B dot Rob
I'm going with Orion 9/10. It's closer then the win ratio suggests though.....

Horrificus
BRB is a more dangerous opponent that Thor. Nobody like ssaying that, but it is true.
BRB was able to beat Thor BEFORE he even got his own magic hammer and Thor-like powers.
BRB takes Orion.

General Kon-El
Orion 6/10

juggernaut66666
Orion with astro force takes this

Zack M
Orion 6/10.

nwg202
Orion due to Mother box + Astro force

Blue Area Vet
Bill due to Stormbreaker, and Orion is pretty much a herald jobber.

i'm surprised at the results here. the hammer could easily block or absorb the AF. strength, skill are basically equal. MB would be some help, but rarely plays a direct hand in his 1 on 1 battles. i'd lean towards bill here, like i would thor, in a very close match. maybe 5.5/10 for bill.

DarkSaint85
I take Bill. Orion has an MB, but Stormbreaker is used better.

Going to side with Bill. This is one of those fights that would be epic to see if it was well-written, however, with either being capable of taking the win.

Orion is stronger. I don't see Bill going h2h with Superman or Darkseid like Orion does.

Galan007
Meh, Orion's lost more of his battles with Supes than he's won... He's close to Superman's level, but not quite there.

That said, he and Bill should be ~ in terms of strength.

Darkseid, I kinda ignore, if only because of the whole 'fated to kill him' thing. Like Drax and Thanos.

Orion is tied to Darkseid. Bill is tied to Thor. Both go toe to toe with their respective parties. Bill has Stormbreaker and could well absorb the Astroforce.

Orion has never lost a fight with Superman in h2h AFAIK. The way he was the only leaguer to even be able to stand up to sunamped Superman in KOTW when it took Diana, J'onn, Superboy, Supergirl, Steel and Barda to momentarily restrain him, I can't see Bill ever doing that against Superman.

Yes, Superman is stronger but then he is stronger than pretty much every Herald level being. There is a huge gap between Superman and Thor/BRB in strength. Orion is in between.

Drax actually weakens Thanos. Orion doesn't. Originally posted by Blue Area Vet

Darkseid will probably manhandle Thor/Bill together in h2h.

DarkSaint85
So IYO, Orion = Superman in strength/durability, as he has never won nor has he ever lost?

I mean, if Superman> Orion, then he should beat him, no?

Orion is skilled enough to bridge the gap between strength. That's why he can fight Darkseid to equal terms when Darkseid is strong enough to manhandle him with one hand on several occasions.

He is the Dog of War after all.

How does Drax "weaken" Thanos and what does that have to do with the price of tea in China? If you are talking about the special ability to kills Thanos that surfaced in Annihilation, that is clearly a result of him being specifically created to kill Thanos.

And yes, the astro-force is potent. But Orion doesn't use it half as much as he should do - he just blasts, and screams, and punches.

Is BRB still a cyborg? Can the MB take him over?

That's what I just said, dumb ass. It's not a measure of Drax's overall power, it's a showing of a specific power which is completely irrelevant to the debate.

Ares is God of War of a specific pantheon. Orion is not.

Prove he was messaging his own ego. What's next, Superman saying Thor was his toughest opponent ever was "hyperbole?" Last I checked, Thor didn't bring out one tenth of the amount of whoopass he's capable of in that fight. Was it even raining? laughing out loud You saw the respect Thor got when his people dropped what they were doing to being the living **** out of Superman, prison style. Remember gay ass Aquaman had to save him?

Yes, he holds back a lot. He even said this in his battle with Superman, IIRC. Astro Force can also absorb energy and redirect it. Orion's feat of absorbing the bomb (forgot the name) that was meant to destroy the universe is above anything Bill has done.

Correct, but per the Abby rules, he is likely to dismiss this as "hyperbole." The clear gist of the scene was that Superman surprised Thor with his power and in that surprised, landed a K.O. Thor later said things would go differently in a rematch now that he has a handle on Superman's power. That's what the hell happened regardless of all Abby's unsightly gyrations.

It was a young Superman and it was flat out stated that Orion surprised him with the power.

Later he withstood the entire power of Omega Sanction without being koed.

@Darksaint, Bills cyborg body was destroyed at the end of the Stormbreaker mini. He was then resurected into a new body that was equally as powerful as his pld one. He even had a base form. Marvel has continuity issues due to the laziness of its new writers.

That's just the stupidest
thing I've heard. I've never discarded Orion being fated to kill Darkseid as something unrelated to strength or used Drax killing Thanos as a feat for Drax.



Haha, what? Both JLA/Avengers and DC Vs Marvel are canon. They are not usable here but that's not the same as being non canon.

As opposed to marvel fanboys going off on imaginary versions of characters? At least what I'm using is on panel.

Honestly , it makes me feel sorry for you, but only for about 5 seconds or so. You bringing everything on yourself. Thor and Superman were obviously both not going all out or one would have either killed or severely injured the other and neither was the case. So back to the FACT regarding Busiek's words through both Superman and Thor, what occurred was quite clear. You just refuse to accept it because of your zealotry and every board vet knows it.

I was just listing Marvel characters off the top of my head that I could think of with comparable objective strength feats.

On the DC side, there's several who has consistently been portrayed as strength peers w/ Superman but may not have objective strength feats, such as Captain Marvel, Black Adam, and Orion. They have direct comparisons to Superman though, unlike Marvel's side.

Peers as in exact equals or in the vicinity? They certainly fall well short when it comes to raw strength feats. I'm betting Thor has even better raw feats than the ones you listed. He's had some showings where he's in the vicinity or even equal to Hulk(imo Hulk has the edge). And as far as Hyperion goes, pretty sure you know of their bro force showing which has them depicted pretty much as peers.

Yeah, I give it to him no more than 6/10. Would be an awesome fight, but once both unleash their attacks, I see Orion's as a tad more powerful.

Orion says Kalibak is his equal in strength, but not his equal as a fighter. And you can see it.

http://s1199.photobucket.com/user/Delta1938/library/Comparing/Heroes/Orion/Kalibak/JKFW9

Starts the fight without his skills, not even a warrior nature, against Valkyra, who is pretty hyped up in fighting skills. He starts winning when his old self is back, until the fight is interrupted.

http://s1199.photobucket.com/user/Delta1938/library/Comparing/Heroes/Orion/Valkyra

Darkseid is MUCH stronger than Orion.

http://s1199.photobucket.com/user/Delta1938/library/Comparing/Villains/Darkseid/Orion/FOUNDATIONS

Even when, technically Orion should have been stronger than normal.

http://s1199.photobucket.com/user/Delta1938/library/Comparing/Villains/Darkseid/Orion/JKFW6

But Orion's fighting skills have compensated against Darkseid.

Let's assume Ares should get similar credit for fighting skills as Orion. Ares is what? At least a tier below Hercules/Thor/Bill in strength? Where Orion is stronger than them in addition to his fighting skills, making this an unintentionally faulty comparison at best, dishonest strawman at worst.

Stormbreaker can redulpicate Mjohlnr abilities, it was forged out of the same mold enchanted with the Odin force, your really getting technical


It's 50/50 it's that simple

Orion has actually accomplished said feats. If you show BRB doing them, then I'll concede.

Could go either way.

It's stated on panel stormbreaker is mojhlnr equal by Odin, it's 50/50 it will come to h2h which it will give Orion a slight since he's more skilled like Thor, BRB tenacity will make this a fight period

Zack M
Yes, we got that, but BRB doesn't use those tactics in battle. We can't use them. Orion does, which is why I gave him the versatility edge. He also holds a speed edge, too.

It's 50/50 like I been saying, either of them slip up its lights out for one of them

Let's go with it is equal to Mjolnir due to what Odin stated. What has Bill done, or Thor done that you can argue Bill would do, for you to think this evens up?

Also, Orion is stronger than Bill, as well.

Their equal in strength

I'd give Orion the slight edge in strength, speed, and combat experience.

One: You didn't answer my question. Two: "They're." Three: What examples make you think that?

the Darkone
By his feats, they are equals it's 50/50

I like both, at the end of the day it's 50/50

Zack M
BRB isn't as versatile as Orion. Unless he has the feats.

Because BRB hardly has any.

That's not how it works. The only reason we're going around in circles is because you're refusing to answer my questions, that are, ya know, part of the debate.

Your response is telling me this is what you want instead of what you can back. If you don't want to debate, why even reply?

I'm talking about versatility feats such as transmutation, telepathy, invisibility, or intangibility. When has Bill used those abilities due to stormbreaker? Darkone is avoiding the question, so it makes it seem he hardly has any. stick out tongue

How often has Orion used those?

Bill has used lightning, weather attacks, energy blasts, teleportation(offensively), magnetism, energy drain, gravity manipulation, shields, transmutation(not offensively), energy tracking, etc... And even crazier things like enforcing the boundaries of reality(prevent them from breaking)...


This fight, Orion will be blasting/punching and Bill will be hammering/punching 90% of the time.

The hammer stormbreaker can do what moljhner can, BRB has absorb energy. Has BRB has done the as Thor no, can he yes.


Stormbreaker is moljhner equal, so it's within its ability

I've seen him use it many times. He may not use them often, but that's why I give Orion the SLEIGHT edge in versatility.

Weather? Orion has done that in Simonson's run. Teleportation? Orion teleported the bug colony, killing them. Force fields? Orion also used that in Simonson's run when he was blocking Darkseid's OE attack.

Look them up yourself,

Simson run
Stormbreaker
BRB Godhunter
Star Masters
Omega flight
And other appearances

Rage was more acknowledgedable on Thor than me, I could hold my own

You said he hardly has any.

How have you seen him use versatility many times if you just said he doesn't use them often?

How did he manipulate weather?

How did he teleport the bug colony?

In what way do these two things help him win a fight against BRB?

How did he manipulate weather and teleport the bug colony? Mother box, irrc. I also believe the Astros force was also able to manipulate gravity and magnetism. But I think you know those.

If Orion can go intangible, how would BRB harm him?

He hasn't done it on panel. He attempted, but some Apokalyptan tech jammie prevented him from doing so Iirc...

Yeah, he was going to do it because the army that was going to attack him cornered him in. But that's still counts. I think the MB can pretty much do anything. Most of the things will probably be negated due to Stormbreaker, buy my point still stands that Orion is slightly more versatile.

I'd also give him fighting ability, strength, and speed.

I was merely pointing out that Bill is one of the most versatile heralds out there since you claimed he barely has any.

Strength and speed is prolly a wash.

Mother Box being jammed slipped his mind. He should be able to do it unless Scott Free's Mother Box is different, though he normally doesn't try it(he was actually posing as Scott at the time). Haven't read through NEW GODS V2(or 3, or 4 depending on how you count the reprint series and RETURN OF revival), so dunno if he did it under normal circumstances there.
