Black versus white

realism vs. personality less
loner vs. team player
hell vs. krypton
power vs. power

who wins?
you decide

BENITO
SPAWN would whip Superman's ass

dominic/wolf
what can spawn do besides throw chains

Mider
From what ive heard even when Spawn was not a god He could manipulate reality but had limitations this god like Spawn has no such limitations and became the ruler of Hell even killing His former Master Malbolga

I'm just curious what people think Superman is going to do to Spawn, At that rate, what is Spawn going to do to Superman? All Spawn needs to do is take superman into Hell, however, i doubt Spawn could pull that one off. There is no way Spawn can entrance Superman. these two would just beat the shit out of each other untill one of the two got bored. they could not do anything critical enough to each other. Even if supes did kill spawn, he would just keep comming back. Spawns chains and hell powers are NOT going to kill Superman.

Supes is vulnerable to magic. Whether normal Spawn could take him is debatable. God-Like Spawn would slay Superman's lame a$$ once and for all. smile

ragesRemorse
Spawn doesnt use magic, and he is no more powerfull than he ever was before. He just has more at his disposal. Dont forget that heavens assasins would porbably be all over his shit for fighting Superman.

brainchild81
How would you define Spawn's powers?

ragesRemorse
energy. spawns abilities are not merely manifested, they are fed from a source.

yep some fanboy's gonna come along and say superman though

But god-like spawn actually beat up Zeus or so I'm told.

There is nothing Spawn could do to Superman save transport him into hell. there is also nothing Superman can do to Spawn.

I hate Todd Mcfarlane

heres why:

ragesRemorse
He is a superb artist and a sensible writer, so what ever his business decesions or complications are, i dont care. As for promosing the various titles to his fans, i remeber that. He never promised or stated anything. He said he was working on new idea's that is all he said.

As far as his writing goes.....well I am glad you like it. Personally I have got far more pleasure out of the works of both Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman and I think if you asked most fans and critics above the age of 12 they would agree that along with Frank Miller you have the three most influential comic writers of all time. The fact the Mr Mcfarlane, who henceforth I will refer to as "The Toddler" as prevented one of Moores greatest works Miracleman being published for the last decade as meant a whole generation have been deprived of perhaps his greatest work. The fact the Toddler tried to lay claim to it prevented Gaiman writing new stories for the character and issue 25 onwards being published.

For more details and how the Toddler lost in court see here

for another losing day in court for the toddler and more questionable ethics see here

y.html

for more on the Toddler try a google search on "Todd Mcfarlane Miracleman Gaiman Lawsuit" or "Todd Mcfarlane creditors" or "Todd Mcfarlane Tony Twist" or "Todd Mcfarlane owes money"

He is not a nice man

Keep the faith

ragesRemorse
who the hell ever compared mcfarlene to moore in the first place? I just said i thought he was asensible writer and that is more than can be said for %80 of todays writers. I could give a flip less what he has screwed people out of with miracleman. His accompishments with Spawna nd spiderman are far greater than anything moore would have done with yet another pansy in tights.


Besides i think you forget that there is always two sides to every story, and in the case of a miracleman who cares? In that article it says Mcfarlene bought the rights to miracle man, and was going to give them to moore for owed royalties from Spawn. this is to much arguing for a character i could care less about.

Well I could care about it, as it was far superior to Spawn, at least in the eyes of most who have actually read both roll eyes (sarcastic) Its easy though to have opinions on things you have never read. Well done!! big grin

Truncated version

Madness or modernity?: The Holocaust in two Anglo-American comics


Robert Eaglestone

Royal Holloway, University of London


Abstract:


This article looks at the ways in which the two Anglo-American comics, Desert Peach and Miracleman, explain the Holocaust. I highlight their differences from Maus, the starting point for nearly all discussions in English about comics and the Holocaust. Donna Barr's Desert Peach is about the fictional younger brother of Erwin Rommel, the 'Desert Fox'. The stories are rather like a World War II German version of M*A*S*H. However, her account of the Holocaust offers the widely accepted and widely criticized 'good German' story: that, although the SS and Nazi High Command were perpetrators in the genocide, the 'Honourable' German army were bystanders who did not commit atrocities. Her basically liberal paradigm means that 'Nazi madness' is the only explanation. In contrast, Alan Moore's superhero allegory, Miracleman suggests that there is an inextricable alliance between modernity and the death camps. By highlighting the similarities between this and Adorno's discussion of the 'myth of the Enlightenment', I suggest that this story, in which blond Aryan superheroes take over the world is a conscious allegory for the Holocaust and is both a warning about the power of Enlightenment thought and an analysis of it.

If so I suggest you complain and ask the moderator to read this thread

Your Link actually talks about attempts to disrupt status quo not provide information about the creator of one of the characters being discussed.

Seriously, look at the poll.

If you select superman you're obviously a fanboy, even though it isn't specified which superman it is which does not restrict it to the obviously hand picked superman to intentionally beat down.

It's like starting a "Galactus vs. Jean grey thread" to piss off some of the phoenix fans. Particularly if the OP were to say that Galactus could just step on Marvel Girl. Which incarnation of Jean grey it was would be obvious by who the OP refers to even though they didn't specify until later.

Spawn has super speed, super strength, superhumanly acute senses, regeneration, an axe that can cut just about anything, necroplasm blasts, a shitload of weapons, chains that he can control mentally, and a lot of stuff I don't know about.

Mcfarlene single handedly pulled Spiderman out of a long sales slum, and put him at number one. Spiderman was more viscerale than ever, and almost completely revamped the artwork, save for the costume.

Mcfarlene started a popular comic LINE. He pushed the envelope on the standard of a superhero. He diddnt start the anti-hero , took it to places it had never been.

I know who miracleman is, but dont care.

roll eyes (sarcastic)You mean visceral big grin If you were talking biology, viscerale would be right, as in cranium viscerale.

As a dyslexic I work hard at my spelling smile

I see so Spawn is more of an anti hero than say Grendel (which was before spawn) wellllll. ok

I don't think pseudo bibical references and plotline makes for a "greater" level of anti heroing in the plotline at all. Killing something which many do not believe just further moves spawn into the realm of fantasy and reduces its attempts to be gritty.

I never said miacle man wasnt groundbreaking or violent. That appears to be what your trying to prove though. I was saying that Spawn was more of an anti hero than grendal. taking into consideration how angels are viewed, then i would say that slaying angels in cold blood while being fully aware is pretty god damn anti-heroic.
