Apocalypse can grow to be 100s of ft tall and flick Strange into orbit. He is a high herald whether you hataz want to believe it or not.

With prep? Definitely beings approaching the Cosmic level.

"High Herald" or not, Classic Strange is beyond anything Apoc can dream of, frankly.

When did I say otherwise? You were acting as if colossus mentioning Apoc in the same sentence as Superman or Thor is a once in a life time honour for him.

If Apoc is fail then so is Thor. Absorbing Man compared him to Thor and Hulk.

Thor, Superman, Loki, and Captain Marvel alike would beat Apoc for the majority. It's an honor for Ol' Blue Lips to mentioned in the same breath as characters who aren't phailtastic.

Then Absorbing Man has an unusually high opinion of Apocalypse.

That one statement would be like the highlight of an Apocalypse respect thread.

TheTyrant
Harbinger of APocalypse was stated to be even weaker than Apocalypse himself. Yet the Harbinger casually wrecked a decent avengers line-up and could adapt on the spot like Amazo or Super Adaptoid or Fury even.

Ok how about you show me a fightwhere a fully powered Apocalypse actually loses if he is so fail?

xmarksthespot
I don't think you really get the point here.

It's like when someone asks whether a pair of jeans makes them look fat. It's not the jeans. You're just fat.

That is the essence of Apocalypse's fail.

Since we've moved past denial and anger to bargaining, I'd suggest you just skip depression and go straight to acceptance.

TheTyrant
How is Apocalyse full of fail when he has ruled over the earth and been worshipped as god? How is he fail if Cable himself said that Apocalypse destroys the Avengers in the near future?

Apoc is a greeaat character. Definately better than the overrated ones like Superman or Silver Surfer. Thor and Marvel are alright.

psycho gundam
you tell em

xmarksthespot
To be a great character you actually need to have... oh I dunno... some semblance of character at all.

OMG he beat person... OMG he did this feat... does not a character make. Apocalypse is in the strange predicament of not actually having done anything to garner this type of attention and yet still attracting bizarrely fervent followers.

TheTyrant
And how does Superman have character?

That reality was destroyed when Thor went back in time and warned his younger self to not take over Midgard. As far as we are concerned, that never happened. Like Beyonder ne'er happened because he was retconned.

That's not character. Superman is a crappy character just like Son G..u from dragon....

Sure they did inspire alot of other characters, but they have no depth to them. Apocalypse on the other hand was born as a slave to Ozumandias. He actually worked to get to where he is now unlike Superman who just got his powers.

Apocalypse is the second most famous x-men villain and damn near everyone from Loki to High Evo to Avengers to Fantastic Four know who he is and what he does.

Superman trying to control his powers so he doesn't crush people when he hugs them or shake their hands isn't "working for it?"

And Superman isn't perfect. Anyone who reads Superman, whether they like him or not, knows he's not. He has plenty of flaws and weaknesses.

Being worshiped by a bunch of primitive people who'd think Angel is a god isn't impressive. And it's also a far cry from ruling over the world which you claimed.

The Dark Phoenix Saga is a quintessential classic X-Men arc, from the days of pre-crisis Claremont.

i can't relly make him sound more complex than what is already quite "common knowledge" for those that know apocalypse's character design. he can't win in 616 cause his ideologies clash with soo many characters good and bad. he'd have to either kill most of them (age of apocalypse) or ally with them somehow. he can't have things his way and that's the flaw of his character

It did take years of practice learning how to live like a normal "human", much less mastering his powers to great effect.

He's not perfect, though. People can think he is, doesn't make it so. And Superman knows he's not perfect. He's made mistakes and has flaws just like everybody else.

It's just you.

It has nothing to do with winning or losing or plans succeeding. That isn't the essence of his fail. The cliched origin, conception and motivation, poor design (imo), crap execution, lack of development is what makes for a crap character.

The constant losing is just the factor that makes it confounding that such a poor character manages to garner a following, since usually that only happens to crap characters that do impressive things like SuperEmo Prime or Craptry.

psycho gundam
you can't get blood from a stone (please don't spin that sad )apocalypse is as developed as he's going to get, he's a being that has deemed himself superior than all others (even verging on talking shit about celestials). but him not winning is part of the problem, he won't change his views nor his approach in making them reality.

so his many flaws out of the way; how could you not like the arrogant darwinian stance he has? he was right in the distant past when he stated that "mutants" were the next step, he was proven correct thousands of years later and up till that point he was a self-styled god and tyrant pushing his weight around.

bad...ass

Compare a villain like apocalypse to someone like dr doom...

It's like comparing an adult (victor) to en Sabah nur...

He'll even dr dooms name means winner...
And as far as learning/perfecting crazy tech ask reed about that shit
though as a character reed is usually pretty stale..

I prefer strife or genesis to be more intereting villains...

I prefer strife or genesis to be more intereting villains... well doom actually carries conversations with other characters, apocalypse just ruins their lives. if the dude actually was written into more of the main universe and not just relegated to an x-men special event villain, he'd have a ton more moments to shine.

"as far as learning/perfecting crazy tech ask reed about that shit".

^ reed is great with tech, but if you mean celestial teck is just "crazy tech", you'd be understating it. clossest parallel reed has in terms of using space god level tech is the UN, but he can only use it, not learn how to build one nor understand it's workings faster than apocalypse given the same time with it if they both were clueless about it before hand.

Yeah Apoc is pretty much the only major X-Villain to not appear in any of the movies.

That's because Apocalypse sucks. His like a walking failure machine.

I remember when the Living Monolith was powerful. Then it was revealed Apocalypse created it and it was downhill from there. smile

Don't we have any Apocalypse fans on this board? It's no fun ragging on him if no one gets upset about it.

Also, I would like to say that Superman is definately perfect and damn near flawless. I remember reading a story where a freak accident caused the evil sides of Batman, Black Canary, Green Arrow, and Hawkman to come out. But the funny thing is that Superman was included in that group while the accident took place, but nothing happened to him because he had no evil side. It was literally stated that Superman has no evil side to him.

How is that not perfect?

As for the thread, I would say someone like Tyrant without prep and someone like Eternity with prep.

Superman's also been mind controlled/bloodlusted against his peers before. If he was perfect, his mind wouldn't be able to be taken over. He's also admitted his own flaws such as perhaps doing too much for people at times, inadvertantly feeding their whole messiah like complex for how they look at him. He's even admitted when he has looked down or flat out underestimated people less powerful than him.

He might be a genuinely good person, perhaps the best of the brightest in the DC, but he's not perfect. Not even Pre-Crisis Superman was perfect.
