Merlyn
Both of these guys have a bunch of powers to choose from, and I've heard that they can both choose whatever powers they want.

So.... who would win?

Galan007
mitch ftw.

harvey can supposedly choose powers, but as far as what he's actually displayed, none of it has been on par with mitch.

mitch has manifested abilities such as: general cosmic powers, strength greater then that of superman, quantum speed which is akin to flash's speed force, ability to dimension/time hop, the powers of a black hole, intangibility, teleportation, quantum blasts which disincorporate what they strike at the molecular level, shape-shifting/transformations, ability to literally become the terrain/elements, telepathy (both local, and 'deep range'), and of course, absolute immortality.

agreed

Resurrection Man's powers depend on his method of death, and resurrection.
Not really as versatile as Tangent Supes IMO.

Tangent Supes FTW

Not really as versatile as Tangent Supes IMO. the method in which RM dies, has nothing to do with what powers he gains. he can literally choose whatever ability he wants/needs. he is far more versatile than harvey, in terms of displayed abilities.

Ressurection Man has to die to get the powers he needs. Tangent for the Win. Once RM dies, That is a forum loss.

Once RM dies, That is a forum loss. it's part of RM's powerset to 'die/kill himself' (hence his resurrection device.) killing himself in that way simply does not equate to a forum loss. now, if harvey managed to kill him, then you'd have something.

If he kills himself, that is a self bfr. Harvey is going to just stand around while he dies? And If he doesn't start the match out with the right power, Then he's screwed by telepathic intrusion. RM is more powerful. But he doesn't have the right tools to win. Unless by chance he happens to have uber telepathy or something when the fight starts.

Unless by chance he happens to have uber telepathy or something when the fight starts. you act like it takes a long while for RM to 'die'/resurrect. it doesn't. when he uses the resurrection device he can (and has) manifested powers while still in a standing position. hell, he's manifested new powers before superman could even hit him (which is what superman was trying to do in the instance i'm referencing.) the amount of time it takes him to 'die'/manifest new abilities, is quite miniscule - and it's part of his standard powerset/tech. it certainly does not constitue a forum loss, not matter how much you want it to.

and knowing harvey's attacks are almost always TP-related, mitch could simply manifest TP-esque abilities as well. this would, at the very least, help him defend against any TP attacks harvey launched. couple that with things such as flash-like speed, greater than superman strength, the ability to time/dimension hop, intangibility, etc, etc..... point being, mitch certainly has the right 'tools' to win.

smile Since when does he get all of those abilities at once? If he gets Tp, he'd need to keep it just to fend of harvey. And would he be as skilled? harvey on the other hand can manifest abilities while in mid battle.

Self bfr? Killing himself is how he accesses his abilities i think for this battle we should allow him to kill himself.

harvey has a GL ring no?

Ressurection man was badass. I remember him.

Not at all. I just dont' see him necessarily getting the right four abilities at the start of the match. especially against someone who's TK shield can repel superman and who's telepathy can pwn an entire planet. And all wrapped up with a GL ring. That is some serious mojo to over come and get it right. the first time out the gate.

Harvey wins this without too much issue.

RM has an Achilles heel which would be all too easy for Harvey to exploit just as it was for Vandal Savage to exploit it.

His band is something that Harvey's technopathy could easily set to kill RM in an endless loop giving him the equivalent of a permanent seizure.

Galan007
and you know harvey is capable of doing this before RM puts him down? just like you know harvey is capable of affecting 853rd century tech?

also, lol at you saying it was 'easy' for savage to muck with the resurrector device... as if gathering RM's tektites is some easily accomplished task.

Hmm....Harvey's premonition perhaps?

He knew all about the Ultra Humanite instantly. His premonition also served well against his would be assassin.

Considering Tangent Earth is considerably more advanced that New Earth and a far weaker Harvey was able to do this:

He knew all about the Ultra Humanite instantly. His premonition also served well against his would be assassin. harvey's premonition must not be overly reliable, or it's not something he always uses. if it were, it sure would have come in handy when powergirl did this:

and when supes did this:

http://s2d1.turboimagehost.com/t/909713_tan1.jpg http://s2d1.turboimagehost.com/t/909714_tan2.jpg


in both of those instances, harvey utilized outside help (in the form of orion) to escape. my point here is that harvey is not this 'god among ants' that some people make him out to be. if supes/powergirl can tag his ass, so can RM. imho.

in those instances harvey already knew the problem, he however wasnt fighting superman and powergirl which is why he had orion and his powergirl deal with them, as he had concerns of his own

I never quite said Harvey was untouchable BUT the same things can be said for Resurrection man who had trouble with a far less powerful Vandal Savage. wink Big difference from Powergirl grabbing Harvey's clothes as he fought Superman. =-)

I must have decent premonition too since I knew those scans were going to come from a mile away.

Considering Steel was able to use the very same tech from that era, I don't see an issue here.

RESURRECTION MAN.

john allerdyce
resurection man wins.

some people just need to hop off tangents bone, he's powerful and all, but res man just has him outclassed.
