I'd say Superman since he has more low showings against bricks than Thor.

Shaggy Man/General
Konvikt
Solomon Grundy
Doomsday

Also, the fact that a brick killed Superman, I'd say that tops all Thor's bad showings against bricks.

A subway train. 131

A brick is generally used for characters who are strong, durable, but also not versatile(being limited to H2H) and not fast, at least that from my experience is Carver's definition of it.

Doomsday is quite fast in the reflex department.

Rulk isn't a brick, he's god.

Considering that Thor would lose to most of those guys, that's not too bad.

Hulk. Nuff said. Superman would never lose the way Thor did.

It's who has the worst low showings, it doesn't matter if the people who beat Supes would beat Thor too.

Hasn't Thor beaten him a few times before? From what I heard from one of my friend's, Thor put him down with a lightning bolt.

Thor mite actually have more wins against the Hulk, if not, its pretty even.

Rulk vs Thor was stupid considering Leob is a Rulk fanboy.

DoS Doomsday was not dead. Hunter/Prey picks up where DoS left off. Doomsday was still tied to that big cone shaped rock with Cyborg Supes attached to his back.

Yes, I'm sure that's it. If one character fights a brick for an entire book, until they're both at the end of their stamina and ability, and both in critical states of injuries, and one dies...

It's a worse showing than a character getting smacked around to the point of unconsciousness, and then being left because the attacker, completely unphased, didn't give a shit?

Clearly you're right.

Aster Phoenix
Does Monarch count as a brick? Cause the supermen could do nothing against him.

This discussion is actually much more material based (as it's judging one event vs. another), than most of these matches, which rely entirely on how a character is likely to act in a given situation.

My opinion was that one showing was worse than another... getting beaten to a pulp by someone grinning is worse than stalemating that person.

It's pretty basic, and is backed by comics.

Even if you were right in your assessment there, that can still be backed up by comics.

I'm going to jump to conclusions and assume you're talking about the vs. forum... in which case, I completely disagree.

You can play with semantics all you like, but whether always or most of the time, it's still wrong.

At least, in comparison to this discussion, which was the context of that quote.

Have to agree with Smurph, not sure why there really is a comparison between the two events as Superman actually gave Doomsday a serious fight, but you can't say the same for Thor. Heck, even Wendigo did better against Rulk.

Wasn't Superman one-shotted a couple times from some bricks?

Anyway, the Rulk showing isn't a bad showing, but if we only take into account the word 'brick' then I guess it could be classified as one here... anyway, that's only one.

It's worse than all of Thors bad showings because Thor was never killed at the hands of a brick.

He was dead, that's why Supes couldn't put him down the second time around.

Where are you getting he was dead? It was never mentioned anywhere.

kakuzu
Super has been taken down by caveman at one time. Others he was laid low by a simple punch from batman.

Thor has used his fighting skills even when not needed and has been hit by human but never hurt.


I'd give it to superman. In his early years they would do just about anything to make him look strong even if it meant beating a rather large robot that had nothing special about it. What I mean by this is that the robot was just large and had claws. Usually they are now indestructible, they keep coming back, they have and unlimited power supplly, made mystically etc...

I agree. Just because he is red doesn't mean he shouldn't have been able to hold up against blows with enough force to dent caps shield. That was a dc writer I believe that wrote that comic anyway lol. I guess he got some pay back on Thor.

Lois Lane says he's dead and Superman agrees (as he killed him) but says that a dead body could be just as dangerous.

thor was shocked when red hulk didn't explode from the impact of mjolnir hitting his skull, after all asgard is full of bricks and asgardian gods beat on them for shit and giggles. red hulk not getting ko'd was a completely new experience for thor.
