Every Wednesday at 12PM PST, Facebook and Twitter erupt into open combat as fans talk out "who'd win" in a battle between two well known geek-worthy parties, one starting every half hour. Wikipedia links are included to refresh memories on what everybody is capable of, and then it comes down to fans and the fight! Winners are listed in bold. #whodwin Wednesday!
One of our favorite posters welcomed a new child into the world this week, so in honor, we had an all underage battle royale, starting with Tim Drake Wayne versus James "Bucky" Barnes (WW2 version)!
- Gotta give it up to Bucky!!! Older and far more skilled than Mr. Drake. 🙂
- Tim Drake. Tim Drake has beaten Lady Shiva. Without training he deduced the identities of Batman and the original Robin. He was called by Ra's al Ghul a "formidable opponent." Tim Drake has done more before the age of 15, than Bucky did his whole life. Tim Drake wins, hands down.
- That tells me that Lady Shiva isn't all she's cracked up to be. 🙂
- If you're only using WWII Bucky, it's an easy win for Drake.
- She trained Tim Drake. Tim was trained by more than just Batman. Not to mention at the age of at age he deduced who Batman/Robin were. Not to mention, he is dubbed as being "the greatest stick fighter in the DC universe."
- I find that hard to believe, considering how many DC characters there are. But that's just me.
- I understand your reservation. But read "Battle for the Cowl" and that series where he takes on the League of Assassins and I guarantee it will change your mind.
- Bucky was basically a boy commando who took no prisoners. He was trained to kill. Tim was trained by Batman to take out killers. Bucky was only portrayed as a bad ass after his return from the dead. Tim was a thinking man's bad ass before he left Batman's side as previous Robins had done. I give Tim the win.
- Tim Drake!
- I want to give it to Bucky, I want to give it to Bucky, I want to give it to Bucky … darn it … c'mon guys he heped train the Black Widow!! Do we give no consideration for the handicapped around here?? Dude's got on arm … aaarrgh!! Drake wins.
- WW2 Bucky was NOT the winter soldier. A modern Tim Drake, as Red Robin, vs WW2 Bucky, Robin wins. But Red Robin against Winter Soldier, I'd give it to Bucky.
- "I would dispose of that water carrying army brat far more easily than Drake could ever hope to!" Sorry — it just always cracks me up when he calls him "Drake."
Bad girls go head up when the foul-mouthed Hit-Girl takes on the goth stylings of Black Alice (who, coincidentally, is not Black).
- Hit-Girl, she has no powers to steal, she is a trained Kick-Ass fighter. A better fight for her would have been Cassandra Cain. But Hit Girl wins. Also, Hit Girl has a movie.
- (after learning Black Alice keeps powers after people leave) OK, in that case, powers vs. no powers. Hard to beat someone with powers.
- Hit-Girl might be an expert assassin, but what's she gonna do when going up against Black Alice? That chick is a witch. She knows her magic and has taken on the Spectre's powers. Call me back when you get your own Wikipedia entry 'cause Black Alice owns this round.
- Black Alice FTW!!! She would kick the ever lovin' cheese outta Hit-Girl. Who was lame when she had to be saved by KickAss after she just about killed every thug in the city by herself.
- Black Alice!
- Even if Reggie Miller had psych issues, he can still score 7 points in 4 seconds. that's all you need for Black Reggie Miller to take down Larry Hit Girl Johnson.
- … adios girl in purple
- Black Alice. Just cause I dislike Millar's work. 😛
- Black Alice is basically an omega level power whos only weakness is her emo. She still powers up a squashes Hitgirl by accident in the middle of a breakdown.
When Spider-Man was a teenager was he rough and tumble enough to take down the furious fists of Malcolm Dragon? Fans say "yes!"
- Peter Parker gets all my love! His resume speaks for itself.
- Malcolm has Hulk-level strength potential and his powers resemble those of Electro. Spider-Man has taken down both the Hulk and Electro on several occasions. Poor Malcolm, 'tis a bleak future which lies ahead of ye should teen Spidey ever cross yer path …
- I gotta go with Peter Parker on this. Aside from his powers, his impressive intellect and ingenuity.
- Malcolm Dragon, if only to shut up all those "but you gotta self-publish if you want to be a real creator" people. We're looking at you Kirkman.
- This is a match???!! The spider dude sunk the Juggernaut in a building's cement foundation … heck the only thing Spidey hasnt beaten are inane plots … the fin head gets trumped by the webhead.
- Malcolm's been around longer. He's paid his dues. This new kid Spidey could be dead in a year.
- I'm torn on this, because I'm a huge "brains over brawn" guy, but Malcolm Dragon's not as stupid as the Hulk and not as greedy as some of the other folk Spidey's fought. If this is teenaged Peter Parker, he's still fleshing things out, and doesn't have a wife to live for. Moreover, while really intelligent, he doesn't have the science training he got at uni, and I don't give him the credit to have the foresight to take down a tougher foe that isn't a mindless bruiser. I gotta go Malcolm Dragon on this.
Now he's been de-aged, Young Loki can test his mischief against the relentless wrath of Kid Karnevil in a showdown of bad guys who can't buy booze!
- Dude has no powers, Loki kicks his ass
- Loki, again seniority. 🙂
- Karnevil is one vicious little sadist. I hated his sorry Nazi self like crazy when he back-stabbed Mr. T (nope, the other one) in the pages of JSA. You'd think that young Loki wouldn't stand a chance. Right. I picture Loki not even bothering to conjure up a spell on this looney toon. Instead, he'd manipulate someone like Ulik the Troll into tearing Karnevil apart. Make a wish now, Jeremy … SNAP!
- Asgardian skin and tissue density wins out easily…Karnevil cant even scratch Lil' Loki (a new rapper on the scene? Nevermind … you can kill me for that one)
- Loki would use hypnosis on Karnevil and have the brat tear himself a new ear in his guts.
- Lil Loki, that sh** is hilarious … name of the first album is God on the Lo Key. Tracks include, "If I Ruled Midgard," "Sif Ain't Nothin but a B****" and "Please Mjolnir Don't Hurt Em."
- Loki would have won this before Karnevil knew a fight was coming
Thanks go out to new dad Rasheed Townes (who inspired today's theme), Khalil Asadullah, Dreamkiller Jenkins, Joseph Tages (that ill Wikipedia quote above), Jason Smith, Damion Gonzales, Richard Evans, A. Darryl Moton and our rock, Kimberly Moore.
