DC vs, Marvel (1 Viewer)

[BigSteelThrill]

In a purely physical struggle, the Hulk would likely defeat Superman. Superman would win the first few minutes of the fight, but the Hulk would get madder and madder until eventually he was too powerful for Superman to handle.

They've fought before, and Superman won.

1) That was a fan based voting result.

2) That was the Dr Banner controlled Mild Hulk... not Rage Hulk.

 

[FUBAR]

I'd imagine that Marvel wouldn't have much of a response to The Green Lantern Corp and the Daxamites. If you're counting the other colored Lanterned Corps.....the fight would be over before it started.

*pfft* just break out a bunch of no.2 pencils to beat the Daximites.

Maybe they can solve the anti-life equation.

loneliness + alienation + fear + despair + self-worth ÷ mockery ÷ condemnation ÷ misunderstanding × guilt × shame × failure × judgment n=y where y=hope and n=folly, love=lies, life=death, self=dark side

All hail Darkseid.

great, you just killed all the weak minded folk.

I just read they are going to come out with a Batman vs Superman movie in 2016. There are rumors the dude Kelisi was married to in GoT is going to be Aquaman. I'm not sure what WB is thinking here. This sounds like another disaster with too many characters like the Batman with Arnold, Jim Carey, & Uma Thurman.

That is my major gripe about these large budget studio films. They cram way too much into 1 movie. The batman with Heath Ledger should of been 2 movies.

I think you're not fully understanding the target audience and goal of a large budget studio film.

They are looking to sell not only tickets, but toys, spin-offs, cartoons, merchandise, etc... nothing does that more than cramming too much crap into their movie.

And the target audience generally isn't the average comic book guy that is looking for a deep compelling story that stays true to the source material.

Same with the average book turned into movie..... if you want the compelling detail and quality slow burn story that's well fleshed out, there's a book for that.

Less than 200,000 people each month pick up an issue of any of the Batman comic books.... They have to sell these movies to MILLIONS of people that have NEVER read a comic.

Just throw his ### into outerspace. He can't fly....he'll eventually run out of oxygen and die....

I heard they retconned him and made him tougher. From what I've heard, he's one of the relatively few DC mainstays not averse to killing someone to defend himself or his kingdom.

Nope. Canon says he can survive completely unprotected in space for long periods of time. His ability to adapt to any environment is well documented not to mention his ability to repair damage to his body as it happens.. He even grew gills one time to survive underwater. Some day there will be no one left but the Hulk on an empty planet.

Vinny Chase would make a better Aquaman than Khal Drago IMO.

I believe the gills were in a graphic novel. And I know he also adapted when in space after he lost his breathing apparatus, I believe that was in World War Hulk. Heck he even has a gland in his body that keeps his lungs pressurized with oxygenated per fluorocarbon emulsion so that he doesn't suffer the effects of rapid decompression or nitrogen narcosis.

But still his powers suck

What are his powers nowadays? When I was growing up it was breathing underwater and command of all sea creatures (I think he had super strength too but am not sure).

well he is the king of atlantis. he can breath underwater and use his aquatic telepathy to command fish n stuff.

They tried to make him more bad-### in the comics and cartoons but I still always think of the SNL skit and even Big Bang theory = aquaman sux

I think being able to breath underwater and command sea life would be pretty cool IRL. Not sure how it helps fighting bad guys in Kansas but it would awesome surfing professionally in Hawaii.

Per Wiki, he's very strong since his body has adapted to immense water pressures, he can swim at 10,000 feet per second (almost 15,000 mph), can swim up Niagra Falls, can see in almost total darkness and his enhanced hearing apparently functions as a type of sonar. His communication with animals is said to be just projecting a desire into their brain, since most marine life lacks humanlike intelligence. His hand is back to normal since he was resurrected.

 

[Kal El]

I had some time to work out how I feel a Superman vs. fully enraged Hulk battle would play out, and while the Hulk is very strong and adaptable, Superman is stronger, and more importantly, he's faster. I saw a video clip talking about him making a round trip to the Sun and back to earth in under two minutes. For the record, light takes about eight minutes and change to make the one way trip, meaning that Superman can move at lightspeed x 8, at least. IIRC, he was fighting Wonder Woman at the time as well.

cyborg is also gonna have a brief appearance in that movie. But i dont think any of those characters will be featured much at all. They are clearly setting up for a Justice League movie.

And didn't he race the Flash to a draw at some point? So the Flash can travel faster than light too.

The modern Flash is faster than Superman, at least in a footrace. He might be faster than Superman's flight speed, as well.

If he controls roughly 70% of the Earth's surface as king of Atlantis, there's not a whole lot stopping him from bringing international shipping to a grinding halt. Not to mention that he's no slouch in the combat department, either.

Well he has super strength and his body should be very dense allowing him to take lots of damage. But he suffers in comparison to the rest of the pantheon. Kind of like Hawkeye in the Avengers. Yeah yeah arrows we get it thanks.

[Thunderlips]

AquaMan is very underrated....particularly on his home turf.

 

[Chaka]

I gotta be honest because being able to breathe underwater, control sea life, swim faster than the speed of sound and be tough enough to handle the pressure of the deepest parts of the oceans seems like one of the better IRL skill sets you could ask for. I get that it might not play in Kansas but...who ####### cares about Kansas?

I am a Marvel apologist through and through (Hulk >>>>>> Superman) but the Hawkeye comparison is a joke. I take Aquaman six days a week and twice on Sunday over Hawkeye and if you make a poll I don't think it would even be close.

Ugh. I really can't believe that I am defending Sea Man...er...I mean Aquaman. But darnit his powers are so much cooler than DCs horrible mishandling of his character, in general, and his costume specifically.

 

[Aerial Assault]

I just read they are going to come out with a Batman vs Superman movie in 2016. There are rumors the dude Kelisi was married to in GoT is going to be Aquaman. I'm not sure what WB is thinking here. This sounds like another disaster with too many characters like the Batman with Arnold, Jim Carey, & Uma Thurman.

That is my major gripe about these large budget studio films. They cram way too much into 1 movie. The batman with Heath Ledger should of been 2 movies.

hey aquaman, go talk to some fish!

I heard they retconned him and made him tougher. From what I've heard, he's one of the relatively few DC mainstays not averse to killing someone to defend himself or his kingdom.

yeah he lost a hand replaced with a hook, and has an eye patch, long hair and a beard. basically hes a pirate now

But still his powers suck

What are his powers nowadays? When I was growing up it was breathing underwater and command of all sea creatures (I think he had super strength too but am not sure).

My sons will discuss super powers, which ones we'd want, what we'd do with them, etc.

Best we've come up with for Aquaman is to put on one hell of a show at Sea World.

Then you and your sons aren't really that creative.

Totally agree. In the hands of the right writers, Aquaman is actually a pretty cool (and strong, fast and tough) hero. I'm guessing it was the SuperFriends that caused him to be an object of ridicule, but I never really understood it. He's recently been shown to be able to lift and toss a tank, so unless I'm not thinking of someone off the cuff, that would make him stronger than any JLA member except Superman, Wonder Woman, and Martian Manhunter/J'onn J'onzz. Then you add all the marine abilities.

So he's weaker than all of the Super heroes who have real powers.

FWIW, we were talking about fun stuff to do with his powers. Not trying to control exports.

Yup, except for Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkman, Atom, Firestorm, etc., etc., etc. Good catch.

In a purely physical struggle, the Hulk would likely defeat Superman. Superman would win the first few minutes of the fight, but the Hulk would get madder and madder until eventually he was too powerful for Superman to handle.

They've fought before, and Superman won.

1) That was a fan based voting result.

2) That was the Dr Banner controlled Mild Hulk... not Rage Hulk.

Just throw his ### into outerspace. He can't fly....he'll eventually run out of oxygen and die....

Nope. Canon says he can survive completely unprotected in space for long periods of time. His ability to adapt to any environment is well documented not to mention his ability to repair damage to his body as it happens.. He even grew gills one time to survive underwater. Some day there will be no one left but the Hulk on an empty planet.

I don't remember any of this.

I believe the gills were in a graphic novel. And I know he also adapted when in space after he lost his breathing apparatus, I believe that was in World War Hulk. Heck he even has a gland in his body that keeps his lungs pressurized with oxygenated per fluorocarbon emulsion so that he doesn't suffer the effects of rapid decompression or nitrogen narcosis.

Throw his ### into the sun then. If all that "adaptation" came after Doomsday...it's a little fugazi.

Already survived that.

Best we've come up with for Aquaman is to put on one hell of a show at Sea World.

If he controls roughly 70% of the Earth's surface as king of Atlantis, there's not a whole lot stopping him from bringing international shipping to a grinding halt. Not to mention that he's no slouch in the combat department, either.

Well he has super strength and his body should be very dense allowing him to take lots of damage. But he suffers in comparison to the rest of the pantheon. Kind of like Hawkeye in the Avengers. Yeah yeah arrows we get it thanks.

Still, Superfriends gave him a bad rap. Now if you want a lame aquatic hero, Namor the Sub-Mariner is the one you're looking for.

Namor was actually the very first comic produced by Timely Comics who went on to become Marvel Comics. He would be joined by Capt America and the Human Torch. Further Namor is generally regarded as the very first comic book anti-hero. Also his fight with the Human Torch were the first superhero on superhero fights in comics. Namor is truly a part of comic history.

Now on the powers side other than Namor being able to fly he and Aquaman are pretty much the same guy at this point.

In canon, or some sort of What If? type situation?

 

[NCCommish]

I think it was in Planet Hulk or World War Hulk. Which one escapes me right now.

 

[Thunderlips]

This might be a dumb question...but are character weaknesses in Elseworld and What If style books (stories I'm presuming that are outside canon....if there's even canon anymore) reflective of things that COULD happen in canon? To that if trure, per Old Man Logan, the Hulk most defintely be defeated....in a pretty mundane way.

What If's are generally considered non-canon I believe. Same with alternative universe type things. And really as Stan Lee has said about anything a character can or can't do, who is the writer?

Yup all that matters is the writer. Although I gotta say that Old Man Logan thing with the Hulk was pretty silly. I get that Logan has ridiculous healing ability and all but I saw an issue where some guy (Nitro, I think) literally burned him down to his adamantium skeleton, like zero flesh left, and he regenerated. It was very cool the way it was drawn and written but come on guys.

 

[Chaka]

BTW If you haven't read them the Planet Hulk and World War Hulk series are very good stuff. Highly recommend.

 

[Kal El]

I had some time to work out how I feel a Superman vs. fully enraged Hulk battle would play out, and while the Hulk is very strong and adaptable, Superman is stronger, and more importantly, he's faster. I saw a video clip talking about him making a round trip to the Sun and back to earth in under two minutes. For the record, light takes about eight minutes and change to make the one way trip, meaning that Superman can move at lightspeed x 8, at least. IIRC, he was fighting Wonder Woman at the time as well.

And didn't he race the Flash to a draw at some point? So the Flash can travel faster than light too.

The modern Flash is faster than Superman, at least in a footrace. He might be faster than Superman's flight speed, as well.

So Flash can travel faster than the speed of light.

Looks that way. He can tap into the Speedforce, which I'm fuzzy on, but if they can travel through time, one would think an element of speed is involved.

You're talking the android Human Torch, pre-Johhny Storm, correct?

Yep. Interestingly the original Torch started out as a "monster" and then morphed into a superhero.
