Should be Firelord, but Iceman seems to have been made ridiculous recently.

CasanoVa
Firelord.

Easily.

Acrosurge
Firelord disintegrates Iceman completely in a single blow. Iceman eventually reforms. Rinse, wash, repeat... until Firelord drags Bobby into deep space, disintegrates him, and uses the Power Cosmic to prevent water molecules from reforming.

If this is a stalemate, its completely one-sided in Firelord's favor.

Iceman burns out his flames and freezes him in so much ice he will never break free.

Firelord is an herald, Bobby has no chance against any decent user of the Power Cosmic.

Heralds of Galactus are above omega level mutants. See Cable-God vs. Silver Surfer.

with PIS off, Firelord without a doubt.

That arc where Bobby was freezing Stranger's eyebeams was a low point in the history of comics.

How hot are Firelords flames?
Is it fire at all or just hot cosmic blasts?
How hot can it get?
How doees Firelord drag Bobby into deep space?

I need to hear better arguements than "Firelord burns Iceman to a crisp.", "Firelord has the power cosmic and the power cosmic > mutants." or "Firelord takes him to space...."

Does Firelord have matter manipulation powers?

Board Walker
Im arguing for Iceman.

Iceman at his highest showings thus far, has been beyond herald level.

He really wrecked the stranger.

Then again, how do u stop heralds from simply turning off Iceman's mutant gene? Firelord has bad showings, but he still posseses the power cosmic. PC may be a plot device in some eyes, but it still grants Firelord a variety of ways to simply disable Bobby's powers. Then again, in theory, so did Stranger lol. That comic was just a joke.

their is no gene for FL to manipulate, omega iceman transcended his physical being.

Uhhh heralds can turn off mutant genes?confused

Did they all display that or was it stated that they all could do it?

Did this really happen? If so, that's just stupid. Iceman's powers are not unique at all. From what I gather, Stranger can control subatomic particles, atoms, molecules, etc. In other words, if Iceman tries to rob something of its heat to slow down molecular movement to reduce temperature, Stranger can very easily counter this. Heck, Iceman<Sersi. I honestly think Iceman being Omega is PIS. Look at the PF. Jean is an omega mutant because she can wield the PF. PF is to Jean as Excalibur is to King Arthur. That is the kind of power that can match and beat abstracts. To put Iceman's potential at that level is ridiculous considering the powerset he has. He can't manipulate matter or atoms or subatomic particles or anything.

Soljer

Oh yeah. Her powerset beats Iceman's by leaps and bounds. Heck, even Magneto's powerset are more impressive than Iceman's. Apacolypse's is too. There are a number of mutants who should have been considered for omega before Iceman. Selene is arguably another one. Same holds true for Sienna Blaze.

Iceman's powers, I don't care how strong he gets in them, are not the kind that can beat heralds or abstracts. Firelord's powerset beats Iceman's hands down because of the inherent nature of the powers of the two characters. Storm's powerset can if wielded on a big enough scale could very conceiveably beat a herald or an abstract. She controls the forces that governs the universe. Iceman can merely absorb heat and has moisture control. Technically, she could do everything Iceman can do and a whole lot more.

Marvel putting Iceman's potential on this level is really a very foolish thing that doesn't make sense.

It doesn't matter how hot FL becomes, Iceman can stop him completely, in other words, absolute zero.

He wrecked the stranger, not just his eye beams, but the entire stranger himself.

Iceman has also shown he can spread his consciousness to anything and become it, such as the stranger's ship.

There has to be moisture for him to spread his consciousness to. Outside of that, anyone who can manipulate matter at the subatomic level can very easily get rid of the moisture in the area or if they can control moisture themselves, they can fight him over it.

Heat does work against Iceman, BTW. If a character can generate heat or in anyway accelerate molecular movement, it can counter Bobby's power. It would come down to who can overpower whom and who can wield their powers in greater quantity. However, IIRC, FL has matter manipulation too. That means he can turn Bobby into a turnip and end the fight that way and won't have to use his heat-generating ability to try and overload Iceman's heat-pumping abilities.

i remember reading one of my books where iceman and HT go at it. iceman got his butt kicked. trying to find it which one it is exactly. i think it was an uncanny xmen issue. il check

Agreed

Why should I assume that Bobby's powers are greater then the Human Torch or Firelord or anybodies whose abilities agitate molecules? Fire starters do the exact opposite of Iceman, so this would more then likely come down to a battle of wills.

Can Bobby win ----- maybe ----- but this is not a sure thing

This is not true, Iceman spread his consciousness to the stranger's tech and controlled it, their was no moisture in that tech, he moved through the strangers ship to all parts of instantly, he wasnt using the moisture to move.

Secondly sub molecular control will do nothing to iceman, as iceman himself is intangible, he is the one controll everything sub molecular, the stranger has extreme sub molecular control and Iceman out powered him in that respect.

IIRC, there was even some moisture in his tech. It mayhave been collected humidity or what-have-you. Can scans be posted with the explanation. I have not read the story since it came out. From what I remembered, it had to do with water what Iceman did. If that is the case, then Stranger was written down here.

And what works against Iceman more is FL is not limited by just trying to suck in enough heat/generate enough heat/agitate the molecules themsevles to try and overcome Iceman, he has has atomic manipulation like Sersi on top of it. FL is more powerful than Sersi. He can come at Iceman that way as well. His powers are far more versatile and potent than Iceman's. Iceman's powers are too limited to be battling cosmics.

Kurash
until its proved that FL has matter manipulation, which im just sayin it does but no ones brought up hard evidence to prove he does and its not listed as a power of his on any websit, i dont see him countering absolute zero of any of the other powers iceman has displayed at his best showings

TricksterPriest
The thing is, it doesn't have to be proved. IT'S THE FREAKING POWER COSMIC. laughing Plus, he's got stuff like that in his respect thread, so the point is moot.

Bobby's power is one dimensional. It's a very good dimension, but still one dimensional. Firelord on the other hand, despite his primary ability being seemingly one dimension, is very versatile. Power cosmic is essentially a plot device power, it's almost as bad as magic. Now, before Annihilation, I'd have said Bobby had a shot of pulling out 3/10 wins. maybe 4. Having seem FL when he's pissed off and reading his respect thread, has changed my mind, to say the least.


Firelord 10/10. Unless he pulls another SMvsFL, he really shouldn't lose this one.

So because its the power cosmic, that automatically means he has matter manipulation? You'll have to excuse me for not taking your word for it. I went through his respect thread and didnt see any matter manipulation feats. If you can get those scans it would be appreciated. Maybe i missed something.

Endless Mike
It's part of the powerset. It's like saying a specific Kryptonian doesn't have heat vision just because you haven't seen them demonstrate it.

Or a specific human doesn't have a gall bladder just because you've never seen it.

Absolute Zero, that's right, because Firestorm doesn't fly through Space and all that.

Firestorm can manipulate matter, this is a win.

nvrbeenwthagirl
When did Firelord Get matter manip? To my knowlege ONly surfer really does that of the heralds. Until the heralds use said abilities, It can't be counted that all of them have the same powers or even the same skills with the powers. I don't doubt that surfer could make cosmic fire, but he isn't going to be doing it in any way that is even comparible to firelord. So much bullshit when it comes to the power cosmic and the heralds. It's sickening. If Firelord is not more powerful than the stranger, then he can go down the same way the stranger did. Cosmic Fire or not. He isn't a matter manip, he isn't a telepath he isn't magic. Those are the things I see beating Omega Iceman.

You know what I've heard a lot of people talking about Iceman doing absolute zero but then again I've never actually seen Iceman do Aboslute Zero before

Blair Wind
A) Its firelord

B) Space is three degrees above absolute zero

jrodslam
Can someone show matter manipulation from Firestom? If he hasnt done it, im gonnna assume he cant and wouldnt consider it a useable tactic in getting a win here.

As far as Kryptonians go, i wont assume any Kryptonian can do heat vision off the bat. It may have to be learned or gained through puberty or something.

The difference is infinite in comparison to absolute zero and 1 degree above absolute zero.

Iceman has created absolute zero at least once, but he had help and didn't do it alone

Blair Wind
Not really. They both pretty much state that HT is just helping to make it faster. Iceman said he could do it, just didnt know if he could do it in the three seconds needed erm

And I know you better than that BW saying you could do something isn't doing it.

I mean has he ever done it before or since?

By the way what issue was that?
