Title: Comic book Character battle thread (VOTING!)
Post by: Flayne on May 09, 2011, 02:17:44 am
Hi all,

this is relatively simple:

Choose a Comic book character
from any comic book industry (DC comics, Marvel, Dark-horse, ETC.)

Post the character here
, it would preferable to post it along with a spoilered brief explanation on powers and abilities of character, so then no-one is confused.
they MUST have links to reliable and official info on their profile.

THEN

someone else, will choose a comic book character, to challenge the desired Comic book character.

A discussion on who would beat who then Begins!

This means that all those wishing to post a character afterward will have to wait until the discussion is finished.
In the meanwhile, Pm me with the desired character so then I will post the Character in an awaiting list.

anyone who wants to choose a character  to challenge the one in the awaiting list, should pm me, so then I can post an incoming discussion based on those two characters.
The list will be ticked off in order as we proceed.

Rules:

1: Please, No Flaming and No offensive language

2: NO Unsupported evidence of Major implications, example: Batman having the ability to fly.
It must be supported by some kind of evidence, a link to the info would suffice and be best. otherwise it is disregarded.
this goes aswell for Character enlisting, they MUST have links to reliable and official info on their profile.

3: Specificity, you have to be specific, example : Batman can fly.
That is not specific, a more specific implication can be: Batman can fly in his bat wing (Air craft).

Remember! This is a discussion battle thread for those that AT LEAST have basic knowledge of the comic book world.
in more blunt terms, no noobs or nooby implications

Thats all there is to rules


IMPORTANT NOTE: rule addition, Outside people are allowed to comment, but are only allowed a Maximum 3 posts.
they have to leave the arguing to the contestants, so we can't have them take over for anyone or seem like they are.

Also, Once the Battle Period is Over, There will be a Poll placed, for people to vote Based on the arguments made.


have fun!!! :)

here is the list, it will be constantly edited as events take place:

I said in my pm, that You have to prove that your character can beat the opponents character.

This means that Both of you argue which beats which.

NOTE: rule addition, Outside people are allowed to comment, but are only allowed a Maximum 3 posts.
they have to leave the arguing to the contestants, so we can't have them take over for anyone or seem like they are.

Ok so you have Thor who has the might of a god, but he can only do so much to someone who is, simply put, indestructible.  Cannonball has the ability to create a blast shield which allows himself to prevent damage to himself while in use and also allows him to propel force out of himself with great strength.  Cannonball would clearly be able to protect himself from any bodily harm Thor wishes to do to him and be able to keep up with the God of Thunder when it comes to strength.  Cannonball would win in the end due to slowly wearing Thor down.
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: Korugar on May 11, 2011, 02:08:19 am
Yeah, sorry, I hadn't read my PMs yet when I posted.

This taken straight from the marvel site, detailing but one of a vast number of powers.

"Superhuman Strength: Being the son of Odin and the elder goddess Gaea, Thor is physically the strongest of the Norse gods and one of the most powerful beings in the Universe[5]. He easily lifted a million tons [6], proved able to crumble uru into dust [7], destroyed Silver Surfer's force-field with a single strike [8], knocked out a well hydrated Namor [9], defeated the Gladiator and knocked him unconscious, rendered the Abomination unconscious with a single blow [10], matched Savage Hulk's strength for an entire hour (while Hulk was getting stronger and stronger and still he couldn't overpower Thor) [11], stalemated Hercules in a strength contest [12], and lifted the Midgard Serpent [13], who was so large that it could coil around the entire planet Earth from head to tail multiple times over and crush it in its grip [14].

He could also crush entire moons in his fists[15], and even shatter small planetoids with the force of his blows[16]. When he went insane, Thor struck Beta Ray Bill with such force that he destroyed the small planetoid they were on[17]. He has even broken through the armor of a Celestial in one blow[18]. All these feats have established Thor as one of, if not the, mightiest beings in Earth. His strength is matched only by powerhouses like Hercules, the Hulk, or the Sentry, and it surpasses that of heroes like Gladiator. If pressed in battle, Thor is capable of entering into a state of Berserker Rage known as Warrior's Madness, which will temporarily increase his strength tenfold."

You say that he couldn't hurt Cannonball, and would eventually be worn down?

OK, this taken from your article...

...an impenetrable and virtually indestructible “blast field”...

Note the word "virtually". So no, you are not completely indestructible. And would I eventually be worn down? Heh, you're funny.

Superhuman Stamina: Thor's advanced musculature is considerably more efficient than that of a human and most other Asgardians. As a result, his muscles produce practically no fatigue toxins during physical activity compared to those of humans and most other members of his race. He possesses practically inexhaustible stamina. He can exert himself at peak capacity for countless months on end at the very least without tiring at all. Thor was able to fight nonstop, for more than 9 months straight, from day to night, without any sustenance or rest, against the entire Frost Giants army, without tiring at all[19]. Thor was even able to fight the Sky father Zeus for entire months on end pushing him, from day to night without stopping for anything, and he still did not tire.

I guarantee you, Cannonball runs out of energy first.

Post by: DragonZProductions on May 11, 2011, 02:59:59 am
Well since you say that Thor has won some of the strongest fights, he has also lost some of those  major fights as well.  For instance he has lost the fight against the Hulk during World War Hulk and lost the fight against Red Hulk during his own battle.  You also say he has defeated the Gladiator but so has Cannonball.  We have seen Thor get injured several times over.  While Thor would not get tired  during the  fight it is more likely that he would be injured more often then Cannonball would be.

Not really. If anything can hurt Cannonball(and considering my earlier quote, it obviously can) it would be Mjolnir.
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: DragonZProductions on May 11, 2011, 11:28:12 am
Fine but could Mjolnir get to Cannonball... Cannonball is also a strategist and would know better then to stay close to Thor then more then a second or two.  He would most likely just Charge from and angle and dodge any of Thor's attacks until he could hit him, and just do it again until Thor gets bored or actually loses.
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: Korugar on May 11, 2011, 12:36:22 pm
Get's bored? Thor fought the Frost Giants for nine months, he's not going to get bored. Cannonball, on the other hand, has no sort of enhance stamina and, though I can't back this up because I don't remember where, I'm ninety percent sure Cannonball has a finite amount of time he can keep "burning". Something like half an hour. There's no way he could beat Thor by then, at which point he would very much be at Thor's mercy.

Korugar, the statement in yellow needs back up, its basically a major statement against a character, according to rules, it needs to be backed up by official proof to be 100% reliable info, not 90%.
otherwise it may affect the validity of the statement.

please provide a link to the page that refers Cannonball as a profound or well-recognized strategist.
otherwise the statement may be classified as a personal opinion.
personal opinions aren't that strong in this type of discussion.

Can you provide a link with Mjolnir's powers/traits please?

Battle Character Addition : Galactus (http://marvel.com/universe/Galactus)

Powers and abilities description from Marvel.Com

Galactus possesses cosmic power beyond most forms of measurement (The Power Cosmic). He can levitate; restructure molecules; convert matter into energy and vice-versa; project energy with enormous concussive force; teleport himself, others, and objects across space, dimensions, and time; erect virtually impenetrable fields; restore others from any injury, even total disintegration; and endow or enhance powers within others. Even his heralds, imbued with the smallest fraction of his power, can manipulate matter and energy far beyond human comprehension. Though he generally avoids physical conflict, Galactus can bolster his own strength beyond any known system of measure. Galactus is telepathic, able to scan the thoughts of virtually any known being.
To sustain his immense power, Galactus requires energies derived from a biosphere, a planet able to sustain living beings, though life does not actually have to be present. Though Galactus can extract and absorb this energy himself, he generally employs his immense Elemental Converter to perform the process, as it is far more efficient and avoids the expenditure required of him. Sometimes the planets on which he feeds are left barely habitable; other times he consumes all life and water, leaving it devastated and barren; most often the process reduces the planet to space rubble. When Galactus was newly formed, the energy of a medium-size Earth-like planet sustained him for over a century. Now he needs to feed about once a month; in addition, when preparing for a massive expenditure of energy, he may absorb planets more frequently to amplify his power stores. Conversely, when he does not feed within his allotted time, his energies will dwindle, and he will even begin to physically shrink as they drop dangerously low. His body totally converts the energies he absorbs for his life functions and activities without any waste products.

Though seemingly destroyed on several occasions, Galactus is always restored to full power eventually. In addition, despite being a physical being, Galactus can adopt a manifestation (M-Body) from the Dimension of Manifestations in order to commune with abstract beings, such as Death and Eternity.
Abilities
Galactus has scientific knowledge beyond human understanding.

NEW RULE:
People who post characters here in the period of a battle in progress, Have the option to choose whom they want to challenge in the pending character list on Opening Page (OP)ONLY IF there is more than one character waiting.
If they wish to wait for another challenger and place themselves in the waiting list, they may do so by PMing me.

When there is no battle active: the first two characters posted challenge each other automatically.
IF there are only 2 characters in awaiting list at the end of a battle, they challenge each other automatically.
IF there are 4 or more characters in awaiting list at the end of a battle, The people must choose whom they want to fight,
The choices are in order by value. For example: IF character A and B wish to challenge character C, and D is left out, Whomever out of Character A and B asked me if they could challenge C last, has to challenge character D.

People whom have finished a Battle May Re-apply to Comic Character Battle, but with a different Comic Character.

To the first yellow bit: His powers do not say anything about stamina upgrades, so if that's not good enough...Anyway, I don't have anything for the second half of that. So yeah, forget it. Anyway, Mjolnir's powers and traits are below Thor's on the link I already posted. And the thing Gavsword posted? Yeah, I was looking for something like that. If that little bit doesn't clinch it immediately, I don't know what will.

The winner of the first Comic Book Character Battle is...




THOR!!!!


Congratulations Korugar, your character has won the battle!!!


Battle period is over!



Next Character awaiting.... Galactus, Gavsword's chosen character.

Who will challenge Galactus?

Note: The next person to post a character automatically challenges Galactus since there is less than 3 characters awaiting.


Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: Korugar on May 20, 2011, 01:53:58 pm
Um...you might as well give Galactus the win, no one will come up with a character who can beat him...well, I can think of a couple who have a chance, I suppose, but I don't really feel like doing another flat out power argument...
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: gavsword on May 20, 2011, 01:57:55 pm
I know someone who definitely can, but they are pretty impossible to beat, and just unfair. Sorry Flayne, I think I broke your thread :-/
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: Korugar on May 20, 2011, 02:00:51 pm
Well, in all honestly, I can think of three or four who would certainly have the chance. I'm just not sure it's worth the argument. :)
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: Flayne on May 20, 2011, 03:38:09 pm
ok, then maybe I should change the rules a bit:


the rule that says the first 2 characters posted challenge each other automatically, instantly: Will no longer be applied to every case.

This rule will only be applied to cases when waiting people don't start a battle in over 2 days.
I will randomly choose using a number generator.

So, that means you guys can put yourselves on the waiting list until a character appears that you wish to challenge.


I could do that,

OR


No Gods/ Over powered Deities.

however Galactus has been beaten by other characters such as these mentioned here : Who can beat Galactus? (http://www.comicvine.com/forums/battles/7/who-can-beat-galactus/400351/)


What do you guys think?
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: Korugar on May 20, 2011, 03:53:44 pm
Well, I was thinking of a couple from that list. Others were jokes/not comic book characters. Others can't beat him. And on the other hand, just because they can beat him, doesn't mean they always will.

That's what the debating here is about, proving that someone can beat someone else.

For instance, there are two characters that are on par with each other in power.
both fight.
A  beats B.
they may fight again someday, when they do, suddenly B beats A this time.
So its all a matter of debating who has the most chance of winning or who wins more frequently in a timeline of rematches.

That's what debating is about, changing views and perceptions for other people.

Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: DevilLoss on June 13, 2011, 12:25:02 am
i guess all go first and start off with a  simple what powers thanos has.

THANOS HAZ:

Thanos possesses the superhuman physiology of all Eternals, granting him superhuman strength, endurance, reflexes, and agility. His skin in nearly invulnerable, particulary against heat, cold, electricity, radiation, toxins, aging, and disease, and he can survive indefinitely without food or water even before his "curse" from Death left him immortal, unable to die. His mind is also invulnerable to most forms of psychic attack, and can project a psionic blast of energy as well as blasts of plasma/cosmic energy from his eyes and hands.
More on Marvel.com: http://marvel.com/universe/Thanos#ixzz1OlbLJ8TL

please look at the bolded text he is immortal cursed by death to never be able to be killed therefore there is no real way for him to be defeated unless glactus can imprison him for eternity or something.

Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: gavsword on June 13, 2011, 02:39:33 pm
Thanos HAZ nothing on the great maker. Galactus is a being older than the eternals, and more powerful. Looking at the powergrids for both characters, Galactus is the stronger fighter. (Cannot post pictures on my buggy comp). You really think with all the resources and power galactus has he cannot trap or kill Thanos, really? For someone who can eat worlds, Thanos is simply a chewy piece of gum. Yes, with the heart of the universe, Thanos did defeat Galactus in battle, along with other celestial fighters, but Thanos also destroyed the heart of the universe and thus destroyed his only chance of winning. Thanos's plots always revolve around him getting superpowerful items to make himself into a god, Galactus is already as powerful. From a straightforward fighting perspective, Galactus is simply too much for poor little Thanos.
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: DevilLoss on June 13, 2011, 07:45:03 pm
thats the thing everytime thanos has fought glactus he utterly crushes him sure he has used items before but he got these through alot of diffculty making him even greater. just a note thanos could just starve glactus hes done it before he can do it again.
A cabal of cosmic beings of power, such as Eternity and the Living Tribunal prompted an assembly of nearly every super-being, god, and cosmic entity (such as Galactus and the Celestials) help take Thanos down. Dismissing them all, Thanos proved to be too powerful. He could even kill a Celestial with but a glance! Thanos decided that the true sign of his ultimate power would be to destroy the universe and become the one true supreme being. However, after doing so, he realized that this role was ultimately hollow, fulfilling and empty, not to mention unnatural. He subsequently undid the destruction of the universe and obliterated the Heart from existence. Thus, not only did he strip himself of power, but he made the entire series of events null and void.
More on Marvel.com: http://marvel.com/universe/Thanos#ixzz1OqDg0yR4

he defeated every cosmic entity and god when they all cam at him including galactus not only that but hes immortal and would easily be able to deafet glactus by just starving him of planets to feed.

the Surfer warned Galactus of the mad Titan Thanos, made virtually omnipotent by the Infinity Gems. Galactus scoffed at this threat until Thanos mocked him by eliminating a planet upon which Galactus had intended to feed.
More on Marvel.com: http://marvel.com/universe/Galactus#ixzz1OqJYFOx5

in the end it is just a simple task of thanos getting some awsome mystical cosmic power and then just bashing glactus into infinity.
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: gavsword on June 13, 2011, 08:55:31 pm
So your saying is all thanos has to do to win is go get a super powerful cosmic item? Okay, I win. If your goal is to starve galactus until you can kill him upfront, then all galactus has to do is A.) Kill him now. B.) Get the cosmic power items before thanos and kill him later. C.) Eat him for poops and giggles or D.) Kill him now

Unfortunatly your entire argument is based around thanos gaining a cosmic item. Otherwise you have no basis and galactus just wins. The only time he has shown enough power to "starve" galactus is when he does have the item. Alone, thanos is no threat to the eater-of-worlds.
Title: Re: Comic book Character battle thread
Post by: DevilLoss on June 13, 2011, 10:32:09 pm
thanos can still easily starve glactus without a powerful cosmic item. he has his starship, Sanctuary II. so he can easily follow glactus around and to beat galactus all thanos has to do is get the ultimate nullifier which he had before. not only that there no way to truly kill thanos but galactus is not immortal therefore its only a matter of time before galactus is destroyed from his own hunger. not only that but thanos can project a psionic blast of energy as well as blasts of plasma/cosmic energy from his eyes and hands. so he can eaasily corrupt the energy of galactus since galactus is just universal/cosmic energy
The future Galactus and his starship were re-created simultaneously with the embodiments of Eternity and Death, though he drifted inert for billions of years while new life began to populate the universe. The starship crashed on an unnamed planet, where Ecce The Watcher saw its occupant emerge as raw energy so therefore thanos only has to capture that energy in a pocket universe or somethign else and Galactus is outta here.
not only that Thanos has become omnipotent several times (or Semi-omnipotent anyway). Cosmic Cube, Infinity Gauntlet, Terraforming Force, Map of All Ending + Illumination Stone (took Odin-force Thor to stand up to him), and HotU Thanos. He had the Reality Gem at one time, with which he could warp the entire universe. Pretty much any time Thanos hatches a plan, the universe is on the brink of collapse.

found some epic pictures of actaul comic pages showing how powerful thanos is
Thanos has shields that've withstood attacks from both Galactus and Omega, a Thanosi clone of Thanos/Galactus that was stated to be twice as powerful as Galactus and confirmed by Genis-Vell's cosmic awareness.

and one of thanos absorbing all kinds of energy

so literaly galactus would be destroyed by thanos and if thanos gets ahoold of any of the items he's had before then he would just obliterate galactus into nothing

Because that was an alternate reality, and they just went back to their own. The ultimate nullifier destroys the reality.

Perhaps I should make certain conditions for each battle or something, good idea though.

GALACTUS WINS!!! congratulations

Now waiting on next contendents:

SPECIAL RULE FOR THIS NEXT BATTLE:

No IMMORTAL characters, no SUPER POWERS, just normal people with skillz or slightly enhanced biology (example: batman, daredevil, Wolverine, etc.)

Super powers fall into the category of people such as Superman, Jean grey, Storm, Wonder woman, etc.

normal skills or enhanced biology are applied to things such as Intelligence and fighting ability (ex: batman) or enhanced regeneration/metal body parts for an example which does not prevent someone from getting killed easily by physical means (ex: Wolverine = enhanced cellular regeneration and metal parts/adamantium)

good luck.

Um...I'd have to disagree with your definitions. For example, the theory behind some powerful abilities(I'll use Professor X for an example) is still enhanced something. His mind is simply enhanced to the point where he can read people's minds, or even control them.

What about Flash, wouldn't he technically only have his speed enhanced? Yet I would certainly classify that as a super power. How about a cyborg, or alien whose race gives them extra abilities over humans?

Anyway, I would suggest one of two things: (1) remove the part about super powers. The Immortal rule would still remove those like Superman, Wonder Woman, Galactus, etc. It would allow certain others in that you mentioned, but if you don't like that, then do number (2) tighten the rules about super powers. Something like...no genetic modifications, only skills. True, this would exclude Wolverine, but honestly...he has super powers, he shouldn't be allowed.

Your choice, just my thoughts.

Remember though, professor X developed the powers on his own, that is not classified as a Bio genetic enhancement because they came naturally, Wolverine is a good example of a biologically enhanced being because thats just what he simply is, he never grew these powers on his own, although i still may have to exclude him since i only said "slightly", he has a heavy modification so I guess he is too much.

Flash is classified as Super power aswell because he was not genetically enhanced by someone else but by something which were some super charged atoms of a radioactive liquid that gave him his powers.

but You are right, I should tighten them up a bit.


MODIFIED RULES FOR THIS BATTLE:


No immortal or celestial beings, NO POWERS, only skillz. (ex: Batman, Green arrow, The Punisher, etc.)

It's a moot point, now, but Woverine's abilities are sort of as natural as Professor X's. Well, kind of. The metal does make him a good deal more dangerous...but the healing, and claws, and animal senses are all natural. But like I said, it doesn't matter at this point.

Yeah but those were bone claws, theyd break anyday, his main powers are taken note of when they are enhanced biologically, instead of bone, adamantium, all over his body, plus increased regeneration rate,  henceforth his main abilities are biogenetically engineered ones.

The regeneration rate was not increased, that was completely natural. Unless you're going off the Ultimates universe(which is messed up, by the way), in which case all mutants were artificially engineered.
