypse

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

I am not so sure now, I forgot that Doom is basically second or maybe third in teh mystic arts on Earth. So....I change my vote, Doom, even in a head's up meeting with no prep time.

[Mazrim Taim]

Apocalypse

[Silicon Surfer]

The ship was indeed created by the celestials. And yes the Beyonder let Doom take his power and Deadhead Doom was too arrogant and stupid to realize that he was being toyed with. While I admit that I have been out of touch since my local comic shop closed a while back, as of the last time I was aware Doom was anything but a mystic master. He was apprentice level if that. When he entered the contest set up by the Vishanti it was to watch the masters in action. In order to stay in the contest he had to cheat using his armors computers to anticipate the attacks.

[TheCorpulent1]

Did he still perform well? You can't really hold it against Doom if he cheats but still gets results. Doom's all about cheating.

[Andykin]

Doom, by the way, with the Deadpool/Spiderman comparasin.......yeah I don't have a clue what I was thinking, lol sorry

I vote Doom
(for easy vote counting)

[POWdER-man]

18-14 for Fat Lips....another high voting match, gotta love that..:up:

[chuckymack]

I like Doom more, but Apocalypse would own him. In a very harsh manner. Probably in Egypt. With cats.

[The Punisher]

Apocalypse

[ookami]

I'd say Paco all the way.

[Sparta*]

Hey Ook, where have you been?!!

[Silicon Surfer]

Did he still perform well? You can't really hold it against Doom if he cheats but still gets results. Doom's all about cheating. Yeah, he was the last except for Strange. He was in awe of Strange though. that Still does not make him number 2. That place probably goes to Mr, Jip. Dakimh and Jennifer Kale probably rate above Doom and probably Margali Szardos.

[TheCorpulent1]

If his armor allows him to take out the other magicians, I'd say he's #2 in all the ways that count.

[Silicon Surfer]

If his armor allows him to take out the other magicians, I'd say he's #2 in all the ways that count. A simple spell could take Doom to a magical dimension where his armor would not work. Interdimensional teleportation is the easiest. There against a more powerful and knowledgeable opponent he is in it deep. If you're going to take on a sorceror there is no substitute for magical skill. And Dooms armor was disabled except for the computers.

[ookami]

Hey Ook, where have you been?!!

HEY BABY!!!!! I missed you so much, but I've been doing Mommy stuff, writing more fiction and my stupid computer kept crashing.

*Kisses*

[Sparta*]

HEY BABY!!!!! I missed you so much, but I've been doing Mommy stuff, writing more fiction and my stupid computer kept crashing.

*Kisses*

It's all good...I do miss your PM's though lol :up:

[POWdER-man]

21-14 is the final score for Apocalypse....(funny how Doom actually won this in the tournament tread)

Next match coming up.....

[POWdER-man]

THE FOLLOWING MATCH WAS REQUESTED BY XFanTim

X-FACTOR
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v625/Sparta27/X-factor.jpg

Here are the matchups broken down:

Cyclops vs. Quicksilver
Psylocke vs. Havok
Rogue vs. Polaris
Gambit vs. Strong Guy
Beast vs. Multiple Man
Wolverine vs. Wolvesbane

[Darth Wolverine]

Cyclops vs Quicksilver
Pietro is fast, but not invulnerable. As he's running towards his opponent, Scott sweeps the room with his beam, knocking Pietro off course and blasting him off his feet. A second, more accurate blast to the speedster's head finishes the battle.
Victor: Cyclops!
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/original/Blanchett_Cyclopslight.gif

Psylocke vs Havok
Alex attempts to blast Betsy with his plasma beams, but she dodges and uses her telekinesis to paralyse him until she completes her move with a roundhouse kick to the jaw.
Victor: Psylocke!
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/2nd%20team/psylocke/JR-BetsyCollection13.gif

Rogue vs Polaris
Poor ol' Lorna has no chance here. Rogue's superior speed means that she can swoop in behind her opponent and either drain her or pummel her with her fists. Whichever you prefer.
Victor: Rogue!
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/2nd%20team/rogue/malicia5dv.gif

Gambit vs Strong Guy
This is a tough one, but again, Remy's speed gives him an advantage. He blinds Guido with explosions, and then uses his staff to propel him into a wall. That dazes him, and allows Remy to charge the wall, which promptly explodes and buries an exhausted Guido.
Victor: Gambit!
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/2nd%20team/gambit/Gambit21no.GIF

Beast vs Multiple Man
This would be a loooong fight with Beast punding his way through duplicates if not for his genius-level intellect. He uses one of his many devices ( a scanner or something) to identify which is the real Jamie, and K.O.s him swiftly. Also remember that Jamie can feel any blows his duplicates take, which means he can't keep a barrage up for too long anyway.
Victor: Beast!
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/original/gbbeast1.gif

Wolverine and Jubilee vs Wolfsbane
I know you didn't put Jubilee in, but I thought I might as well include the whole team. This is overkill, although Jubilee's presence does mean the fight ends quicker. She blinds Rahne before she can run, and leaves Wolverine to finish her off.
Victor: Wolverine and Jubilee!
http://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/2nd%20team/wolverine/ctbp_quitely_wolverine.gifhttp://jerome.galica.free.fr/marvel/X-Men/divers/Blanchett_jubileesparks.gif

X-Men on all counts!

[blah]

Cyclops destroys Quicksilver

Psylocke is destroyed by Havok

Rogue destroys Polaris

Gambit is destroyed by Strong Guy (Although I love Gambit:(, Strong Guy can absorb whatever Gambit can throw)

Beast is destroyed by Multiple Man (Strength in numbers)

Wolverine destroys, mauls, eats, and kills Wolvesbane

So it's a three-to-three tie!

i dont think i could see quicksilver beating wolverine...but thats just me:)

[XwolverineX]

I am a Wolverine fan boy, and I still know he would get owned.

[Darth Wolverine]

No way. See Ultimate X-Men: The Tomorrow People for an instance where Logan almost impales Quicksilver even when they're not fighting. Plus, WPietro's not the strongest of people...

[Genesis 1.0]

On the virtue of the abttles posted, I'd have to give the power edge to Psylocke, not much X-Factor defense against herrange of power. The rest is almost even but I vote for....

X-Men Blue Team

[Mazrim Taim]

The Blue team because nobody can take Logan.

Thanks...:D:up:

BTW 20-6 X-Men kick ass....too bad XFanTim didn't get to vote....

[Zoken]

Mr. Fantastic vs Spider-Man: Spider-Man
Thing vs Hulk: Hulk, though it would be a good fight
Human Torch vs Wolverine: I don't know on this one
Invisible Woman vs Ghost Rider: Ghost Rider

Not exactly the way I'd have matched them up.

WOlvie and GR would have switched targets. Wolvie would be able to track her when she goes invisible, and anything she hits him with heals quick.

GR and Johnny can go at it for a while, but remember that GR can't be hurt by fire, and his fire makes people depressed.

all in all the New Fantastic four, even though I don't really believe they would work as a team.

[1987olds442]

Mr. Fantastic vs Spider-Man :doom:
Thing vs Hulk :hulk:
Human Torch vs Wolverine :wolverine
Invisible Woman vs Ghost Rider :ghost:

So I give it to the New Fantastic Four..

[POWdER-man]

Mr. Fantastic vs Spider-Man: Spider-Man

Human Torch vs Wolverine: I don't know on this one
Invisible Woman vs Ghost Rider: Ghost Rider

WOlvie and GR would have switched targets. Wolvie would be able to track her when she goes invisible, and anything she hits him with heals quick.
Well if Wolverine would win easily against Invisible woman but have difficulty against Human Torch than why would it have to be swictched...:confused:

GR and Johnny can go at it for a while, but remember that GR can't be hurt by fire, and his fire makes people depressed.

all in all the New Fantastic four, even though I don't really believe they would work as a team.


Again I think Ghost Rider vs Invisible Woman is a much more interesting matchup than GR against Human Torch, which you even say that fire can't hurt GR so what would be the point...:confused:

[POWdER-man]

Mr. Fantastic vs Spider-Man :doom:

So I give it to the New Fantastic Four..

I find it funny you chose DOOM's smilie instead of Spidey's...:)

Mr Fantastic

Wolverine
Ghost Rider

Original Fourwtf? you voted for only one out of the original four?

[Zoken]

Thinking strategically.

if I was on the FF's side....

Torch we know can't take on spidey (He can be smothered). So we pit him against Sue, she's got the powers to take him on. his Spidersense doesn't always provide the best warnings so her invisiblity is still a benifit.

I'd send the Torch against the Hulk, but keep Johnny from getting too close. just have him annoy Hulk and lead him away from the rest so that he can't be a bother. eventually the Hulk will run out of steam (Especially if Johnny plays it from a distance like I want) with minimal damage to Torch.

Mr. Fantastic can take on Wolverine, quickly wrapping him up and binding him tight. those adamantium claws are useless unless they can cut, and reed stretchs to well.

Ben going against the Ghost Rider is a good bed as he doesn't ahve anything too horrible in his past. Ben has been a good guy and should be able to go mano a mano with GR.

[Unleashed]

wtf? you voted for only one out of the original four?
So?

[POWdER-man]

I had this match-up before, but I think I had different individual match-ups.

O_o

[POWdER-man]

Spiderman vs Mr Fantastic
A good matchup, without prep-time Reed will have to rely on his abilities to beat SM. SM on the other hand has faced tougher opponent, some similiar to Reed's elasticity. I think it will be a good matchup but SM will endure.
WINNER: Spider-Man

Hulk vs Thing
Another good matchup, one that has happened in the past. It won't be a cake walk for Hulk, but in the end I think he will take this one. However, Thing's no push over so I will give hima vote
WINNER: Thing

Wolverine vs Human Torch
I think this matchup was a good one. Johnny has a couple things going for him. His ability to fly and his range of attack. Johnny just has to keep in the air away from close contact wil Wolves. If he does get up close, it's game over. But Johnny knows the score and a full flame blast should burn up Wolves pretty badly. He would recover but it will take time.
WINNER Human Torch

Ghost Rider vs Invisible Woman
Another good matchup, The Pennance stare would probably not affect IW and the hellfire could be blocked by her psionic shielding. So it would probably come down to hand 2 hand combat which she would lose.
WINNER Ghost Rider

Spiderman 6 Mr Fantastic 1
Hulk 5 Thing 1
Wolves 4 Human Torch 3
Ghost Rider 6 Invisible Woman 1

As a team, Fantastic Four would clean house. They would just work too well against these loners.....

New Fantastic Four 6
Fantastic Four 4

[Harlekin]

Spidey vs Mr. Fantastic
Spidey

Thing vs Hulk
Hulk

Wolverine vs Human Torch
Human Torch

Ghost Rider vs Invisible Woman

That makes it a tie, but if it were a group match, the original FF would win it, so they get my vote.

[spartin2008]

How could you guys. I mean come on, just cause there a new and kind of cooler FF out there you just through the old ones out, i know that you guys know in you heart that the old would so work as a team to win, there better than that, so my vote goes with, as any time, the OLD TEAM OF THE FANTASTIC 4, now....... WHOS WITH ME.

:ff: :ff: :ff: :ff: :ff: :ff: :ff:

[Kmack]

Can't decide:eek:

[Ahura Mazda]

New F4 on individual matchups.

On a teamfight with 'prep' time I do not know.

[POWdER-man]

There's never prep-time, unless stated (which is wasn't) like during the Apocalypse vs Dr Doom Matchup.

No worries, don't apologize, most people don't know that anyways.....

[chuckymack]

If it's a team battle, the Original Four win, hands down. If it's one-on-one, the New Four win. I'll give it to the originals, just because I like them better. And Jessica Alba is infinitely hotter than Tobey McGuire, Hugh Jackman, Eric Bana and Nick Cage combined.

[Darth Wolverine]

^^
Oh yeah!

For the individual match-ups:

Mr Fantastic vs Spider-Man: Spidey!
Thing vs Hulk: Hulk!
Human Torch vs Wolverine: Human Torch!

Okay, I've finally decided. The original FF. They have been working together for so long they will eventually win the battle for their experience as working as one unit.

[Mazrim Taim]

New ff4

[XFanTim]

Thanks...:D:up:

BTW 20-6 X-Men kick ass....too bad XFanTim didn't get to vote....
Yeah, I had a wedding to go to over the weekend so I haven't been on much. I'll give my breakdown anyway.

Cyclops vs. Quicksilver:
Quicksilver can move fast enough that people don't even see him, they just feel a strong gust of wind as he runs by. If Cyclops can't see him, he can't hit him. (He can't just shoot a blast in all directions, given that he's surrounded by his own teammates. Yeah, he's really good at targeting and using deflections, but he'd still need to know what he's trying to hit.

Also, Quicksilver has beaten Cyclops by speed blitzing him before, in a battle from around this time period. (Infinity Crusade #5). Just zoomed in and hit Cyclops with a few dozen super-strong punches (Quicksilver also has some super-strength) before Scott could react.

Winner: Quicksilver

Psylocke vs. Havok:
Psylocke's primary attack from this time period was to stick her psychic knife in the back of someone's head, or hit them with martial arts moves. These short range attacks wouldn't do much good against someone with a long-range plasma blast -- she just wouldn't be able to get close enough. Havok can use a wide blast that wouldn't be easily dodged, and Psylocke had (at that time) no telekinesis with which to deflect it. As far as trying to use a long range psychic attack, all of the veteran X-Men (of which Havok was one) have at least some telepathic resistance from their training with Xavier, and he only needs to resist long enough to get off one shot.

The only way I could see Psylocke winning is if the battle took place somewhere with lots of obstructions (like a forest), so she could use her stealth to sneak up behind Havok and take him out. But given that it's a six-on-six battle, not one-on-one, it probably takes place in an open area with both teams knowing the other one is there.

Winner: Havok

Rogue vs. Polaris:
Polaris has gotten stronger since then (before losing her powers), thanks to training with Magneto in Genosha. But even earlier than her X-Factor days, she had fought Rogue and done quite well. When Polaris was possessed by Malice, she fought Rogue, and tangled her up in girders from a construction site. (She made them move so fast that Rogue couldn't outrun them, and then strengthened the metal so she couldn't break it.) Rogue was trapped until Dazzler cut her free.

At any rate, this fight might come down to how much metal was available in the surrounding area. But at some point during her tenure with X-Factor, Polaris took to wearing a costume made of metal, which she could use as a weapon. At any rate, I'm betting she could scrounge up enough metal to at least keep Rogue occupied. All Polaris has to do to hold her off his keep her out of arms length, since Rogue uses punches and touch-attacks.

Winner: Stalemate

Gambit vs. Strong Guy:
Gambit charges objects with kinetic energy and explodes them. Guido absorbs kinetic energy and turns it into strength. So anything Gambit hit him with would literally just make him stronger. And one super strong punch from Guido is all it would take to put Remy down. That said, Gambit is a lot faster and more agile, so he could probably dodge Strong Guy's punches all day.

Winner: Stalemate

Beast vs. Multiple Man:
These days, Jamie Madrox would probably kick Beast's ass. Why? Because he's been sending his duplicates all over the world to learn knew skills, including training in Kung Fu with the Shaolin monks. Fighting a few dozen Shaolin-trained Kung Fu artists is a hell of a lot tougher than just fighting a few dozen ordinary guys, which is basically what Jamie's dupes were in his X-Factor days.

That said, even back then Jamie had a couple of abilities that a lot of people forget about. First, when he got hit he'd absorb the kinetic energy and channel it into making another dupe, so until Jamie reached his maximum (something like 50), punches and kicks wouldn't do much against him. Second, hit could distribute injuries among his duplicates, so if one dupe gets hurt bad, he can change it so that all of them are hurt just a little.

So basically, this means Beast would be fighting a few dozen people with significant resistance to injury. Even with his super strength, he'd probably be overwhelmed pretty quickly. His best bet would be to just keep leaping around and trying not to let too many of them near him at once. But given Beast's agility, he could probably do this for quite some time.

Winner: Stalemate

Wolverine vs. Wolvesbane
No contest, here. Wolverine can take more damage, and can dish more out. Plus, he has an enormous edge in experience and training.

Winner: Wolverine

OK, so that's 2-1 X-Factor, with three stalemates (most of which I'd say are leaning a bit towards X-Factor). But what would happen then?

Here's how I see it going down:
Having taken Psylocke out quick, Havok turns to help out his girlfriend (Polaris). He nails Rogue with a plasma blast while Polaris holds her in place. Even with Rogue's near-invulnerability, Havok's plasma blasts should be powerful enough to knock her out.

Beast realizes he's not having much luck with Madrox, and goes after Havok instead, leaping in and attacking him from above. Focused on Rogue, Havok doesn't see Beast coming until it's too late, and is knocked unconscious.

Quicksilver, having defeated Cyclops in high-speed, zooms in to help his team leader. He tosses Beast into a dogpile of Multiple Men before Hank can react. He then runs over and beats snot out of Gambit (who was still in combat with Strong Guy.) Remy is fast for a human, but to Quicksilver's accelerated senses he'd be moving in slow motion.

Wolverine tries to cut Beast out of Madrox's pile-on. His claws do enough damage that even after re-distributing it Jamie is in pretty bad shape. But by the time Logan gets to Beast, Hank is already out cold.

Guido goes to help his buddy, but he takes a nasty slash from Wolverine.

But Wolverine doesn't fair so well against Polaris. The man with a metal skeleton is basically at the mercy of the Mistress of Magnetism. (I know he's had some success against Magneto, but generally by taking him by surprise or in situations where his teammates help keep Magnus occupied.) Lorna magnetically lifts Logan into the air and slams him into the ground until he blacks out.

Final Result: X-Factor win in a close one

But either of these teams would get trounced by the Gold Team -- Jean and Storm (not to mention Iceman, Colossus, Bishop, and Archangel)? Game over.

[XFanTim]

Mr. Fantastic vs Spider-Man:
Spidey can anticipate and dodge most of Reed's attacks, but Reed can attack from many directions at once, which could pose problems for Pete. I could see Reed managing to tangle Spidey up, like Doc Ock sometimes does. Plus, Reed can absorb the impact of Spidey's punches.

On the other hand, Spidey could give Reed a face full of webbing, leaving him fighting blind. But Reed is so smart he might be able to figure out a way around this. (I know Parker's a smart guy too, but Reed could still out-think him.)

Outcome: Mr. Fantastic wins a tough one, possibly by smothering Spidey.

Thing vs Hulk:
It might take a while, but in the end Hulk is stronger and more durable.

Outcome: Hulk Smash!

Human Torch vs Wolverine:
Johnny can stay well out of Logan's reach by flying, or simply intensify the flames around himself so that Wolverine can't get near without burning the flesh off his own bones. Since Logan's only attacks are short-range, he'd be out of luck. Eventually, Johnny burns Logan bad enough that even his healing factor will take a while to catch up.

Outcome: Human Torch flames on!

Invisible Woman vs Ghost Rider:
Ghost Rider is strong, pretty much indestructible, and has lots of different weapons and attacks.

But Sue's forcefields have taken a stronger pummeling than he can dish out.

Outcome: Invinisible Woman contains him, bike, chain, hellfire and all.

Final Tally: 3-1 for the original FF, but they'd still have a hell of a time beating the Hulk.

[Andykin]

Bravo XfanTim! you've summed up my thoughts on both battles in a nut shell! Well done, and awesome wrighting too.

[Sparta*]

Mister Fantastic VS Spider-man - Mister Fantastic
Thing VS Hulk - Hulk
Human Torch VS Wolverine - Human Torch
Invisible Girl VS Ghost Rider - Invisible Girl

All in all, I think the original FF's leadership, and proven teamwork, would give them the edge in this fight.

Although, 14 - 9 is the final tally for the NEW FANTASTIC FOUR!

[Sparta*]

Alright, it's my turn to post match-ups now.....

[Victor Creed]

Id go with Dr. Strange too, well Professor X may stand a chance if he could get the artifacts away from Strange. Doubt that would happen though, so Strange all the way.

[Sparta*]

Keep in mind there is no prep-time...could Doctor Strange whip up a spell before Xavier shuts his mind down? I dunno...

[Harlekin]

Dr. Strange, easily. His telepathy will be strong enough to hold Xavier off long enough for him to do a spell.

[Ahura Mazda]

Go with Dr. Strange as I believed he had some mental protection, and there is no element of surprise here or at least both would be surprised at the same time.

[XFanTim]

Doctor Strange. Xavier may be a stronger telepath, but Strange has telepathy and a whole lot more. Plus, he routinely takes on cosmic beings who could eat Xavier for breakfast. And as Ahura points out, there's no reason to assume Xavier would get the drop on him, as opposed to the other way around. (Plus, Strange has sometimes been shown to have automatic shields -- although I'm not sure if these block telepathic attacks)

here are the individual results BTW....

Spiderman 8 Mr Fantastic 4

Wolves 5 Human Torch 7
Ghost Rider 8 Invisible Woman 4

and I am going to check again but here are my results for the teams.

New Fantastic Four 10
Fantastic Four 11

EDIT: I left out those who didn't vote for either team specifically and those who said they weren't sure.....Arguably it could be a 11-11 tie...

Yeah, that match-up was a confusing one to tally...some people didn't say which team they wanted to ultimatley win, so I just put down a vote for whatever team won the most match-ups in their post. It could be hard to get an official tally :down

[POWdER-man]

Well we'll just say that the originals won...:D

BTW thanks for the opportunity Sparta, it was fun...:up:

[blah]

Xavier penetrated the most strongly shut minds, I'm sure he can do the same to Strange.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Strange

[Darth Wolverine]

Xavier.

[ssj wolverine]

Strange. Not to be greedy but a request for Dr. Strange vs. Silver Surfer down the road.

[Colossal Spoons]

Xavier; due to the fact that there's no prep time and spells take a while to cast.

[Silicon Surfer]

Actually Dr.Strange stopped the Wraiths mental attack in an instant without apparent effort.The Wraith was fairly powerful.

[King_Mungi]

Hmmm...have to think about this more, but Strange did beat Moondragon with the mind gem. Hmmm...no prep right? what's his items he has with him for this fight?

[Sparta*]

He has what he would normally have with him...i'm not 100% sure what that is though :p

[Hellstormer]

Doctor Stephen Strange

[Genesis 1.0]

BTW thanks for the opportunity Sparta, it was fun...:up:

No way in Hell, the NEW FF4 won and you know it. Don't play with my emotions!:(

In any case, I'm going against the current and voting for Strange. Xaiver's broken down some major players with his telepathy including battling Dark Phoenix, he needed Jean's help at the end but he was doing well enough for a while, which is a feat unto itself.

Xaiver

[Andykin]

Xaiver, no doubt

Mysterio

[Venom.Symbiote]

I'm going with Puma. Unless he went through some major changes that I'm unaware of, Mysterio is still just a stuntman/illusionist with no special powers at all. Sure he could put on a great show but when it comes down to it, Puma should put a severe beating on the man with the fishbowl head. I'm sure there are some people who will say "Well being a stuntman has trained him in many forms of martial arts." So he's a trained fight choreographer, that doesn't make him a great fighter. Keanu Reeves has been trained to fight for his movies but does that mean he's ready for serious martial arts competitions? I think not. :venom:

Puma all the way.

Mysterio has defeated Spider-Man with his illusions before . . . you really think he's going to stand there and duke it out with martial arts?

My vote goes to Mysterio.

Yeah but Peter has his spidey senses and Mysterio can set them off and trick SM so why wouldn't he be able to do it to Puma? As for super intelligence, well I don't consider Peter to be "super" intelligent but he has outsmarted Puma on many occasions.

[blah]

But then again, Puma is a Merc. He won't hold back like peter.

What an awful picture of Thunderstrike. :(

I'd have to go with Wonder Man too. Thunderstrike's powerful, but Wonder Man's almost at Thor's level.

[Silicon Surfer]

Wonder Man

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Woner wear spandex Man :D :up:

[King_Mungi]

Wonderman, all hail the ionic hero

[Vanguard07]

I'm gonna say Thunderstrike on this one. Wonderman's powerful and all but Thunderstrike had all the power of Thor and Thor's just on a higher level than mr Williams.

[Sparta*]

I don't think Thunderstrike had ALL the power of Thor

Captain America VS Deadpool

Awesome :up:

[Bizzybone]

That is a awesome fight!

[TheCorpulent1]

I don't think Thunderstrike had ALL the power of Thor
He didn't. He was in the class 50 strength range, as I recall, and his control over weather wasn't as potent as Thor's. Although, to be fair, no one's control over weather is as potent as Thor's, except maybe Zeus'. Thor's been able to override every other weather manipulator I've seen him go up against.

[Red X]

Awesome :up:

Might even happen over at One Universe.

Could I suggest, if it hasn't been done, a Beast vs. Sasquatch battle?

[TheCorpulent1]

Beast would be totally destroyed. :(

[Sparta*]

Could I suggest, if it hasn't been done, a Beast vs. Sasquatch battle?

Yeah, Corp is right about this one...I think Beast would get beat pretty easily

Keep on throwing suggestions out whenever you feel like it though :):up:

[POWdER-man]

Could I suggest, if it hasn't been done, a Beast vs. Sasquatch battle?

Huh......don't let King Mungi see that post...:D

Yeah that wouldn't be an even fight...

[POWdER-man]

How about Speedball vs Mister Fantastic?

[Vanguard07]

How about speedball vs quicksilver
or hyperion vs gladiator?

[Silicon Surfer]

Hyperion vs Gladiator was done some time ago by Marvel. Gladiator broke Hyperions neck without much effort. If you want to match Sasquatch up in a battle of the hairballs, how about the Brute.

[TheCorpulent1]

How about a team-up battle? Like Thor and the Silver Surfer vs. Thanos and the Magus or something?

[Silicon Surfer]

How about a team-up battle? Like Thor and the Silver Surfer vs. Thanos and the Magus or something? Good Idea. Another possibility would be Adam Warlock and Kismet vs Thanos and Nebula

[TheCorpulent1]

Ooh, how about the baddest-ass badasses of martial arts? Mantis and Libra vs. Karnak and Gamora!

[King_Mungi]

Huh......don't let King Mungi see that post...:D

Yeah that wouldn't be an even fight...

Quite you! :p

He's the Mutant X version of Beast. Stronger, tougher, and amphibious, but dumb as a post.

THOR AND SS

I'm voting for Thanos and Loki. Even without the gauntlet Thanos is still very powerful and intelligent while Loki can come up with some good socery to even up the fight.

Thanos and Loki
